The speed of the plane will be equal to 240 Mph.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance travelled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.

Given that:-

  • Mattie Evans drove 350 miles in the same amount of time that it took a turbo propeller plane to travel 1200 miles.
  • The speed of the plane was 170 mph faster than the speed of the car.

The speed of the plane will be calculated as:-

Let the speed of the car will be x mph so the speed of the plane will be

(x + 170)

Now time for the plane:-

Tp = Dp / Sp

Tp = 1200 / (x+170)

Now time for the car:-

Tc = Dc / Sc

Tc = 350 / x

It is given that time taken by both the plane and the car are equal:-

Tp  =  Tc

1200 / x+170 = 350 / x

1200x = 350x +  59500

850x  = 59500

x  =  59500 / 850

x  =  70mph

The speed of the plane will be calculated By:-

Sp = x + 170 = 70 + 170 = 240 Mph

Therefore the speed of the plane will be equal to 240 Mph.

Suppose that scores on the mathematics part of a test for eighth-grade students follow a Normal distribution with standard devia
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

We need an SRS of scores of at least 153.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How large an SRS of scores must you choose?

This is at least n, in which n is found when M = 20, \sigma = 150. So

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

20 = 1.645*\frac{150}{\sqrt{n}}

20\sqrt{n} = 1.645*150

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645*150}{20}

\sqrt{n} = 12.3375

(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (12.3375)^{2}

n = 152.2

Rounding to the next whole number, 153

We need an SRS of scores of at least 153.
