Assume the average weight of an American adult male is 180 pounds with a standard deviation of 34 pounds. The distribution of weights follows a normal distribution. What is the probability that a man weighs somewhere between 120 and 155 pounds?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find a-score of both

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

for 120

z =( 120- 180)/34 = -1.765

For 155

z = (155-180)/34 = -0.735

The probability to look for using z-score table is;

P(-1.765<z<-0.735) = 0.19239

Step-by-step explanation:

So say the number of hours is x

a) 72 + 6x = 96

6x = 24

x = 4

b) 7am + 4 hours = 11am

x^2 = 8x - 15
.......................

Answers

Answer: x= 5

Step-by-step explanation: Lets solve by completing the square.

You first need to get -15 by itself.

x^2-8x=15   Now you need to complete the square my finding a perfect constant that will go with x^2-8x, then add it to the other side containing -15 to balance the equation out.

-8x/2= -4^2=16 This will be the perfect square.

x^2-8x+16 = -15 + 16

(x-4)^2 = 1 factor into a binomial, then use the square root on both sides.

√ x-4 ^ 2 = √ 1

x-4 = 1

A. 77 cm
B.
92 cm
C
49 cm
D
75 cm

Answers

Answer:A

Step-by-step explanation:

h=85 f=36

Since it is a right angled triangle we can apply Pythagoras principle to get g

g=√(h^2 - f^2)

g=√(85^2 - 36^2)

g=√(85x85 - 36x36)

g=√(7225 - 1296)

g=√(5929)

g=77

Collete mapped her vegetable garden on the graph below. Each unit represents 1 foot.

(-6, -1) and (-6,8)

Answers

Answer:

(-4,-1) and (-4,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

If Collete planted a row of lettuce, that means their coordinates must have the same vertical coordinate, or the same horizontal coordinate. Another important characteristic is that between those points, there must have 8 units of separation, because it's an 8-foot row.

Only the first choice offers these characteristic to properly represent the row of plants with 8 feet distance between the first and the last plant.

Therefore, the answer is (-4,-1) and (-4,7)

The lengths of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of 250 days and a standard deviation of 15 days.

a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer?








b. If we stipulate that a baby is premature if the length of the pregnancy is in the lowest 8% (8th percentile), find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.005% probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer

b) The pregnancy length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 229 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 250, \sigma = 15[/tex]

a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 308. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{308 - 250}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.87[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.87[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.99995

1 - 0.99995 - 0.00005

0.005% probability of a pregnancy lasting 308 days or longer

b. If we stipulate that a baby is premature if the length of the pregnancy is in the lowest 8% (8th percentile), find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.

The 8th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.08. So it is X when Z = -1.405.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.405 = \frac{X - 250}{15}[/tex]

[tex]X - 250 = -1.405*15[/tex]

[tex]X = -1.405*15 + 250[/tex]

[tex]X = 229[/tex]

The pregnancy length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature is 229 days.

On the first day of school, each student is given $0.50 to attend. On day two, each student earns $1.00. on day 3, $2.00, etc. How much do students earn on the 9th day

Answers

Answer:

255.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If each day the number is doubled, then all you must do is keep on doubling to the ninth day and then add it all together

day 1 each student is given $0.50
day 2- $1.00
day 3- $2.00
this means every day the amount each student is given doubles from the day before.
day 4- $4.00
day 5- $8.00
day 6- $16.00
day 7- $32.00
day 8- $64.00
day 9- $128.00
so on the 9th day the students would earn $128.00

day 9- $128.00

Prob-4 Pressurized air are being used in a manufacturing company in its daily operation. There are three compressors in service; two-screw type compressors, (S1 ,S2) and one-reciprocal type compressor,(R). Each compressor, at any given time, is either off (0), or on (1) . Assume that event A is denoted to reciprocal compressor (R) that is always off . Event B is denoted that at least one of the screw type of compressor is always on. Assume that all outcomes in event B are equally likely. If P(A∩B)=45% and P(A∪B)=93%. Compute the probability that all compressors are off

Answers

Answer:

The probability that all compressors are off = P(A ∩ B') = 0.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Event A is denoted to reciprocal compressor (R) that is always off.

