Answer:
679.125
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe that quotient means divide. So you divide. put 5,433 in the box. then on the side put 8
If you put this info into a distance/rate/time table, you would have "against the wind" and "with the wind" as your 2 situations. If the distance from PA to AZ is 1800 miles, then the distance backwards, from AZ to PA is 1800 miles also. That number would go into the distance category for both situations. The rate is what we are looking for. The rate for "against the wind" is the speed of the plane minus the speed of the wind since the wind is blowing into the plane, slowing it down a bit. That looks like this: p - w where p is the speed of the plane and w is the speed of the wind. The rate for "with the wind" is p + w since the wind is pushing the plane along with it, making it fly faster. It took 3.6 hours to get from PA to AZ (you have to convert the 36 minutes into hours) and it took 3 hours to go from AZ to PA. In table form that looks like this:
distance = rate x time
against wind 1800 = p - w x 3.6
with wind 1800 = p + w x 3
Since distance = rate times time, then the first equation going along in the first row is 1800 = 3.6(p - w) and
1800 = 3.6p - 3.6w
Going along in the second row we have 1800 = 3p + 3w. Let's solve this equation for p: 1800 - 3w = 3p and dividing everything by 3 we have
600 - w = p. Now we have a viable substitution to make into the first equation we wrote. If p = 600 - w, then 1800 = 3.6(600 - w) - 3.6w
and 1800 = 2160 - 3.6w - 3.6w. Combining like terms we have
-360 = -7.2w and solving for w we have that w = 50. That means that the speed of the wind is 50 mph. Now we can sub that value in for w to solve for p. 600 - w = p so 600 - 50 = p. That means that p = 550mph. The wind blows at a rate of 50 mph while the plane travels at a rate of 550 mph. There you go!
⅝ of the votes were for blue. That leaves ⅜ of the votes remaining. 5/9 of the remaining ⅜ votes were for green, so you multiply 5/9 x ⅜ = 15/72 votes for green. ⅝ of the votes were for blue, so you can multiply the fraction by 9/9 to get 45/72. So 45/72 votes were for blue, and 15/72 votes were for green. That leaves 12/72 votes remaining, which were for red. Since the question says 48 votes out of the total number of votes were for red, this means 48/v = 12/72 (v = the total number of votes). Cross multiply and solve for v to get v = 288. The fraction for blue is ⅝, so you can say x/288 = ⅝ (x = the number of votes for blue). Cross multiply and solve for x to get x = 180 votes for blue.
Answer:
JL ≈ 32
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle JKL has a side of JK = 24 and we are asked to find side JL. The triangle JKL is a right angle triangle.
Let us find side the angle J first from the triangle JKM. Angle JMN is 90°(angle on a straight line).
using the cosine ratio
cos J = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos J = 18/24
cos J = 0.75
J = cos⁻¹ 0.75
J = 41.4096221093
J ≈ 41.41°
Let us find the third angle L of the triangle JKL .Sum of angle in a triangle = 180°. Therefore, 180 - 41.41 - 90 = 48.59
Angle L = 48.59
°.
Using sine ratio
sin 48.59
° = opposite/hypotenuse
sin 48.59
° = 24/JL
cross multiply
JL sin 48.59
° = 24
divide both sides by sin 48.59
°
JL = 24/sin 48.59
°
JL = 24/0.74999563751
JL = 32.0001861339
JL ≈ 32
