Answer:

wind speed =  25  miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

let a = speed of the wind

speed with the wind = 255 + a , since the wind is not against him

speed against the wind = 255 - a

travel time is same for against and withe wind

therefore,

speed = distance/time

time = distance/time

448/255 + a = 368/255 - a

cross multiply

448(255 - a) = 368(255 + a)

114240 - 448a = 93840  + 368a

114240 - 93840 = 448a + 368a

20400  = 816a

divide both sides by 816

a = 20400/816

a = 25  miles/hr

Your tutor asks you to record the time you spend using IT during the week. You have recorded this time below: Day Time Monday 0.
NikAS [45]

Let us convert all figures into decimals so that we can compare them easily.

Monday    0.3

Tuesday   15% = 0.15

Wednesday   1/6 = 0.1666

Thursday   0.2

Friday   1/8 = 0.125

Clearly, I spent the least amount of time on Friday using IT and the time is 0.125 or 1/8.

A rectangle and a triangle have the same area.
Ivanshal [37]
Area of a rectangle is length times width. Area of a triangle is one-half base times height. Now just plug in everything we know and set the equations equal to each other.

(6)(8) = 0.5(8)(h)

Solve for height

48 = 4h

h = 12 m

Arrange the summation expressions in increasing order of their values.
dolphi86 [110]
∑ 4 * 5^(i-1) = 4 + 20 + 100 + 500 = 624
∑ 3 * 4^(i-1) = 3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768 = 1,023
∑ 5*  6^(i-1) = 5 + 30 = 35
∑ 5^(i-1) = 1 + 5 + 25 + 125 = 156
Answer:
∑ (i=1, 2) 5 * 6^(i-1) < ∑ (i=1, 4) 5^(i-1) < ∑ (i=1, 4) 4 * 5^(i-1) <
< ∑ (i=1, 5) 3 * 4^(i-1)
