Answer: = 240 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = speed of the plane.

t= time taken

As per given, we have

t=\dfrac{450}{x+30}\ \ \ ...(i)\\\\ t=\dfrac{350}{x-30}\ \ \ ...(ii)    [Time = distance / speed]

From (i) and (ii), we get

\dfrac{450}{x+30}=\dfrac{350}{x-30}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 450(x-30)=350(x+30)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 450x-13500=350x+10500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 450x-350x=10500+13500\\\\\Rightarrow\ 100x=24000\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=240

Hence, the speed of the plane = 240 mph.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Assessing the association between supplemental vitamin A exposure and mortality and morbidity for measles:

Regarding the relative risk, the correct statement is:

a. Exposure to vitamin A appears to protect against morbidity and mortality for measles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative risk for incidence of measles = 0.75

Relative risk for measles mortality = 0.5

Relative risk for mortality and morbidity for measles = 0.375 (0.75 * 0.5)

The combined relative risk is less than 50%

The association is weak because RR is less than 1.

Therefore, there is no association between supplemental vitamin A exposure and mortality and morbidity for measles.

I need this solved please.
Reil [10]

Answer:

slope = 10/1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is the vertical rise over the horizontal rise

if you select two points on the line -- I used (10, 0) and (20, 20) -- and subtract the y-values you will get the vertical rise (20 - 0 = 20); if you now subtract the x-values (20 - 10 = 10) you will get the horizontal rise

so, 20/10 or 10/1

if you go from point (10, 0) to (20, 20) then you go up by 10 and over to the right by 1

g100num [7]

Answer:

=5x^2+4x−5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

3x2−5x+1+2x2+9x−6

=3x2+−5x+1+2x2+9x+−6

Combine Like Terms:

=3x2+−5x+1+2x2+9x+−6

=(3x2+2x2)+(−5x+9x)+(1+−6)

=5x2+4x+−5
