Answer:

105 mph = rate of first plane

130 mph = rate of second plane

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r = rate of first plane

then r + 25 = rate of second plane

2r = distance of first plane

2(r + 25) = distance of second plane

2r + 2(r + 25) = 470

2r + 2r + 50 = 470

4r = 420

r = 105 mph

r + 25 = 130 mph

Here are the first four terms of a quadratic sequence.
Llana [10]

Answer:

a = 3, b = 1, c = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute n = 1, 2, 3 into the n th term

a + b + c = 1 → (1)

4a + 2b + c = 11 → (2)

9a + 3b + c = 27 → (3)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate c

Subtract (2) from (3) term by term to eliminate c

3a + b = 10 → (4)

5a + b = 16 → (5)

Subtract (4) from (5) term by term to eliminate b

2a = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 3

Substitute a = 3 into (4) and evaluate for b

3(3) + b = 10

9 + b = 10 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

b = 1

Substitute a = 3, b = 1 into (1) and evaluate for c

3 + 1 + c = 1

4 + c = 1 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

c = - 3

Then a = 3, b = 1 and c = - 3

To construct an interval estimate for the difference between the means of two populations when the standard deviations of the tw
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

C. (n₁ + n₂ - 2) degrees of freedom

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-test for difference between two mean when variance are equal is:

t=\dfrac{\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2}{s\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}

where ,

\bar{x}_1 = Mean of Sample 1

\bar{x}_2 = Mean of Sample 2

s = standard deviation

n_1 = size of Sample 1

n_2 = size of Sample 2

 and t is Student's t-test with (n₁ + n₂ - 2) degrees of freedom.
