The speed of the plane after it encounters the wind is C.285mph

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the plane when it encounters the wind?</h3>

Since the plane takes off from an airport on a bearing of 270° and travels at a speed of 320 mph it's velocity is v = (320cos270°)i + (320sin270°)j

= (320 × 0)i + (320 × -1)j

= 0i - 320j

= - 320j mph

Also, the plane encounters a 35 mph wind blowing directly north. The velocity of the wind is v' = 35j mph

So, the velocity of the plane after it encounters the wind is the resultant velocity, V = v + v'

= -320j mph + 35j mph

= -285j mph

So, the speed of the plane after it encounters the wind is the magnitude of V = |-285j| mph

= 285 mph

So, the speed of the plane after it encounters the wind is C.285mph

Jenna just opened a checking account at the bank. Within the first month, she deposited three checks for $34.98, $51.02, and $51

algol [13]

-7.89, -5.23, -5.22, 34.98, 51.02, 51.22

Lets break it down:
(Rational numbers consist of whole, numbers, integers, and fractions)
Negatives come after 0, so the greater the number gets, the less value it has, opposite of positive numbers.
So since -7.89 is the greatest negative number, it will have the least value.

Hope this helps!

Devin's bank charges $1.75 for nonbank ATM withdrawals and $0.30 for each debit card transaction. Last month, Devin paid $8.25 i

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

10 times

Step-by-step explanation:

3 nonbank atm withdrawals costs 5.25 and the total is 8.25 meaning the remaining must add up to 3. And if you multiply .3 by 10 it gives you 3

Evaluate 2/3x for x = 3/4. Please show your work.<br> Thank you!!! :)

GenaCL600 [577]

X = 3/4
So substitute x for 3/4 in <span> 2/3x
(3/4) x (2/3)

Now solve
</span>(3/4) x (2/3) = 1/2 or 0.5

An article in The Engineer (Redesign for Suspect Wiring," June 1990) reported the results of an investigation into wiring errors

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval on the proportion of aircraft that have such wiring errors is (0.0005, 0.0095).

b) A sample of 408 is required.

c) A sample of 20465 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

Of 1600 randomly selected aircraft, eight were found to have wiring errors that could display incorrect information to the flight crew.

This means that $n = 1600, \pi = \frac{8}{1600} = 0.005$

99% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.01$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995$ , so $Z = 2.575$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.005 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.005*0.995}{1600}} = 0.0005$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.005 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.005*0.995}{1600}} = 0.0095$

The 99% confidence interval on the proportion of aircraft that have such wiring errors is (0.0005, 0.0095).

b. Suppose we use the information in this example to provide a preliminary estimate of p. How large a sample would be required to produce an estimate of p that we are 99% confident differs from the true value by at most 0.009?

The margin of error is of:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

A sample of n is required, and n is found for M = 0.009. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.009 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.005*0.995}{n}}$

$0.009\sqrt{n} = 2.575\sqrt{0.005*0.995}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575\sqrt{0.005*0.995}}{0.009}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.575\sqrt{0.005*0.995}}{0.009})^2$

$n = 407.3$

Rounding up:

A sample of 408 is required.

c. Suppose we did not have a preliminary estimate of p. How large a sample would be required if we wanted to be at least 99% confident that the sample proportion differs from the true proportion by at most 0.009 regardless of the true value of p?

Since we have no estimate, we use $\pi = 0.5$

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.009 = 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}$

$0.009\sqrt{n} = 2.575*0.5$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*0.5}{0.009}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.575*0.5}{0.009})^2$

$n = 20464.9$

Rounding up:

A sample of 20465 is required.
