The resultant velocity of the plane is the sum of the two velocity vectors which are perpendicular to each other. See the attached figure.
The magnitude of the resultant velocity is
.
The approximate value of the actual velocity of the plane is 
. Correct choice is (D).
Answer:
.17 better average
Step-by-step explanation:
.323 - .306 = .17
Answer:
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = Number of gold coins in a chest
1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain
1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally
3 = Number of gold coins left
2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?
Let's write the following equation to solve for x:
1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x
2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)
4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)
x = 12
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Answer:
f(5) = 136.71875
Step-by-step explanation:
f(5) if f(1)=3.5 and f(x+1)=5\2 f(x)
f(2) = (5/2)* f(1) = (5/2)* 3.5 = 8.75
f(3) = (5/3)*f(2) =(5/2) * 8.75
f(4) = (5/3)*f(3) =(5/2)*(5/2) * 8.75
f(5) = (5/3)*f(4) = (5/3)*(5/2)*(5/2) * 8.75
f(5) = (5/2)^4 * 3.5 = (625/16) * 3.5 = 136.71875
f(5) = 136.71875
Yes, because the sample is random. If she had chosen the participants in any way other than randomly, it would not be representative of her entire school.
