Jeff earned his pilot's license and flew to visit his brother 200 miles away. A headwind of 20 mph slowed down the plane's speed
lora16 [44]
<h2>Plane's speed without wind i s 117.68 mph</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have speed of plane without wind is x.

Distance to brothers place = 200 miles.

A headwind of 20 mph slowed down the plane's speed on the first leg of the trip

Speed to brothers place = x - 20

We have

         Distance = Speed x Time

         200=(x-20)\times t_1\\\\t_1=\frac{200}{x-20}

A tailwind of 20 mph sped up the plane on the return trip

Speed of return trip = x + 20

We have

         Distance = Speed x Time

         200=(x+20)\times t_2\\\\t_2=\frac{200}{x+20}

The entire trip took 3.5 hours.

That is

            t_1+t_2=3.5\\\\\frac{200}{x-20}+\frac{200}{x+20}=3.5\\\\200x+4000+2000x-4000=3.5(x-20)(x+20)\\\\400x=3.5x^2-1400\\\\7x^2-800x-2800=0\\\\\texttt{x = 117.68mph or x =-3.40mph}

Plane's speed without wind i s 117.68 mph

Answer:

The correct option is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a figure it dilated by scale factor k, then the image and preimage are similar figures and their corresponding sides are proportional.

In triangle I, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 1 units.

In triangle II, the base of the triangle is 1 unit and length of the perpendicular is 2 units.

\frac{1}{1}\neq \frac{1}{2}

The corresponding sides are not proportional. It means both triangles are not similar. So, there is no dilation transforming triangle I into triangle II.

Therefore the correct option is 4.

Caroline resting heart is 52 beats per minute (bpm). When she starts running her heart rate increases 1.25% each second until it
horsena [70]

Answer:74.55 beat per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Heart beat is 52 beat per minute

i.e. B=\frac{52}{60} beat per sec

If heart rate is increases 1.25 % each sec

suppose B is the heart beat at first second therefore heat beat at 2 nd second

B_2=B+1.25 \% B

B_2=B(1+1.25 \% )

For 3 rd sec

B_3=B(1+1.25\%)+1.25\%B(1+1.25\%)

B_3=B(1+1.25\%)^2

similarly for 3 sec

B_{30}=B(1+1.25\%)^{29}

B_{30}=1.433B

B_{30}=1.242\ \text{beat per second }

B_{30}=74.55\ \text{beat per minute}