Event B is denoted that at least one of the screw type of compressor is always on.

P(A) = Probability that the reciprocal compressor is off.

P(A') = Probability that the reciprocal compressor is on.

P(B) = Probability that at least one of the screw type of compressor is on.

P(B') = Probability that at least one of the screw type of compressor is off.

P(A ∩ B) = 45% = 0.45

P(A ∪ B) = 93% = 0.93

P(U) = P(A ∪ B) + P(A' ∩ B')

1 = 0.93 + P(A' ∩ B')

P(A' ∩ B') = 1 - 0.93 = 0.07

The probability that all compressors are off is given as P(A ∩ B')

P(A) = P(A n B') + P(A n B)

P(B) = P(A n B) + P(A' n B)

The question asks us to assume that all outcomes in event B are equally likely.

The possible outcomes in event B include

- The two compressors are on

- First compressor is on, second compressor is off

- Second compressor is on, first compressor is off

- both compressors are off

Since all the outcomes are equally likely, the probability that at least one of the two compressors is on = (3/4) = 0.75 = P(B)

P(B) = P(A n B) + P(A' n B)

0.75 = 0.45 + P(A' n B)

P(A' n B) = 0.75 - 0.45 = 0.30

P(A ∪ B) = P(A ∩ B') + P(A' ∩ B) + P(A ∩ B)

0.93 = P(A ∩ B') + 0.30 + 0.45

P(A ∩ B') = 0.93 - 0.30 - 0.45 = 0.18

Hope this Helps!!!

Diameter of a cylindrical water tank is 8 ft

Height of the water tank is 9 ft.

It is required to find the volume of the tank. The volume of a cylindrical shaped object is given by :

[tex]V=\pi r^2h[/tex]

r is radius of cylindrical tank, r = 4 ft

Plugging all the values in above formula,

When you cough,the radius of your trachea (windpipe) decreases,affecting the speed S of the air in the trachea. If r0 is the normal radius of the trachea, the relationship between the speed S of the air and the radius r of the trachea during a cough is given by a function of the form

S(r) = (r0 - r) ar^2

where a is positive constant. Find the radius r for which the speed of the air is greatest.

Answers

Answer: 2r(0)/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we are given one Important data or o or parameter in the question above and that is the function of the form which is given below(that is);

S(r) = (r0 - r) ar^2 -----------------------------(1).

We will now have to differentiate S(r) with respect to r, so, check below for the differentiation:

dS/dr = 2ar (r0 - r ) + ar^2 (-1 ) ---------;(2).

dS/dr = 2ar(r0) - 2ar^2 - ar^2.

dS/dr = - 3ar^2 + 2ar(r0) ------------------(3).

Note that dS/dr = 0.

Hence, - 3ar^2 + 2ar(r0) = 0.

Making ra the subject of the formula we have;

ra[ - 3r + 2r(0) ] = 0. -------------------------(4).

Hence, r = 0 and r = 2r(0) / 3.

If we take the second derivative of S(r) too, we will have;

d^2S/dr = -6ar + 2ar(0). -------------------(5).

+ 2ar(0) > 0 for r = 0; and r = 2r(0)/3 which is the greatest.

Answer:

[tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to take the derivative of S(r) and equal to zero to maximize the function. In this conditions we will find the radius r for which the speed of the air is greatest.

Let's take the derivative:

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r(r_{0}-r)+r^{2}(-1))[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r*r_{0}-2r^{2}-r^{2})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r*r_{0}-3r^{2})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=ar(2r_{0}-3r)[/tex]

Let's equal it to zero, to maximize S.

[tex]0=ar(2r_{0}-3r)[/tex]

We will have two solutions:

[tex]r = 0[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex]

Therefore the value of r for which the speed of the air is greatest is [tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex].
