Answer:

6 seconds., 16800 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The first plane is going y = -3200x + 36000

The second plane is going y = 2800x

Substitute the second equation for y into the first one:

2800x = -3200x + 36000

6000x = 36000 (Add 3200x to both sides)

x = 6 (Divide each side by 6000)

That means they will be the same altitude at 6 minutes.

To find how high, put your answer into one of the equations.

y = 2800 (6)

y = 16,800 feet

What past paper is this, can you please put a link to the question paper that this question came from :
neonofarm [45]

Using proportions, considering the ratios, it is found that Danil receives 65.33 euros.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

Danil, gabriel and hadley share some money in the ratios 3:5:9. Hence, the fraction of the total amount that Danil and Hadley receive are given by:

D = \frac{3}{17}n

H = \frac{9}{17}n

The amount of money that hadley receives is 196 euros, hence the total amount is found as follows.

196 = \frac{9}{17}n

n = \frac{196 \times 17}{9}

n = 370.22.

Hence, the amount received by Danil is given by:

D = \frac{3}{17}n = \frac{3}{17} \times 370.22 = 65.33
