An airplane is preparing to land at an airport. It is 44,8000 feet above the ground and is descending at the rate of 3,100 feet per minute. At the same​ airport, another airplane is taking off and will ascend at the rate of 2,500 feet per minute. When will the two airplanes be at the same altitude and what will that altitude​ be? Use two other methods to solve the problem. Explain which methods are easier to use and which are more difficult to use for the situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Time: 8 minutes

Altitude: 20000ft

Method 1 is easiest

Method 3 is easiest

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Airplane 1:

[tex]Height = 44800 ft[/tex]

[tex]Descending\ Rate = 3100ft/min[/tex]

Airplane 2:

[tex]Ascending\ Rate = 2500ft/min[/tex]

Required

Determine when both planes would be at the same altitude?

Let the minute be represented by m

For Airplane 1, Its altitude at any height h is:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = Height - Descending\ Rate * m[/tex]

It is minus (-) because the airplane is descending

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

For Airplane 2, Its altitude at any height h is:

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = Ascending\ Rate * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500 * m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Method 1:

For both heights to be equal, we have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = Airplane\ 2[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 2500m[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]44800 = 2500m + 3100m[/tex]

[tex]44800 = 5600m[/tex]

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Hence, the time they will be at the same altitude is 8 minutes

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Hence, they will be at the same altitude at 20000ft

Method 2:

We have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Since they are to be at the same altitude, then

The difference in their altitude must be 0

i.e.

[tex]Airplane\ 1 - Airplane\ 2 = 0[/tex]

This gives

[tex]44800 - 3100m - 2500m = 0[/tex]

[tex]44800 - 5600m = 0[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 24800[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Method 3:

We have that:

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 2 = 2500m[/tex]

Since they are to be at the same altitude, then

The ratio of their altitudes must be 1

i.e.

[tex]\frac{Airplane\ 1}{Airplane\ 2} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{44800 - 3100m}{2500m} = 1[/tex]

Cross Multiply

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 1 * 2500m[/tex]

[tex]44800 - 3100m = 2500m[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]44800 = 2500m + 3100m[/tex]

[tex]44800 = 5600m[/tex]

[tex]5600m = 44800[/tex]

[tex]m = 44800/5600[/tex]

[tex]m = 8\ min[/tex]

Substitute 8 for m in

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100m[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 3100 * 8[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 44800 - 24800[/tex]

[tex]Airplane\ 1 = 20000\ ft[/tex]

Hence;

Their altitudes must be 20000ft

Though the three methods applied uses the same logic at some point, the first method applied is still the easiest and it is a straight forward method that could be applied in solving the question.

Method 3 is the most difficult.

first, i’d put the fraction into a decimal, then distribute, for example the fraction would be multiplied by y and 3 separately. then equal that to 40. it should now be a simple equation

Answer:

y = 69

Step-by-step explanation:

start with the distributive property:

5/9 * y and 5/9 * 3

and now you have: 5/9y + 15/9 = 40

and we have to isolate y so subtract 15/9 from both sides:

5/9y + 15/9 = 40

        - 15/9     -15/9

and now you have 5/9y = 345/9

and now divide both sides by 5/9 so: 5/9y divided by 5/9 = y

and 345/9 divided by 5/9 = 345/5 and lets simplify....

y= 69

Answers

Complete Question:

Let x and y be positive integers and x be greater than y.

11x/11y = ?

Answer:

11x/11y = x/y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x > y

Required

11x/11y

From the question, we understand that x is greater than y (i.e. x > y)

Also, we'll assume that y ≠ 0, in other not to result in an undefined result.

