To solve for m;
39 = 3m -12
39+12 = 3m -12 + 12 (add 12 to both sides)
51 = 3m
51 ÷ 3 = m
17 =m
m =17
Hope that helps, let me know if you don't understand something :D
To solve the problem we will use this equation where,
d will be distance.
x is the speed of the plane without tailwind.
y is the speed of the wind affecting the plane.
Going to Philadelphia the speed of the plane affected by wind will be x-y=220 miles/hr
Coming back with a tailwind, the speed of the plane will be x+y= 280 miles/hr.
since time = distance / speed, t1 =d/220 and t2 = d/280
and since the total time traveled is 6.5hrs
d/220 + d/ 280 = 6.5hrs
d = 800.8 miles x 2 (back and forth trip) the answer is 1601.6 miles
sorry dont mind this I answered the wrong question
The correct answer is
B) 6 x 0.8
Robert Morris, generally considered the financier of the Revolution, donated ships from his fleet of tobacco-trading vessels and turned to privateering. Raiding British convoys, he became the richest man in America. He personally signed 6,000 notes to pay off Washington's troops when the war ended.
