Two passengers leave the airport at Kansas City, Missouri. One flies to Los Angeles, California, in 3.4 hr and the other flies i

n the opposite direction to New York City in 2.4 hr. With prevailing westerly winds, the speed of the plane to New York City is 60 mph faster than the speed of the plane to Los Angeles. If the total distance traveled by both planes is 2464 mi, determine the average speed of each plane.

Answer:  x = 400 MPH    x+60 = 460 MPH

Step-by-step explanation:

(Distance = (Rate)(Time)

Let x = speed of the LA bound plane

Then, x+60 = speed of NYC bound plane

Sum of distances = 2464

3.4x + 2.4(x+60) = 2464

         5.8x + 144 = 2464

                  5.8x = 2320

                      x = 400 MPH    x+60 = 460 MPH

Answer:

-0.048

Do not reject  H_0:P_1-P_2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Sample size n_1=350

Sample size n_2=250

Sample proportion 1  \hat P= \frac{25}{350} =>0.07

Sample proportion 2 \hat P= \frac{19}{250} =>0.076

95% confidence interval

Generally for 95% confidence level

Level of significance

 \alpha = 1-0.95=>0.05

 \alpha /2=\frac{0.05}{2} =>0.025

Therefore

Z_a_/_2=1.96

Generally the equation for confidence interval between P_1 - P_2  is mathematically given as

(\hat P_1-\hat P_2)\pm Z_a_/_2\sqrt{\frac{\hat P_1(1-\hat P_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat P_2(1-\hat P_2)}{n_2}  }

(0.07-0.076)\pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.07(1-0.07)}{350}+\frac{0.076(1-0.076)}{250}  }

(0.07-0.076)\pm 1.96\sqrt{4.66896*10^-^4  }

(-0.006)\pm 0.042

(-0.006)- 0.042=>-0.048

(-0.006)+ 0.042=>0.036

Therefore

Confidence interval is

-0.048

Conclusion

Given the confidence interval has zero

Therefore do not reject  H_0:P_1-P_2=0

Find X <br><br> Simplify answer type exact number or use radicals as needed
satela [25.4K]
On a right triangle, to find one missing side you can use this equation
a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a and b are the sides next to the right angle, and c is the hypotenuse (side not connected to right angle).

You first need to find the length of the dotted line before finding x. This is because to be able to use the above formula, you have to know the length of two out of three of the sides.

To solve the length of the dotted line, note that it also makes a triangle with the 5 unit line and the 5 √5 unit line. You can plug these numbers into the formula.
(5)^2+b^2=(5 √5)^2
25+b^2=125
b^2=100
b=10

Now that you know the length of the dotted line is 10 units, you can now solve for x

(20)^2+(10)^2=x^2
400+100=x^2
500=x^2
x= √500, which equals 22.361

I have 6 thousands 12 tens 9 hundreds 10 ones and 3 tenths what number am i
mixer [17]

Here let us first write the value of each number:

6 thousands means 6*1000=6000.

9 hundreds means 9*100=900.

12 tens means 12*10 =120

10 ones means 10*1 =10

3 tenths means 3/10 =0.3

Now we just have to add all these values to get the final number.

adding 6000 + 900 +120 +10 +0.3 = 7030.3

So the final number is 7030.3
