Is it number15?
then it is
3x = 180
x = 60
x will be 60
3* ( 1/3 -5)= -14 hope this helps
Since Krystal and Scott is heading on opposite
directions, therefore the distance between the two would be the sum of their
distances from where they left, so:
total distance (d) = distance covered by Krystal (dK) +
distance covered by Scott (dS)
d = dK + dS
We know that the formula for distance is:
distance = velocity * time
So,
d = vK * t + vS * t
where
vK = velocity of Krystal = 61 mph
vS = velocity of Scott = 65 mph
d = 252 miles
Therefore:
252 = 61 t + 65 t
126 t = 252
t = 2 hours
Therefore Scott needs to travel for 2 hours.
Answer:
The velocity of jet in still air is 
and velocity of wind is
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the rate of the jet in still air and y be the rate of the wind.
Given:
Velocity against wind, a jet travels 2160 miles in 3 hours.
Velocity against wind 
Flying with the wind, same jet travels 6000 miles in 6 hours.
Flying with the wind 
As such its velocity against wind is 
and with wind is
therefore
------------(1)
---------------(2)
Adding equation 1 and 2.
Put x value in equation 2
Hence velocity of jet in still air is and velocity of wind is
.
