The speed is 74.0 miles per hour and the angle is 65.1° north-east

Step-by-step explanation:

We resolve the distance moved by the wind and plane into horizontal and vertical components. The direction moved horizontally by the plane is 178sin7.1 = 22 miles.

Since the wind is moving south east, it is at 45 south of east or a bearing of 135.

Since the wind speed is 30 mph and it takes 2 hours to complete the trip, the horizontal distance moved by the wind is vtcos135 = 30 × 2cos45 = 42.43 miles

Also, the vertical displacement moved by the wind is vtsin135 = -30 × 2 sin45 = -42.43 miles

The displacement moved vertically by the plane is 178cos7.1 = 176.64 miles

The total horizontal displacement of the plane is 22 miles + 42.43 miles = 62.43 miles

The total vertical displacement of the plane is 176.64 miles - 42.43 miles = 134.21 miles

The resultant displacement is thus d = √(62.43² + 134.21²) = 148.02 miles

The direction of this displacement is thus

Ф = tan⁻¹(total vertical displacement/total horizontal displacement)

= tan⁻¹(134.21/62.43)

= tan⁻¹(2.1498)

= 65.05°

= 65.1° to the nearest tenth degree.

The speed is thus v = distance/ time = 148.02 miles/ 2 hours = 74.01 mph ≅ 74 mph. Since the direction of the displacement is the direction of the velocity, the velocity is thus 74 miles per hour at 65.1° north-east.

So the speed is 74.0 miles per hour and the angle is 65.1° north-east

x= -3 and $x=\frac{-3+/-3i\sqrt{3} }{2}$

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

$(x^3-a^3)=$ $(x-a)(x^2+ax+a^2)$

where a is the cube root of $a^3$ .

here this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

$(x-3)(x^2+(3)x+3^2)\\(x-3)(x^2+3x+9)$ .

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

$x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

$x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{3^2-4(1)(9)} }{2(1)} \\x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{9-36)} }{2} \\x=\frac{-3+/-\sqrt{-27)} }{2}\\x=\frac{-3+/-3i\sqrt{3} }{2}$

this cubic has two complex roots.
