Answer 249014 by checkley77(12569) About Me  on 2010-09-26 16:43:23 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y-(1/x)=3/5 add 1/x to both sides.
y=3/5+1/x
OR:
(y-1)/x=3/5 cross multiply
5(y-1)=3x
5y-5=3x add 5 to both sides.
5y=3x+5 divide both sides by 5.
y=(3x+5)/5 ans.

D=RT
D=400T FOR THE FIRST PLANE TO LEAVE.
D=500(T-1) FOR THE SECOND PLANE.
BECAUSE THE DISTANCES ARE THE SAME WE SET THESE 2 EQUATION EQUAL.
400T=500(T-1)
400T=500T-500
400T-500T=-500
-100T=-500
T=-500/-100
T=5 HOURS AFTER THE FIRST PALNE LEAVES THEY WILL MEET.
5-1=4 HOURS THE SECOND PLANE WILL BE IN THE AIR BEFORE OVERTAKING THE FIRST PLANE.
PROOF:
400*5=500(5-1)
2,000=500*4

12*3*x=36x ft^3 is the volume to be filled.
36x=70*.13368
36x=9.3576
x=9.3576/36
x=.2599 ft. is the depth of the 70 gallons of water.
Proof:
12*3*.2599=70*.13368
9.3564=9.3576

3(81/16)^-3/4
The exponent (-3.4) changes the term (81/16) to the denominator with positive exponents.
3(1/[fourthrt(81/16)^3] cube the (81/16) term.
3/[fourthrt(532,441/4,096)]find the 4 th root of (532,441/4096)
3/[27/8]) invert the denominator (27/81) & multiply.
3*8/27=24/27=8/9 ans.
