A private jet flies the same distance in 8 hours that a commercial jet flies in 7 hours. If the speed of the commercial jet was
mamaluj [8]

Solving a system of equations, we can see that:

  • Speed of the private jet: 168 mi/h
  • Speed of the commercial jet: 192mi/h

<h3>How to find the speeds of each jet?</h3>

Let's define the variables:

  • P = speed of the private jet.
  • C = speed of the commercial jet.

With the given information, we can write:

P*8h = D

C*7h = D

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

So we have a system of 3 equations, where D is the distance in the problem.

With the first and second equations we can write:

P*8h = D = C*7h

Isolating P, we get:

P = C*(7/8)

Now we can replace that in the last equation:

C = 2*P - 144mi/h

C = 2*C*(7/8) - 144mi/h

And now we can solve that for C.

C - 2*(7/8)*C = - 144mi/h

C*(1 - 14/8) = -144mi/h

C*(8/8 - 14/8) = - 144mi/h

C*(6/8) = 144mi/h

C = (8/6)*144mi/h = 192mi/h

Now that we know the speed of the commercial jet, we can find the speed of the private jet.

P = C*(7/8) = 192mi/h*(7/8) = 168 mi/h

Use the frequency table to find the mean number of working TV sets in students' homes. (picture attached)
LenaWriter [7]

The correct option is :  2

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

For finding the mean number of working TV sets, we need to <u>divide the total number of TV sets by the total frequency</u>.

Now for finding the total number of TV sets, first we will <u>multiply each number of TV sets by it's frequency and then sum up all the results</u>.

So, the total number of TV sets

=(0*1)+(1*8)+(2*9)+(3*4)+(4*3) \\\\  =0+8+18+12+12=50

and total frequency =1+8+9+4+3= 25

Thus, the mean number of working TV sets = \frac{50}{25}=2
