A plane traveled 2565 miles with the wind in 4.5 hours and 2205 miles against the wind in the same amount of time. Find the spee

kherson [118]

Answer:

plane: 530 mi/h
wind: 40 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p and w represent the speeds of the plane and the wind. The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

speed = distance/time

p +w = (2565 mi)/(4.5 h) = 570 mi/h

p -w = (2205 mi)/(4.5 h) = 490 mi/h

Adding these speeds, we get ...

(p +w) +(p -w) = (570) +(490) mi/h

2p = 1060 mi/h

p = 530 mi/h

Then the speed of the wind is ...

w = 570 mi/h -p = (570 -530) mi/h = 40 mi/h

The plane's speed is 530 mi/h; the wind speed is 40 mi/h.

If you wish to calculate the interest on an investment with a rate of 6.17%, what number will you plug into your equation? a. 0.

sdas [7]

I think it’s answer B. Because % to decimal is 6.14% divided by 100 so the decimal would move to the left two places which in 0.0614

I now completely sure but I think that’s right

horsena [70]

Answer:

$P(A) = \frac{1}{9}$

$P(B) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(C) = \frac{1}{729}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

Only employees are hired during the first 3 days of the week with equal probability.

2 employees are selected at random.

So:

A. The probability that an employee has been hired on a Monday is:

$P(M) = \frac{1}{3}$ .

If we call P(A) the probability that 2 employees have been hired on a Monday, then:

$P(A) =P(M\ and\ M)\\\\P(A)=( \frac{1}{3})(\frac{1}{3})\\\\P(A) = \frac{1}{9}$

B. We now look for the probability that two selected employees have been hired on the same day of the week.

The probability that both are hired on a Monday, for example, we know is $P(A) = \frac{1}{9}$ . We also know that the probability of being hired on a Monday is equal to the probability of being hired on a Tuesday or on a Wednesday. But if both were hired on the same day, then it could be a Monday, a Tuesday or a Wednesday.

$P(B) = \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{9}\\\\P(B) = \frac{1}{3}$ .

C. If the probability that two people have been hired on a specific day of the week is $3(\frac{1}{3}) ^ 2$ , then the probability that 7 people have been hired on the same day is:
