The wind is blowing at the rate of 4 miles per hour

<h3>Speed and distances</h3>

The formula for calculating speed is expressed as:

Speed = Distance/Time

Given the following parameters

Speed of airplane = 18 miles per hour

Speed in wind = 2.2 * 10  = 22 miles/hr

Speed of the wind = 22 - 18

Speed of the wind = 4mi/hr

Hence the wind is blowing at the rate of 4 miles per hour

WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST PLZ HELP
nignag [31]
The formula is
I=prt
I interest earned 14.65
P initial deposit ?
R interest rate 0.025
T time 2 years
Plug in the formula
14.65=p×0.025×2
Solve for p
14.65=0.05p
Divide both sides by 0.05
P=14.65/0.05
P=293....answer

Hope it helps!

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (-8, -1) and a directrix at y = − 4.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a parabola which opens upwards.

The distance of a point (x, y)  from the focus is

√[(x -  -8)^2  + (y - -1)^2] and

the distance of the point from the line y = -4

= y - -4

These distances are equal for a parabola so:

√[(x -  -8)^2  + (y - -1)^2] = y + 4

Squaring both sides:

(x + 8)^2 + (y + 1)^2  = (y + 4)^2

x^2 + 16x + 64 + y^2 + 2y + 1 = y^2 + 8y + 16

x^2 + 16x + 64 + 1 - 16 = 8y - 2y

6y = x^2 + 16x + 49

y = 1/6 x^2 + 8/3 x + 49/6 is the equation of the parabola.

Given the north and east coordinates of point A (400,100), and point B (60,470), what are the distance and bearing from point A
Ugo [173]
Well to find distance subtract A. and B. from each other this should give you (340,370). Subtracting this is the quickest way to find range.
