Answer:

The speed rate of the plane in still air is 1006.67 km/h

The speed rate of the wind is 246.67 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question, we let the speed of the plane in still air = x  km/h

Let the speed of the wind = y km/h

Therefore,

4560/(x - y) = 6 hours and

3720/(x + y) = 3 hours

4560 = 6·x - 6·y.........(1)

3720 = 3·x + 3·y ........(2)

Multiplying equation (2) by 2 and add to (1) gives

12080 = 12·x

x = 12080/12 = 1006\frac{2}{3} km/h

Substituting the value of x in (1) gives

4560 = 6040 - 6·y

6·y = 1480

y = 1480/6 =  246\frac{2}{3}

The speed rate of the plane in still air = 1006.67 km/h

The speed rate of the wind = 246.67 km/h.

Use the drop-down menus to complete each equation so the statement about its solution is true. I’ll give brainliest :))
melisa1 [442]

Step-by-step explanation:

5 - 4 + 7x + 1 = 7x + 2.

If there are no solutions, then it is of the form 7x + c, where c is any real number besides 2.

If there is 1 solution, then it is of the form mx + c, where m is any real number besides 7 and c is any real number.

If there are infinitely many solutions, then it is of the form 7x + 2.

Two students taking a multiple choice exam with 20 questions and four choices for each question have the same incorrect answer o
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The Possible model is binomial distribution model.

Step-by-step explanation:

The argument that both students cheated in the exam can be proved by a hypothesis that both the students got the same answers incorrectly.

The same incorrect answers prove that both students have cheated on the test.

Therefore the sample of incorrect answers is, n = 8

Thus, the success probability, P = 0.25

Since the given condition has only two outcomes that are choosing the same answer or not choosing the same answer. Thus, this can be solved by the binomial distribution model.

So, binomial distribution with n = 8 and p = 0 .25.
