An airplane left Miami, FL. At the same time another plane left Santiago, Chile. The two planes flew toward each other at rates

of 625 mph and 575 mph. If Miami and Santiago are 4200 miles apart, how long will it take until the planes pass each other?

Answer:

3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we use the concept of relative speed.

The rates of the 2 planes are 625 mph & 575 mph. 

Relative speed will be:

(speed of plane A)+(speed of plane B)

=625+575

=1,200 mph

Distance=4200 miles

Thus the time taken for them to meet will be:

Time=distance/speed

=4200/1200

=3.5 hours

We therefore conclude that the planes met after 3.5 hours.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Only B and C are always true.

Step-by-step explanation:

To analyse which statements are always true, we go through the process of finding confidence intervals for sample means, from the start.

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

From this expression, it is evident that the margin of error determines how wide the confidence interval would be.

Sample Mean = 110 (given)

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (Standard deviation of the distribution of sample means)

Since no information about the population standard deviation is provided, the critical value is obtained using t-distribution.

The critical value usually varies at different confidence levels and degree of freedoms.

The higher the confidence level, the higher the critical value and the higher the margin of error leading to a wider range.

Hence, a confidence interval of 95% will have a higher critical value than a confidence interval of 90%. Hence, statement C is proved once that 'for n = 100, the 95% confidence interval will be wider than the 90% confidence interval'.

After obtaining the critical value, we then obtain the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means or simply the standard error of the mean. This is given as

σₓ = σ/√n

where σ = standard deviation; which isn't given. The standard deviation might be high enough to guarantee that the Margin of error is high too for the confidence interval to contain 115 or low enough to ensure that the Margin of error is very small and the confidence interval will not contain 115.

Or the sample size might be high enough to make the standard error of the mean to be eventually small and lead to a small margin of error and the condidence interval will not contain 115.

The point is, it isn't always sure that the resulting interval.would contain 115. So, statement A isn't always true.

Then from σₓ = σ/√n,

n = sample size, a large sample size means a more narrow confidence interval and a small sample size means a wider sample size. This proves statement C.

The 95% confidence interval for n = 100 will be more narrow than the 95% confidence interval for n = 50.

Hence, Only B and C are always true.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find all the real zeros of <br><br> f(x)=3x^3-9x^2+3x-9 <br><br><br> Can someone help me please
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

x=0,3

Step-by-step explanation:

start by dividing every term by 3

x^3-3x^2+x-3

group into 2 terms

(x^3-3x^2)+(x-3)

simplify as much as you can

x^2(x-3)+(x-3)

combine terms

(x^2)(x-3)

x=3, 0
