Answer:rate of the plane in still air is 7 mph

the rate of wind is 1.55 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the rate of the plane in still air.

Let y represent the rate of wind.

Togo flew his ultralight plane to a Landing field 30 miles away. With the wind, the flight took three and a half hours. This means that total speed = (x + y) mph

Distance = speed × time

Therefore

30 = 3.5(x + y)

30 = 3.5x + 3.5y - - - - - - - - - 1

Returning against the wind, the flight took 5 1/2 hours. This means that the total speed would be

(x - y) mph

Therefore,

30 = 5.5(x - y)

30 = 5.5x - 5.5y - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 5.5 and equation 2 by 3.5, it becomes

165 = 19.25x + 19.25y

105 = 19.25x - 19.25y

Adding both equations, it becomes

270 = 38.5x

x = 270/38.5

x = 7 miles per hour

30 = 5.5 × 7 - 5.5y

30 = 38.5 - 5.5y

5.5y = 38.5 - 30 = 8.5

y = 8.5/5.5 = 1.55 miles per hour

The population of a town is decreasing at a rate of 3.2% per year. In 2015, there were 14,250 people. What is the first year tha
notsponge [240]
The answer is D
you would set up an equation like this
14,250 x .032
this will give you how much the population is decreasing per year. Which is 456 people per year.
You then take 2015 and find the difference between that number and 2025 and do it with all of the other years too.
For example 2025-2015 is 10 years
You then take 10 x 456 to tell you how much the of population you lost in those 10 years. You will then take that number which is 4,560 and do 14,250-4,560 to get 9,650.

Center: (-2,5), radius:7
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

(x + 2)² + (y - 5)² = 7²

Step-by-step explanation:

Incomplete question.  I believe you meant, "write the equation of the circle with center at (-2, 5) and radius 7.

That would be:

(x + 2)² + (y - 5)² = 7²

6x + 3(x + 1.15) gfgfdgfdgdfgfdgfggfdgfdgfddfdfgdfgdf
madreJ [45]

Answer:

9x+3.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

6x+3(x+1.15)

Distribute:

=6x+(3)(x)+(3)(1.15)

=6x+3x+3.45

Combine Like Terms:

=6x+3x+3.45

=(6x+3x)+(3.45)

=9x+3.45

Add the following polynomials:
All polynomials are already ordered according to their degree (exponent), and therefore you can just add straight down in columns.
For x3: 2 + 1 - 3 = 0
For x2: -4 + 6 + 2 = 4 
For x: 6 - 8 -4 = -6
Constants: -3 + 12 - 7 = 2

The answer is:
4x^2 - 6x + 2
