A jet flies from New York to Los Angeles , a distance of 2,450 miles, and then flies back. The speed from NY to LA was 140 mph faster than the speed from LA to NYIf the total time in the air was 12 hours, what was the jet's speed from NY to LA?

Speed from NY to LA is 172 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the jet’s speed from NY to LA be x mph.The speed form NY to LA would be (x-140) mph

Mathematically, we know that distance = speed * time

The total speed will x + x -140 = 2x-140

Now;

12(2x-140) = 2450

24x - 1680 = 2450

24x = 2450 + 1680

24x = 4130

x = 4130/24

x = 172.1 which is approximately 172 mph

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6
