Answer:

The two planes have traveled the <em>same distance.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Velocity of first plane traveling north = 100 km/h

Time taken by the plane = 2.5 hours

Velocity of second plane traveling north = 62.5 km/h

Time taken by the plane = 4 hours

To find:

Which plane traveled longer distance?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for finding the distance using velocity and time.

Formula is:

Distance = Velocity \times Time

Distance traveled by first plane:

Distance_1 = 100\times 2.5\\\Rightarrow Distance_1 = 250 \ km

Distance traveled by second plane:

Distance_2 = 62.5\times 4\\\Rightarrow Distance_2 = 250 \ km

Here, we can clearly see that:

Distance _1 = Distance _2

Therefore, the two planes have traveled the <em>same distance</em>.

M is between L and N. If LN = 91 and LM = 23, find MN.
Tasya [4]

Answer:

MN = 68

Step-by-step explanation:

LN = 91

LM = 23

Points L, M, and N are collinear, therefore, according to the segment addition postulate, the following can be deduced:

LM + MN = LN

23 + MN = 91 (Substitution)

Subtract 23 from both sides

23 + MN - 23 = 91 - 23

MN = 68

"if z is a standard normal variable, find the probability. the probability that z lies between 0 and 3.01"
spayn [35]
Probability between z = 0 and z = 3.01 is given by

P(0<z<3.01) = P(z<3.01) - P(z<0)

Reading from the z-table, we have
P(z<0) = 0.5
P(z<3.01) = 0.9987

Hence, P(0<z<3.01) = 0.9987 - 0.5 = 0.4987

Another quick geometry question! Thanks!
miss Akunina [59]
Cross multiply.
14/12=x/18
14 x 18 = 252
252/12= 21
so x=21

Nicholas wrote the steps below to simplify the fraction 20/30. Find his error and correct it.
igor_vitrenko [27]
He does not divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number. Nicholas divides 20 by 5 and 30 by 6. He ought to have divided 30 by 5 as well and then simplified.

P.S. Nicholas should have just divided both 20 and 30 by 10 to simplify in one step.
