A helicopter flies 312 miles against the wind in 2 hours; with the wind, it can fly 468 miles in the same amount of time. Find the speed of the helicopter in still air.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

78miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

If a helicopter flies 312 miles against the wind in 2 hours, the speed of the helicopter in air is expressed as shown;

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed = 312miles/2hours

Speed = 156miles/hr

The speed of the helicopter against the wind is 156miles/hr

If it can fly 468 miles in the same amount of time, the speed during this time at this distance will be;

speed = 468 miles/2hours

Speed = 234miles/hr

The speed of the helicopter in still air = Speed while flying - Speed while against the wind

The speed of the helicopter in still air = 234miles/hr - 156miles/hr

The speed of the helicopter in still air  = 78miles/hour

What is the graph of two variables that are directly proportional to one another?

Answers

The graph is a straight line that passes through the origin.

For instance, the linear equation y = 6x is a direct proportion.

If the line doesn't pass through the origin, then it's not a direct proportion. The equation y = 2x+5 for instance is not a direct proportion.

-13=7d+64 what is the answer

Answers

Step 1: move 64 to a left side, -13 - 64 = 7d

Step 2: -77 = 7d

Step 3: (-77)/(7) = d

Step 4: d = -11
it is d=11
because u subtract the negative 64 with a positive for a positive and negative turn 0 then u got to do the same side with -13-(-64)=7d then u add -13+-64=77 after u done that it will be 77=7d divide it by 7 on both side then u get d=11

What is the surface area of a sphere with the given dimension? Express your answer to nearest hundredth. Use 3.14 for pi.Radius = 5cm.
a. 982 sq. cm
C. 314 sq.cm
b. 1481.34 sq.cm
d. 628 sq. cm

Answers

Answer:

314cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area(sphere) =4πr²

4 * 3.14 * (5²)

4 * 3.14 * 25

Hence, Surface area is 314sq.cm

The best answer is C 314 sq.cm because that is the use of pi
