10. Plane A is flying at an altitude of 5000 feet. It starts descending (going down) at a rate of 100 feet per minute. Plane B i

s flying at an altitude of 4100 feet. It starts ascending (going up) at a rate of 50 feet per minute. If the planes start changing altitude at the same time, how many minutes until they are flying at the same altitude?​

It takes 6 minutes until they are flying at the same altitude..

Since Plane A is flying at an altitude of 5000 feet. It starts descending (going down) at a rate of 100 feet per minute, in time t, it descends a distance of 100t.

So, its distance from its original altitude is d = 5000 - 100t. (negative since it is descending)

Also, Plane B is flying at an altitude of 4100 feet. It starts ascending (going up) at a rate of 50 feet per minute. In time t, it ascends a distance of 50t.

So, its distance from its original altitude is D = 4100 + 50t. (positive since it is ascending)

So, to find the time the planes are flying at the same altitude, d = D

So, 5000 - 100t = 4100 + 50t

So, 5000 - 4100 = 100t + 50t

900 = 150t

dividing through by 150, we have

t = 900/150

t = 6 minutes

So, it takes 6 minutes until they are flying at the same altitude.

Factor the following:
4 p (4 p - 1) - 3 (4 p - 1)^2

Factor 4 p - 1 from 4 p (4 p - 1) - 3 (4 p - 1)^2:
(4 p - 1) (4 p - 3 (4 p - 1))

-3 (4 p - 1) = 3 - 12 p:
(4 p - 1) (4 p + 3 - 12 p)

Grouping like terms, 4 p - 12 p + 3 = 3 + (4 p - 12 p):
(4 p - 1) (3 + (4 p - 12 p))
4 p - 12 p = -8 p:

Answer:  (4 p - 1) (-8 p + 3)

Factor the following:
m (m + n) - 3 m (m + n)^2

Factor m + n out of m (m + n) - 3 m (m + n)^2, resulting in (m + n) (m - 3 m (m + n)^(2 - 1)):
(m + n) (m - 3 m (m + n)^(2 - 1))

2 - 1 = 1:
(m + n) (m - 3 m (m + n))

Factor m out of m - 3 m (m + n), resulting in m (1 - 3 (m + n)):
m (1 - 3 (m + n)) (m + n)

-3 (m + n) = -3 m - 3 n:
Answer:  m (m + n) (-3 m - 3 n + 1)

Factor the following:
6 u^2 (2 u - 5)^2 - 12 u^2 (2 u - 5) (u + 5)

Factor u^2 out of 6 u^2 (2 u - 5)^2 - 12 u^2 (2 u - 5) (u + 5), resulting in u^2 (6 (2 u - 5)^2 - 12 (2 u - 5) (u + 5)):
u^2 (6 (2 u - 5)^2 - 12 (2 u - 5) (u + 5))

(2 u - 5) (2 u - 5) = (2 u) (2 u) + (2 u) (-5) + (-5) (2 u) + (-5) (-5) = 4 u^2 - 10 u - 10 u + 25 = 4 u^2 - 20 u + 25:
u^2 (6 4 u^2 - 20 u + 25 - 12 (2 u - 5) (u + 5))

6 (4 u^2 - 20 u + 25) = 24 u^2 - 120 u + 150:
u^2 (24 u^2 - 120 u + 150 - 12 (2 u - 5) (u + 5))

(u + 5) (2 u - 5) = (u) (2 u) + (u) (-5) + (5) (2 u) + (5) (-5) = 2 u^2 - 5 u + 10 u - 25 = 2 u^2 + 5 u - 25:u^2 (150 - 120 u + 24 u^2 - 122 u^2 + 5 u - 25)

-12 (2 u^2 + 5 u - 25) = -24 u^2 - 60 u + 300:
u^2 (-24 u^2 - 60 u + 300 + 24 u^2 - 120 u + 150)

Grouping like terms, 24 u^2 - 24 u^2 - 60 u - 120 u + 150 + 300 = (-120 u - 60 u) + (24 u^2 - 24 u^2) + (150 + 300):
u^2 ((-120 u - 60 u) + (24 u^2 - 24 u^2) + (150 + 300))

-120 u - 60 u = -180 u:
u^2 (-180 u + (24 u^2 - 24 u^2) + (150 + 300))
150 + 300 = 450:
u^2 (-180 u + (24 u^2 - 24 u^2) + 450)

24 u^2 - 24 u^2 = 0:
u^2 (450 - 180 u)

Factor 90 out of 450 - 180 u:
Answer:  u^2×90 (5 - 2 u)

Una recta con pendiente -2 ´pasa por el punto P(5, -1). La abscisa del punto Q que está en esa recta es 1. Encuentre la ordenada
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

La ordenada de Q es 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

La ecuación de una recta es:

y = a*x + b

donde a es la pendiente y b es la ordenada al origen.

Para este problema, sabemos que la pendiente es -2

Entonces:

a = -2

y = -2*x + b

También sabemos que esta recta pasa por el punto (5, -1)

Esto significa que cuando evaluamos la ecuación en x = 5, y toma el valor y = -1

Si reemplazamos esos valores en la ecuación, obtenemos:

-1 = -2*5 + b

-1 = -10 + b

-1 + 10 = b

9 = b

Entonces la ecuación de la recta es:

y = -2*x + 9

Sabemos que el punto Q está en la línea, y la abscisa de este punto es 1.

Entonces este punto es Q (1, k)

donde k es la ordenada de este punto.

Porque nuestra línea también pasa por este punto, podemos concluir que cuando x = 1, y = k

Reemplazando eso en la ecuación tenemos:

k = -2*1 + 9 = -2 + 9 = 7

k = 7

La ordenada de Q es 7.
