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

\sqrt{160^2+30^2}= \sqrt{26500}=162.79 \;mph.

The approximate value of the actual velocity of the plane is 163 \;mph. Correct choice is (D).

I need help with this one <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%20" id="TexFormula1" title=" \frac{1}{3} "
Vanyuwa [196]
To solve this questions, we can turn 2 into a fractions.

2 as a fraction is 2/1 (because 2 divide by 1 is still 2)
We can now use this to get our answer. 

1/3  ÷ 2/1 
=  1/3 × 1/2    (flip the fraction and then multiply)
= 1/6          (1 x 1 / 3 x 6)

Or 0.16666.. as a decimal

Which of the following best describes how to measure the spread of the data? The IQR is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The standard deviation is a better measure of spread for movies than it is for basketball games. The IQR is the best measurement of spread for games and movies. The standard deviation is the best measurement of spread for games and movies.</span>
