Question
Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 4200 km in 7 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 4000 km in 4 hours. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Let Va = the velocity of the airplane Let Vw = the velocity of the wind When flying with the wind: (Va+Vw)*(4 hours) = 4000 4Va + 4Vw = 4000 4Vw = 4000 - 4Va Vw = 1000 - Va When flying against the wind: (Va-Vw)*(7 hours) = 4200 km7Va - 7Vw = 4200 Substitute 1000-Va for Vw and solve for Va: 7Va - 7(1000-Va) = 4200 7Va -7000 + 7Va = 4200 14Va = 11200 Va = 800 km/hr Rate of wind: Vw = 1000 - Va = 1000 - 800 = 200 km/hour

Answer:
An airline estimates that 94% of people booked on their flights actually show up. If the airline books 77 people on the flight for which the maximum number is 75, what is the probability that the number of people who show up will exceed the capacity of the plane?
-------------------------
Binomial Problem with n = 77 and p = 0.94
---
P(76 <= x <= 77) = 1-P(0 <=x <= 75) = 1 - binomcdf(77,0.94,75) = 0.0504

Answer:
$3291.60
Step-by-step explanation:
If the loan is amortized in the usual way, the monthly payment is ...
A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t)) . . . . . loan of P at rate r for t years
A = $15,000(0.081/12)/(1 -(1 +0.081/12)^(-12·5)) ≈ $304.86
The total of payments is ...
(60 months) × ($304.86/month) = $18,291.60
Then the profit to the bank is ...
$18,291.60 -15,000 = $3,291.60 . . . bank profit
Equation would be: 25.15 - 1.75x
Where, x = number of days.
Substitute for x = 3,
= 25.15 - 1.75(3)
= 25.15 - 5.25
= 19.90
In short, Your Answer would be $19.90
Hope this helps!
