Answer:

<h2>The speed of the airplane is 475 miles/hour and the wind is 25 miles/hour.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the speed of the airplane is x miles/hour and the wind is w miles/hour.

With the wind, the speed will be (x + w) miles/hour  and against the wind, the speed will be (x - w) miles/hour.

As per the given question, 3.6(x + w) = 1800\\4(x - w) = 1800\\(x - w) = 450or, w = x - 450.

Now, 3.6(x + w) = 1800\\2x -450 = 500\\2x = 950\\x = 475.

Thus, w = 475 - 450 = 25.

What is the answer to 13 in precise detail?
lyudmila [28]

Well, I don't know.  Let's see . . . . .

First draw: One 'M' available out of 11 letters.   Probability of picking it = 1/11.
2nd draw:  Four 'I's available out of 10 letters.  Probability of picking one = 4/10.
3rd draw:  Four 'S's available out of 9 letters.   Probability of picking one = 4/9.
4th draw:  Three 'S's available out of 8 letters. Probability of picking one = 3/8.
5th draw:  Three 'I's available out of 7 letters.  Probability of picking one = 3/7.
6th draw:  Two 'S's available out of 6 letters.   Probability of picking one = 2/6.
7th draw:  One 'S' available out of 5 letters.     Probability of picking it = 1/5.
8th draw:  Two 'I's available out of 4 letters.     Probability of picking it = 2/4.
9th draw:  Two 'P's available out of 3 letters.   Probability of picking one = 2/3.
10th draw: One 'P' available out of 2 letters.   Probability of picking it = 1/2.
11th draw: One letter left.  It is an 'I'.  Probability of picking it = 1 .

Probability of all of those draws in order =

    (1/11) x (4/10) x (4/9) x (3/8) x (3/7) x (2/6) x (1/5) x (2/4) x (2/3) x (1/2) x (1) =

           1,152 / 39,916,800 =

                 1 / 34,650 =

                                     0.00002886 =

                                   <em>  0.002886 percent</em> (rounded)

Not a good bet.  (But better than the lottery.)

The sum of a number and 8 is 15
kodGreya [7K]
You mean, what is this number?

we can rephrase it like this: the sum of a number x and 8 is 15

which is:

x+8=15

we subtract 8 from both sides and we get
x=7

so the answer is 7.
