<span>In assumption that there were two scientists who used
different measurement systems in their research. The problems that might arise
if they shared their data is obviously and primarily error. Errors are
recognized and one element in every measure, system and quantity. Error was
already even present in the measurement system alone a scientist used and it
will furthermore aggregate, when these two different scales are combined the
more error escalates in the process. There are two types: random and systematic
error. </span>
Explanation:
Let h is the height of the plane above ground. x is the horizontal distance between the ground and the airport. Let s(t) is the distance between the plane and the airport. So,
...........(1)
Given, h = 4, x = 40 and s(t) = -20 mph
Differentiate equation (1) wrt t


When x = 40, 



So, the speed of the airplane is 241.14 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Take the formula:
K=5/9(Fahrenheit-32)+273
Plug in Fahrenheit
K=5/9 (60-32)+273
From here it is simple math and you can plug it into your calculator getting 288.5555556 and round to 289