So,

11x/11y

Divide the numerator and denominator by 11

(11x ÷ 11)/(11y ÷ 11)

The result of the division is:

(x)/(y)

x/y

Hence,

11x/11y = x/y for x > y and y ≠ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \sf{ - 6x + 13 = - 5(7 + 6x) }[/tex]

Distribute -5 through the parentheses

[tex]\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 6x + 13 =  - 5 \times 7  + ( - 5 )\times 6x}}[/tex]

[tex]\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 6x  + 13 =  - 35 + ( - 30x)}}[/tex]

A company has a manufacturing plant that is producing quality jackets. They find that in order to produce 150 jackets in a month, it will cost $5500. Also , to produce 370 jackets in a month , it will cost $8580 . Find an equation in the form y = mx + b , where is the number of jackets produced in a month and y is the monthly cost to do so.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 14x + 3400[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent

- number of jackets with x

- costs of jackets with y

So, we have:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (150,5500)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (370,8580)[/tex]

Required

Write an equation in form of y = mx + b

First, we need to determine the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{8580 - 5500}{370 - 150}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{3080}{220}[/tex]

[tex]m = 14\\[/tex]

The equation is calculated using:

[tex]y-y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

Where

[tex]m = 14\\[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (150,5500)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y - 5500 = 14(x - 150)[/tex]

[tex]y - 5500 = 14x - 2100[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = 14x - 2100 + 5500[/tex]

[tex]y = 14x + 3400[/tex]

At the city museum child admission is $5.40 and adult admission is $9.40. On Wednesday, 168 tickets were sold for a total sales of $1199.20. How many adult tickets were sold that day?

Answers

Given:

Selling price of child ticket = $5.40

Selling price of adult ticket = $9.40

Total tickets = 168

Total sales = $1199.20

To find:

The number of adult tickets sold.

Solution:

Let x be the number of child tickets and y be the number of adult tickets.

Total tickets : [tex]x+y=168[/tex]          ...(i)

Total sales : [tex]5.40x+9.40y=1199.20[/tex]      ...(ii)

From equation (i), we get

[tex]x=168-y[/tex]

Put this value in (ii).

[tex]5.40(168-y)+9.40y=1199.20[/tex]

[tex]907.2-5.40y+9.40y=1199.20[/tex]

[tex]4y=1199.20-907.2[/tex]

[tex]4y=292[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4.

[tex]y=\dfrac{292}{4}[/tex]

[tex]y=73[/tex]

Therefore, 73 adult tickets were sold that day.

Points (-2, 3) and (x, 0) have a slope of 1/5.Find the x coordinate of the point.

Answers

Answer:

x = -17

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 3 = 1/5(x - (-2))

y - 3 = 1/5(x + 2)

y - 3 = 1/5x + 0.4

y = 1/5x + 0.4 + 3

y = 1/5x + 3.4

Now we plug in y as 0 to find x

y = 1/5x + 3.4

(0) = 1/5x + 3.4

-3.4 = 1/5x + 3.4 - 3.4

-3.4 = 1/5x times 5

-3.4 times 5 = x

-17 = x

Answer:

x = -17 (Verified Answer) ✅

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know the slope, we can solve for an unknown coordinate. First, let's review how to calculate slope.

Slope = Rise/Run (Change in y/Change in x)

In this case, we know the slope, so we will write out the slope formula. We will use the substitution method to solve this.

m = rise/run

rise = y2- y1 substituting ----> 3 - 0 = 3

run = x2 - x1 substituting ----> -2 - x = run

Now, we can return to the slope formula, as we now have enough information to solve.

1/5 = 3/R

To solve, we simply need to find the equivalent fraction of 1/5. We will use a proportion.

1R = 5 x 3

R = 15

Now that we know R, we can substitute it into the equation for run.

So, we now have:

15 = -2 - x

Subtracting -2 from both sides, gives us x = -17.

Finally, we must check our answer to make sure we are getting the correct slope when we calculate.

m = (3 - 0)/(-2 - -17)

m = 3/15 OR 1/5

Since. this matches the original slope we were given, we can be sure the answer is correct.

There are 625 trees in the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that there are x trees in the park

∵ The number of trees in the park = x

27% of them are oaks

16% are pins

33% of them are banyans

∵ The remaining are willows

→ The percentage of the total number of trees is 100%

∴ The percent of the remaining = 100% - (27 + 16 + 33)%

∴ The percent of the remaining = 100% - 76%

The percent of the remaining = 24%

∵ The number of willows trees = 150

24% of x = 150

∴ 24% × x = 150

→ Change the percent to a decimal by divide it by 100

∵ 24% = [tex]\frac{24}{100}[/tex] = 0.24

∴ 0.24 × x = 150

∴ 0.24x = 150

→ Divide both sides by 0.24

x = 625

There are 625 trees at the park.
