Time taken is equal to distance divided by speed
So time is 50/5 = 10 seconds
Let x = the numbers of girls
thus
the numbers of boys = 2x
x + 2x = 27
3x = 27
x = 9
2x = 2 . 9 =18
girls = 9 & boys = 18
Answer:
Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour
Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Time taken with wind = 5 hour
Time taken against wind = 6 hour
Assume;
Speed of wind = s
So,
Speed of Plane with wind = (260 + s) miles per hour
Speed of Plane against wind = (260 - s) miles per hour
Distance = speed x time
So,
(260 + s)5 = (260 - s)6
1,300 + 5s = 1,560 - 6s
11s = 260
s = 23.63 miles per hour
Speed of wind = 23.63 miles per hour
Plane speed in still air = 260 miles per hour
Answer:
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
Explanation:
Let the size of old square room be a x a.
New dimension = ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 )
We have area of the new room will be 144 square feet greater than the area of the original room.
So, ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 ) = a x a + 144
a²+10a+24= a²+144
10a = 120
a = 12 feet.
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
