Answer:
1 5/8 too short
Step-by-step explanation:
The cable on the truck is 18 and 3/8 ... to complete the fraction into a whole number we would need 5 more parts in order to complete the entire 8 parts of the fraction. This would make the cable a whole 19 feet. Since Ryan needs 20 ft, this would leave us needing 1 more foot. Therefore, the cable in the truck is
1 5/8 too short

Answer:
- plane: 530 mi/h
- wind: 40 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p and w represent the speeds of the plane and the wind. The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
speed = distance/time
p +w = (2565 mi)/(4.5 h) = 570 mi/h
p -w = (2205 mi)/(4.5 h) = 490 mi/h
Adding these speeds, we get ...
(p +w) +(p -w) = (570) +(490) mi/h
2p = 1060 mi/h
p = 530 mi/h
Then the speed of the wind is ...
w = 570 mi/h -p = (570 -530) mi/h = 40 mi/h
The plane's speed is 530 mi/h; the wind speed is 40 mi/h.
Commutative, because no matter how you group the equation you will still get to same answer
