if a plane can travel 490 miles per hour with the wind and 450 miles per hour against the wind, find the speed of the plane without a wind and the speed of the wind.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: s=plane's speed
w=windspeed


travels490 mh with wind
450 agains wind



s+w=490mph
s-w=450
add them toegether

s+w=490
s-w=450 +
2s+0w=940

2s=940
divide by 2
s=470
find wind speed
s+w=490
470+w=490
w=20

windspeed=20mph
planespeed=470mph

Answer 2
Answer: The accurate answer will be 470mi/hour

What is the value of the fourth term in a geometric sequence for which a=15 and r= 1/3

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

the n-ieme term is : An=A1×r^(n-1)

A1 the first term       r : the common ratio

in this exercice : A1 =15        r = 1/3      n = 4

A4=15×(1/3)^(4) =15×4^4 =3840    

A parabola intersects the x-axis at x=3, equals, 3 and x=9.

Answers

Answer: x is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

where a and b are x intercepts given to us.

So rewriting in factored form:

y = (x-3)(x-9)

so now you have to simplify it using the formula y=ax^(2)+bx-c

y= x^(2)- 12x+27

so with this formula x=(-b)/(2a) we can find the x coordinate

x=(-(-12))/(2(1))

and the answer would be 6
