A certain model of automobile has its gas mileage (in miles per gallon, or mpg) normally distributed, with a mean of 28 mpg and a standard deviation of 4 mpg. Find the probability that a car selected at random has the following gas mileages. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) less than 26 mpg (b) greater than 34 mpg (c) between 22 and 34 mpg

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are finding the probability, which is a percentage, of each of these intervals on our standard bell curve. In order to find this percentage, we need to find the z-score that provides this percentage. To find the z-score:

[tex]z=\frac{x_i-\bar{x}}{\sigma}[/tex] which is the number in question minus the mean, all divided by the standard deviation. We're first looking for the probability that the gas mileage on a certain model of car is less than 26 mpg.

To find this z-score:

[tex]z=\frac{26-28}{4}=-.5[/tex] Depending upon which table you look at for the z-score determines how you will find it. The z-score that measure from the value and to the left of it is what we need. This decimal is .3085375, or 30.8538%.

Onto b., which is for the percentage of cars that have gas mileage over 34 mpg. Find the z-score, and this time, we look to the right of the value for the percentage:

[tex]z=\frac{34-28}{4}=1.5[/tex] and to the right of 1.5 standard deviations we will find .0668072, or 6.68072%

Then finally c., which wants the probability that the gas mileage on one of these cars is greater than 22 but less than 34 mpg. To do this we have to find the z-scores of each and then do some subtracting. First the z-scores:

[tex]z=\frac{22-28}{4}=-1.5[/tex] The percentage of data that lies to the right of that z-score is .9331927

The z-score for the other value, 34, was already found as 1.5, having .0668072 of the data to the right of that z-score. We subtract the smaller from the larger to determine what's left in-between:

.9331972 - .0668072 = .86639, or as a percentage, 86.639% of the cars fall into this interval for gas mileage.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

The surface area of a three-dimensional figure is the two-dimensional distance around the figure.  The easiest way to find the surface area of a figure is to find the area of each of its facets, then add up the area to get the total surface area. The given pyramid is composed of four congruent triangles and a square. Find the area of one of the triangles, and then the area of the rectangle. Multiply the area of the triangle by four to account for the fact that there are four congruent triangles. Then add the area of the base to the result, the result attained is the surface area of the prism.

2. Find the area of the triangles

The formula to find the area of a triangle is the following:

[tex]A_t=\frac{b*h}{2}[/tex]

Where (b) represents the base and (h) represents the height of the triangle. Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for the answer.

[tex]A_t=\frac{b*h}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_t=\frac{9*7.5}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_t=\frac{67.5}{2}[/tex]

[tex]A_t=33.75[/tex]

3. Find the area of the rectangle

The formula to find the area of a rectangle is the following,

[tex]A_r=b*h[/tex]

Substitute the given values in and solve,

[tex]A_r=b*h[/tex]

[tex]A_r=9*9[/tex]

[tex]A_r=81[/tex]

4. Find the total surface area

Multiply the area of the triangle by four to account for the fact that there are four triangles. Then add its area to the area of the rectangle.

[tex]A_t+A_t+A_t+A_t+A_r=A[/tex]

[tex]4(A_t)+(A_r)=A[/tex]

[tex]4*33.75+81=A[/tex]

[tex]135+81=A[/tex]

A bag contains 3 red, 5 blue, and 4 white marbles. If a marble is drawn from the bag, not replaced, and another is drawn, what is the probability of selecting a white and then blue marble?

Answers

Answer:

5/33

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of selecting a white marble is 4/12 = 1/3(because we have 4 white marbles and 12 marbles in total )

The probability of selecting a blue marble is 5/11 (because we have 5 blue marbles and 11 marbles left(1 has been drawn already) )

Probability of selecting a white and then blue marble equals 1/3*5/11 = 5/33

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation.

Answers

Answer:

The relation is linear

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Yes, the relationship shown is linear. The equation of the line is y=-1.25x-13.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

This data is linear as y decreases at a constant rate. The equation of a line is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y intercept

To find m:

m=[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{(-2)-(-7)}{(-9)-(-5)}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{5}{-4}[/tex]

m=[tex]-\frac{5}{4}[/tex]=-1.25

To find b, you can use any of the given points:

(-9,-2)

(-2)=-1.25(-9)+b

-2=11.25+b

-2-11.25=b

b=-13.25

Therefore, using the calculated values for m and b:

y=mx+b

y=-1.25x-13.25

Answers

Answer:

Step by step proof shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove the equation, you need to apply the Logarithm quotient rule and the Logarithm power rule. Here's how the quotient rule looks like.

[tex]log_b(x/y) = log_b(x) - log_b(y)[/tex]

And here's how the power rule looks like

[tex]log_a(x)^n = nlog_a(x)[/tex]

First let's apply the quotient rule.

[tex]\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} = \frac{log_a(x+h)-log_a(x) }{h} = \frac{log_a(\frac{x+h}{x} )}{h}[/tex]

Now we can do some quick simplification, and apply the power rule.

[tex]\frac{1}{h} log_a(1 + \frac{h}{x} ) = log_a(1+\frac{h}{x} )^\frac{1}{h}[/tex]

Answers

It's divergent because 1/√(5 - x) is defined only for x < 5, which means the integral from 5 to infinity doesn't exist.

Find the measure of the missing angles.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

e = 61°, f = 119°, and d = 90°

We know that vertically opposite angles are equal.

So, e = 61° [Vertically opposite angles]

We know that linear pair of angles are supplementary (180°).

So, f + 61° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

=> f = 180° - 61°

=> f = 119°

and d + 90° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

=> d = 180° - 90°

=> d = 90°

Decompose -6x/(x+2)(x+8) into partial fractions.

Answers

The partial fraction expansion takes the form

-6x/((x + 2) (x + 8)) = a/(x + 2) + b/(x + 8)

Both factors in the denominator are linear, so the numerators in the corresponding partial fractions have degree 1 - 1 = 0 and are thus constants.

Combine the fractions on the right side into one with a common denominator, then set the numerators on both sides of the equation equal to each other:

-6x = a (x + 8) + b (x + 2)

Expand the right side and collect terms by powers of x :

-6x = (a + b) x + (8a + 2b)

It follows that

a + b = -6   and   8a + 2b = 0

==>   a = -2   and   b = 8

So we end up with

-6x/((x + 2) (x + 8)) = -2/(x + 2) + 8/(x + 8)
