PART 1.
Going westward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450-wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450-wind speed)
Going eastward:
Distance: 2400 miles
Rate (this is speed): (450+wind_speed) mph
Time: distance / speed = 2400 / (450+wind speed)
PART 2
Formula for speed:
speed = distance / time
Now we solve this for time:
time = distance / speed
11h = 2400 / (450+-wind_speed)
+- sign is put because in one case wind increases speed of plane and in other case it decreases speed.
PART 3
To solve for wind_speed we start by rearranging formula so that we have wind_speed on left side:
(450+-wind_speed) = 2400 / 11
(450+-wind_speed) = 218mph
To fly this distance in 11h speed of plane must be 218mph.
The only way to get this solution is if we substract wind speed:
450-wind_speed = 218
wind_speed = 450-218 = 232mph
Answer:
x is less than or equal to 0
Step-by-step explanation:
- you need to multiply both sides of the inequality by 5/2
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 5
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2
- any expression multiplied by 0 equals 0
- so you get x is less than or equal to 0
^^^ hope this helps! :)
J-10=35
add 10 to both sides of the equal sign to isolate j
j=45
