Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate Usual Speed

The usual speed of the plane can be calculated using the formula: Usual Speed=Usual DistanceTime=3952 km3 h=1317.3‾ km/h \text{Usual Speed} = \frac{\text{Usual Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \frac{3952 \text{ km}}{3 \text{ h}} = 1317.\overline{3} \text{ km/h}

Step 2: Calculate Distance in Cloudy Skies

The distance the plane can fly in cloudy skies is given by: Cloudy Distance=Usual Distance−Distance Reduction=3952 km−184 km=3768 km \text{Cloudy Distance} = \text{Usual Distance} - \text{Distance Reduction} = 3952 \text{ km} - 184 \text{ km} = 3768 \text{ km}

Step 3: Calculate Speed in Cloudy Skies

The speed of the plane in cloudy skies can be calculated as: Cloudy Speed=Cloudy DistanceTime=3768 km3 h=1256 km/h \text{Cloudy Speed} = \frac{\text{Cloudy Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \frac{3768 \text{ km}}{3 \text{ h}} = 1256 \text{ km/h}

Final Answer

1256 km/h\boxed{1256 \text{ km/h}}

For an experiment testing the pineapple gummy bear, our alternative hypothesis would state "There is a difference in a taster's ability to identify the flavor of the pineapple gummy bear based on taste and smell and taster alone". If our alternative hypothesis is supported what would we expect the results of our experiment to show The number of correct responses in the control group and the treatment group to be similar. The number of correct responses does not determine if the alternative hypothesis is supported or not. The number of correct responses in the control group to be greater than the number of correct responses in the treatment group.
