An airplane left Miami, FL. At the same time another plane left Santiago, Chile. The two planes flew toward each other at rates

of 625 mph and 575 mph. If Miami and Santiago are 4200 miles apart, how long will it take until the planes pass each other?

To solve the above question we use the concept of relative speed.
The rates of the two planes are 625 mph and 575 mph. 
Relative speed will be:
[speed of plane A]+[speed of plane B]
=625+575
=1,200 mph
Distance=4200 miles
Thus the time taken for them to meet will be:
Time=distance/speed
=4200/1200
=3.5 hours
We therefore conclude that the planes met after 3.5 hours

\mathbb P(286
\mathbb P(286

The empirical rule says that approximately 68% of any normal distributed data set lies within one standard deviation of the mean.

\mathbb P(-2
\implies\mathbb P(-2

The same rule states that about 95% lies within two standard deviations of the mean. Using this rule, and the fact that any normal distribution is symmetric about its mean, you have

\mathbb P(-2
0.95=2\mathbb P(-2
\implies\mathbb P(-2

\implies\mathbb P(-2

What are the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of the following true conditional? What are the truth values of each?
ser-zykov [4K]
<span>In logic, the converse of a conditional statement is the result of reversing its two parts. For example, the statement P → Q, has the converse of Q → P.

For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the converse is 'if a figure is a parallelogram, then it is rectangle.'
As can be seen, the converse statement is not true, hence the truth value of the converse statement is false.
</span>
The inverse of a conditional statement is the result of negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional statement. For example, the inverse of P <span>→ Q is ~P </span><span>→ ~Q.
</span><span><span>For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the inverse is 'if a figure is not a rectangle, then it is not a parallelogram.'
As can be seen, the inverse statement is not true, hence the truth value of the inverse statement is false.</span>
</span>
The contrapositive of a conditional statement is switching the hypothesis and conclusion of the conditional statement and negating both. For example, the contrapositive of <span>P → Q is ~Q → ~P. </span>
<span><span>For the given statement, 'If a figure is a rectangle, then it is a parallelogram.' the contrapositive is 'if a figure is not a parallelogram, then it is not a rectangle.'
As can be seen, the contrapositive statement is true, hence the truth value of the contrapositive statement is true.</span> </span>
