Answer:

The rate of the plane is 862 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

An airplane travels 6903 kilometers against the wind in 9 hours.

Speed = distance / time

Speed of the airplane while travelling against the wind is

6903/9 = 767 miles per hour

The airplane travelled 8613 kilometers with the wind in the same amount of time. This means that the speed while travelling with the wind will be

8613/9 = 957 miles per hour

Let x = speed of the airplane

Let y = speed of the wind

While travelling against the wind,

x - y = 767 - - - - - -- 1

While travelling with the wind,

x + y = 957 - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1,

-y - y = 767 - 957

-2y = -190

y = -190/-2

y = 95 miles per hour

x = 957 - y

x = 957 - 95

x = 862 miles per hour

Answer:

50 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!  

To solve this question, we would first need to look at the data. In this data, there are people who chose their favorite sport, and the number of people who chose that response. In order to solve the problem, we would have to find the ratio of how many people choose baseball over the other sports.

By this, we can add the number of students together. 30+10+5+15=60. Out of those 60 students, only 5 people chose baseball.

Since the ratio of the people who chose baseball is 5/60 (meaning that it is a 5/60 % chance someone would pick this sport), we would need to find the amount of people assumed to pick baseball in 600 student survey.

We can make a relationship with these two numbers.

\frac{5}{60} =\frac{x}{600}, since the ratio of the students who chose baseball remain the same.

You can see that the ratio on the denominators just add a zero on the bottom, so the top should add 0 as well, to get 50 for x, what we needed.

You can also solve that relationship by cross multiplication.

5(600)=x(60

3000=60x

50=x

Regardless, the answer is 50 students who would choose baseball in a 600 persons survey.
