Karen flies her Cessna Skyhawk aircraft 360 miles with a tailwind of 10 miles per hour in the same time it could fly 300 miles with a headwind of 10 miles per hour. Find the speed of the aircraft.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The speed of the aircraft is 126.667 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that aircraft travels at constant speed. From Mechanical Physics, we understand speed as travelled distance divided by time. In this case, the absolute speed of the aircraft is the sum of wind speed and speed of the aircraft relative to wind. That is:

Tailwind (Wind flows in the same direction of aircraft)

[tex]t = \frac{s_{T}}{v_{W,T}+v_{A/W,T}}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Headwind (Wind flow in the direction opposite to aircraft)

[tex]t = \frac{s_{H}}{v_{W,H}+v_{A/W,H}}[/tex] (Eq. 2)

Where:

[tex]s_{T}[/tex], [tex]s_{H}[/tex] - Travelled distances on tailwind and headwind conditions, measured in meters.

[tex]v_{W,T}[/tex], [tex]v_{W,H}[/tex] - Tailwind and headwind speeds, measured in meters per second.

[tex]v_{A/W,T}[/tex], [tex]v_{A/W,H}[/tex] - Relative speeds of aircraft relative to tailwind and headwind, measured in meters per second.

We proceed to equalize both expressions to eliminate time:

[tex]\frac{s_{T}}{v_{W,T}+v_{A/W,T}} = \frac{s_{H}}{v_{W,H}+v_{A/W,H}}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

If we know that [tex]s_{T} = 360\,mi[/tex], [tex]s_{H} = 300\,mi[/tex], [tex]v_{W,T} = 10\,\frac{mi}{h}[/tex], [tex]v_{W,H} = -10\,\frac{mi}{h}[/tex] and [tex]v_{A/W,T} = v_{A/W,H}[/tex], then:

[tex]\frac{360}{v+10} = \frac{300}{v-10}[/tex]

The relative speed of the aircraft is now cleared:

[tex]360\cdot (v-10)=300\cdot (v+10)[/tex]

[tex]360\cdot v-3600 = 300\cdot v +3000[/tex]

[tex]60\cdot v = 7600[/tex]

[tex]v = 126.667\,\frac{mi}{h}[/tex]

The speed of the aircraft is 126.667 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. The mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 70 inches. To convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. What are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters?

Answers

Answer: mode = 165.10 cm, median = 182.88 cm, mean = 177.80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

mode = 65*2.54 = 165.10 cm

median = 72*2.54 = 182.88 cm

mean = 70*2.54 = 177.80 cm

The values in cm are:

Mode = 162.56 cm

Median = 182.88 cm

Mean = 177.8 cm

Given,

The mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 70 inches.

We need to convert the data into centimeters by multiplying each data value by 2.54 and find the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters.

How many cm in one inch?

There is 2.54 cm in one inch.

Example:

If we want to find cm in 4 inches.

We just multiply 4 with 2.54 cm.

2.54 cm = 1 inch

4 x 2.54 cm = 4 x 1 inch

10.16 cm = 4 inches

We have,

We know that,

1 inch = 2.54 cm

Mode = 65 inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

64 inches = 64 x 2.54 cm = 162.56 cm

Median = 72 inches

72 inches = 72 x 2.54 cm = 182.88 cm

Mean = 70 inches

70 inches = 70 x 2.54 cm = 177.8 cm

Thus the values in cm are:

Mode = 162.56 cm

Median = 182.88 cm

Mean = 177.8 cm

Answer:

1

The correct option is  b

2

The correct option is  h

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n  = 15

   The difference in population proportion is [tex]d = 6[/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the input temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{57.6 + 68.9 + \cdots +60.4  }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  = 62.57 [/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{65.1 + 74.4 + \cdots +67.3 }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2 = 55.97 [/tex]

Generally the difference of the sample mean of the input temperature and that of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= d  =  \= x_1  - \= x_2[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  62.57 -55.97[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  6.6[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{\sum(d_1 - \= d )^2}{n} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{([57.6- 65.1]- 6.6)^2+ ([68.9 - 74.4]- 6.6)^2 + \cdots +  ([60.4 -  67.3]- 6.6)^2 }{15} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  = 1.732 [/tex

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

     [tex]t  =  \frac{ d - \= d  }{ \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  \frac{ 6-6.6  }{ \frac{1.732}{\sqrt{15} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  1.3417[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

    [tex]df =  n -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  15 -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  14[/tex]

Generally the probability of t obtained from the t - distribution table at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df =  14[/tex] is  

      [tex]P(t >1.3417 )  =  0.10052569[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p-value  =  2 *  P(t >  1.3417)[/tex]

=>    [tex]p-value  =  2 *   0.10052569[/tex]

=>   [tex]p-value  =  0.201 [/tex]

From the values obtained we see that [tex]p-value  >  \alpha[/tex] hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to  reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

The cooling system changes the temperature of the water by 6 degrees.

Answer:

a. When you have two parallel lines cut by a transversal, angles 4 and 6 become same side interior angles, meaning they add to 180 degrees. Alex's mistake is that he thought angles 4 and 6 were corresponding angles, which are equal to each other (corresponding angles would be like angles 2 and 6. they are in the same place in relation to the transversal and the parallel lines. if you moved line l down, angle 2 would be on the same spot as angle 6, so they are corresponding angles).

b. angles 4 = 140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Alex thought that angles 6 and 4 were corresponding angles, however, they are same side interior angles. Because two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, we can conclude that angles 4 and 6 are same side interior angles.

Same side interior angles are angles that add to 180, so you would do 180-40 to get angle 4. the measure of angle 4 would be 140 degrees (the answer to b).

The pilot of an airplane flying at an elevation of 5000 feet sights two towers that are 300 feet apart. If the angle of depression to the tower closer to him is 30, determine the angle of depression to the second tower.

Answers

Answer: 29.2 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Elevation of the pilot = 50,000 feet

Elevation of the two towers = 300 feet apart.

Depression of closer tower = 30

Solution:

The angle of depression to the second tower is x

tanx = 5000/(5000*√(3)+300)

x=29.2

Therefore the angle of depression of the second tower is at 29.2 degree

Answer:

29.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

From diagram (b)

Tan θ= opp/adj

Where θ = 30°

opp = 5000ft

adj = ?

tan 30° = 5000/x

x tan30° = 5000

x = 5000/tan 30

x = 5000/0.577

x = 8665.5ft

From diagram c

tan θ = opp/adj

Where θ = ?

opp = 5000

adj = 300+x

x= 8665.5

tan θ = 5000/300+8665.5

tan θ = 5000/8965.5

tan θ = 0.55769

θ = arch tan 0.55769

θ = 29.147

θ= 29.2°

Answers

This is about absolute value inequalities.

The set of possible values of x that make the statement true are; x = {-2, -1, 0, 1}

Let the number in the question be x.

We are told that when it is multiplied by 3 and 1 added to it, it is between - 8 and 7. This means it is greater than -8 but less than 7.

Thus;

3x + 1 > -8  - - - (eq 1)

3x + 1 < 7  - - - (eq 2)

Let's find range of x from eq 1;

3x + 1 > -8

Subtract 1 from both sides to get;

3x > -9

x > -9/3

x > -3

Similarly, let's find the range of x from eq 2;

3x + 1 < 7

Subtract 1 from both sides to get;

3x < 7 - 1

3x < 6

x < 6/3

x < 2

Thus, we can write that;

-3 < x < 2

Thus, the set of possible values of x are; x = {-2, -1, 0, 1}
