Answer:
The rate (or speed) of the wind is 40 meters per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define:
S = speed (or rate) of the duck alone
S' = speed (or rate) of the wind.
When the duck travels with the wind, its speed is:
(S + S')
While when the duck travels against the wind, its speed is:
(S - S')
Also, remember the relation:
Distance = Speed*Time
ok, we know that the duck can travel a distance of 2400 m in 10 minutes with the wind, then:
2400m = (S + S')*10 min
And against the wind, it can travel 2/3 of that distance, then we can write:
(2/3)*2400m = (S - S')*10 min
Then we have a system of 2 equations:
2400m = (S + S')*10 min
(2/3)*2400m = (S - S')*10 min
We want to find the speed of the wind, then we want to find the value of S'.
To solve this, we first need to isolate S in one of the equations.
Let's isolate S in the first one:
2400m = (S + S')*10 min
2400m/10min = (S + S')
240 m/min = S + S'
240 m/min - S' = S
Now we can replace this in the other equation:
(2/3)*2400m = (S - S')*10 min
(2/3)*2400m = ( 240 m/min - S' - S')*10 min
Now let's solve this for S'
(2/3)*2400m/10min = 240 m/min - 2*S'
(2/3)*240 m/min = 240 m/min - 2*S'
2*S' = 240 m/min - (2/3)*240 m/min
2*S' = (1/3)*240 m/min
2*S' = 80 m/min
S' = (80 m/min)/2
S' = 40 m/min
The rate (or speed) of the wind is 40 meters per minute.

Is -2 a solution to 4x^(3)-x^(2)+16x-4
Answer:
Not a solution
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for [tex]x=-2[/tex] to be a solution, the result after substituting must be 0:
[tex]4(-2)^3-(-2)^2+16(-2)-4\stackrel{?}{=}0[/tex]
[tex]4(-8)-4-32-4\stackrel{?}{=}0[/tex]
[tex]-32-40\stackrel{?}{=}0[/tex]
[tex]-72\neq0[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]x=-2[/tex] is not a solution to [tex]4x^3-x^2+16x-4[/tex]
SOMEONE HELP ME ASAP IM STRESSING OUT
Answer:
Use SOHCAHTOA
Step-by-step explanation:
If you don't know what this is, it means Sin=opposite/hypotenuse, cos=adjacent/hypotenuse, tan=opposite/adjacent. There is more than 1 way to solve this, but here's how I did it.
Starting with part A, we are trying to find the hypotenuse of the triangle. We have an angle and the side opposite of that angle, so we can use the sin function.
Sin(54) = 12.2 / hypotenuse
Sin(54) * hypotenuse = 12.2
Hypotenuse = 12.2 / sin(54) = 15.1
Now for Part B
Finding the last angle
180-90-54=36
So now, we have this angle and the side adjacent to it. We are trying to find the opposite side, so let's use the tan function
Tan(36) = opp / 12.2
opp = tan(36) * 12.2 = 8.9
You can double check these answers using pythagorean theorem. Hope this helps
Which theorem proves that the triangles are congruent?
A. AAS
B. SSS
C. SAS
D. ASA
Answer:
D. ASA
Step-by-step explanation:
ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) is a proof of congruence when two triangles share two angles and the side between them.
Answer:
However, note further that the congruent sides are not included sides of the two relevant angles, in which case it won't be ASA but AAS.
Therefore, the two angles are congruent by the AAS Congruence Theorem and the correct answer is C.

Solve for n.
11(n – 1) + 35 = 3n
Answer:
n = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
11(n – 1) + 35 = 3n
Distribute
11n -11 +35 = 3n
Combine like terms
11n +24 = 3n
Subtract 11n from each side
11n+24 -11n = 3n -11n
24 = -8n
Divide by -8
24/-8 = -8n=-8
-3 =n

[tex]Pink = 2[/tex]
[tex]Blue = 3[/tex]
Required
[tex]P(Pink\ and\ Pink)[/tex]
This is calculated as:

i need the base and hight
Answer:
Height = 5 and Base = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The base of the parallelogram is twice the perpendicular height of the parallelogram. The area of the parallelogram is 50 cm².
Formula for area of parallelogram = base × height
Base = 2h
Height = h
∴ Area = 2h × h = 50
Solution:
2h × h = 50
2h² = 50
[tex]\frac{2h^{2} }{2} = \frac{50}{2}[/tex]
h² = 25
[tex]\sqrt{h^{2} } = \sqrt{25}[/tex]
h = 5
∴ height = 5 and base = 2(5) = 10
Given that f(x) = x^2 - 6x + 8 and g(x) = x – 2, find (f.g)(x) and express
the result in standard form.
Answer:
(F.g(x))=x^2-10x+24
Step-by-step explanation:
when when we have a composition function, like f of g of x, we put the second function g of x in place of every x in f of x,
so f(x)=x^2-6x+8
and we will put x-2 which is g(x) in the place of every x
so f(g(x))=(x-2)^2-6(x-2)+8
so we ca n simplify that into f(g(x))=x^2-4x+4-6x+12+8
which simplifies to f(g(x))=x^2-10x+24

the average length of string a and string d is 10x cm . the average length of string b and string c is 8x cm . the average length of string b , c, d is 6x cm . find the length of string a is terms of x
Answer:
a= 18x
Step-by-step explanation:
(a+d)/2 = 10x (1)
(b +c)/2 = 8x (2)
(b+c+d)/3 = 6x (3)
From the equation 2, we have (b+c)= 8x *2 = 16x
From the equation 3, we have d= 6x*3 - (b+c)= 18x- 16x = 2x
From the equation 1, we have a= 10x*2 -d= 20x - 2x= 18x

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
A survey was done to determine the relationship between gender and subject preference. A total of 56 students were surveyed to determine if they liked math, English, social studies, or science as their favorite subject. The results were then broken down based on whether the respondent was male or female.
Which of the following is the closest to the joint relative frequency of being a male who likes social studies ?
Solution :
A two way table used in statistics and mathematics is used to show the frequencies or the relative frequencies for any two categorical variables. One of the category is represented by the rows while the other categories by a column.
Here, in this table it is given that the total surveyed = 56 students
From the table, we know that number of males who likes social studies = 8
Therefore, the closest to the joint relative frequency for being a male who likes the subject social studies is given by :
[tex]$=\frac{8}{56}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{1}{7}$[/tex]

Determine the location and values of the absolute maximum and absolute minimum of given function: f(x)= ( -x+2)^4, Where 0<=x<=3
Answer:
The absolute maximum and the absolute minimum are (0, 16) and (2, 0).
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we obtain the first and second derivatives of the function by chain rule and derivative for a power function, that is:
First derivative
[tex]f'(x) = -4\cdot (-x+2)^{3}[/tex]
Second derivative
[tex]f''(x) = 12\cdot (-x + 2)^{2}[/tex]
Then, we proceed to do the First and Second Derivative Tests:
First Derivative Test
[tex]-4\cdot (-x+2)^{3} = 0[/tex]
[tex]-x + 2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
Second Derivative Test
[tex]f''(2) = 12\cdot (-2+2)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]f''(2) = 0[/tex]
The Second Derivative Test is unable to determine the nature of the critical values.
Then, we plot the function with the help of a graphing tool. The absolute maximum and the absolute minimum are (0, 16) and (2, 0).
