speed of the  plane in still air is 76 m/s and speed of the wind is 28 m/s .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , A plane traveled 1248 miles to Ft. Worth and back. The trip there was with the wind. It took 12  hours. The trip back was into the wind. The trip back took 24 hours. We need to find What is the speed of the  plane in still air? What is the speed of the wind? Let's find out :

<u>For Going trip :</u>

Let speed of plane be u , and wind be v so : Speed = ( Distance ) / ( time )

⇒ u+v = \frac{1248}{12}

⇒ u+v = 104   ...........(1)

<u>For Returning Trip :</u>

⇒ u-v = \frac{1248}{24}

⇒ u-v = 52   ...........(2)

Adding both equations we get :

⇒ (u+v)+(u-v)=104+52

⇒ 2u=156

⇒ u= 76m/s

Putting this value in equation (1) we get :

⇒ 76+v = 104

⇒ v=28m/s

Therefore , speed of the  plane in still air is 76 m/s and speed of the wind is 28 m/s .

stira [4]

Solution :

It is given that four different prizes were awarded. So,

a). 4 ways for person 47 to win a prize

     99 ways to give out the 2nd prize

     98 ways to give the 3rd prize

      97 ways to give the last prize

     ∴  P(99,3) = 99 x 98 x 97

b). 1 way to give person 47 their prize

    1 way to give person 19 their prize

    98 ways to give out the 3rd prize

    97 ways to give out the last prize

    So, P(98,2) = 98 x 97

Estimate the sum for 1,537 times 242 then find the sum
Furkat [3]
It says to estimate first 1,537 turns to 2,000 because the 5 is 5 or more so the 1 becomes 2 and everything else is zeros. Now multiply 2000x 242=484,000 is the Estimation. Now find the correct product for 1,537x242=371,954
