Answer:

\huge\fbox{Answer ☘}

\bold\blue{190 \:miles/hr \:and \:170 \:miles/hr}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of faster plane be x

therefore ,

speed of slower plane = x - 20

As the time taken is same ,

\frac{285}{x}  =  \frac{255}{x - 20}  \\  \\  \frac{57}{x}  =  \frac{51}{x - 20}  \\  \\ 57(x - 20) = 51x \\  \\ 6x = 1140 \\  \\ x = 190

therefore ,

faster plane travels at a speed of 190 miles/hr

while..

the slower plane travels at a speed = ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎( 190-20 ) miles/hr

‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎=> 170 miles/hr

hope helpful~

At the local market, Bill buys 3 juice boxes and 2 hot dogs at a cost of $8, while Sarah buys 2 juice boxes and 1 hot dog at a c
baherus [9]

Answer:

The cost of each juice boxes is $ 2

The cost of each hot dogs is $ 1  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The amount which Bill pays for 3 juice boxes and 2 hot dogs = $ 8

The amount which Sarah pays for 2 juice boxes and 1 hot dogs = $ 5

Let The cost of each juice boxes = $ j

And The cost of each hot dogs = $ h

Now, According to question

3 j + 2 h = 8               .........A

2 j + 1 h = 5                 ..........B

Now, solving the equations

2 × (  2 j + 1 h ) = 2 × 5

or, 4 j + 2 h = 10

I.e ( 4 j + 2 h ) - ( 3 j + 2 h ) = 10 - 8

Or, ( 4 j - 3 j ) + ( 2 j - 2 h ) = 2

Or, j + 0 = 2

∴  j = 2

So , The cost of each juice boxes = j = $ 2

Now, Put the value of j in Eq A

I.e  3 × 2 + 2 h = 8

Or, 6 + 2 h = 8

Or. 2 h = 8 - 6

or, 2 h = 2

∴   h = \frac{2}{2} = 1

So, The cost of each hot dogs = h = $ 1

Hence The cost of each juice boxes is $ 2

And The cost of each hot dogs is $ 1  . Answer

A rectangle has a length of 80 units and a width of 39 units. Find the length of the diagonal.
levacccp [35]
Equation = a² + b² = c²

a = 80
b = 39
c = Diagonal

a² + b² = c²
80² + 39² = c²
6400 + 1521 = c²
   c² = 7921
   c  = √7921
   c  = 89

 Answer = 89 units
