Answer:

  360 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed for the outbound trip was ...

  speed = distance/time = (715 mi)/(2 1/6 h) = 330 mi/h

The inbound speed was ...

  (715 mi)/(1 5/6 h) = 390 mi/h

The airspeed of the plane is the average of these two ground speeds, so is ...

  (330 +390)/2 = 360 . . . . mi/h

Reika [66]

Answer:

a) Observational study

b) No

c) No

-Eating habits

-Age

-Health hystory

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

An observational study is one where the investigator has no control or intervenes on it. He just defines the variable of interest and merely collects and documents the information. These types of studies are usually made as precursors to a more formal experimental study, to have an idea of what's to be expected from the population.

In this example, the researcher merely took the information of interest from the survey that was taken. The researcher did not intervene in any way in the experiment. Because of the lack of intervention from the researcher, it is not valid to use the conclusions of this experiment to generalize to all American adults. For instance, it is not sure that the sample is representative, all people responding to the survey may be healthy or have certain eating habits. This also shows that many confusing factors are not taken into account like:

-eating habits (from eating healthy to extreme cases like being vegetarian/vegan or eating only fast food)

-age, the age range is not defined, if the sample is taken from surveys answered by people in their early 20s it will be different in both eating habits and health information as if the interviewees are in their 30s or 40s

-before health issues, there can be other health conditions that may be affecting the interviewees.

I hope it helps!

7/11 = x/9<br> Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Alexeev081 [22]

The solution to the given fraction 7/11 = x/9 to the nearest tenth is 5.7

<h3>Fraction</h3>

7/11 = x/9

  • cross product

7 × 9 = 11 × x

63 = 11x

  • divide both sides by 11

x = 63/11

x = 5.72727272727272

Approximately,

x = 5.7

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

B. 24

Step-by-step explanation:

it takes 60 minutes for one and 40 for another. since you don't know the time. the denominator is going to be x. The equation to solve this problem will be x/60 + x/40 = 1. Since you're adding, you want to have the same denominator. ( i chose to do 120) this will change the problem to 2x/120 + 3x/120 = 1. which will simplify to 5x/120=1. Multiply each side by 120 to get 5x=120 and divide each side by 5 to get x=24.
