It is always too 100.0 so one decimal place
Answer:
rate of the plane in still air is 33 miles per hour and the rate of the wind is 11 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We will make a table of the trip there and back using the formula distance = rate x time
d = r x t
there
back
The distance there and back is 264 miles, so we can split that in half and put each half under d:
d = r x t
there 132
back 132
It tells us that the trip there is with the wind and the trip back is against the wind:
d = r x t
there 132 = (r + w)
back 132 = (r - w)
Finally, the trip there took 3 hours and the trip back took 6:
d = r * t
there 132 = (r + w) * 3
back 132 = (r - w) * 6
There's the table. Using the distance formula we have 2 equations that result from that info:
132 = 3(r + w) and 132 = 6(r - w)
We are looking to solve for both r and w. We have 2 equations with 2 unknowns, so we will solve the first equation for r, sub that value for r into the second equation to solve for w:
132 = 3r + 3w and
132 - 3w = 3r so
44 - w = r. Subbing that into the second equation:
132 = 6(44 - w) - 6w and
132 = 264 - 6w - 6w and
-132 = -12w so
w = 11
Subbing w in to solve for r:
132 = 3r + 3(11) and
132 = 3r + 33 so
99 = 3r and
r = 33
Answer: Mary
Step-by-step explanation:
Tobey 432 yards is 1296 foots
Mary 1/4 mile is 1320 foots
You didnt mark what kind of measurment Finn has but I assume it's foots, then Mary wins!
(Tobey 1296)
(Finn 1300)
(Mary 1320)
Answer:
C. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
to divide by a fraction multiply by the recirpocal of that fraction.
8/3 ÷ 9/4
reduce the numbers with GCF 4 which equals 2/3 x 9
reduce the numbers with GCF 3 which equals 2x3= 6
Answer:
Parentheses
Step-by-step explanation:
These are used to single out a part of an equation, and most times you solve the equation in these before you solve anything else.
