Suppose that a category of world-class runners are known to run a marathon in an average of 147 minutes with a standard deviation of 12 minutes. Consider 49 of the races. Find the probability that the runner will average between 146 and 150 minutes in these 49 marathons. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
Answer:
0.6524 = 65.24% probability that the runner will average between 146 and 150 minutes in these 49 marathons.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Average of 147 minutes with a standard deviation of 12 minutes.
This means that [tex]\mu = 147, \sigma = 12[/tex]
Consider 49 of the races.
This means that [tex]n = 49, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{49}} = \frac{12}{7} = 1.7143[/tex]
Find the probability that the runner will average between 146 and 150 minutes in these 49 marathons.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 150 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 146. So
X = 150
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 147}{1.7143}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.75[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9599
X = 146
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{146 - 147}{1.7143}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.583[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.583[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3075.
0.9599 - 0.3075 = 0.6524.
0.6524 = 65.24% probability that the runner will average between 146 and 150 minutes in these 49 marathons.

The differential equation of a certain system is 20y′′+cy′+80y=0
, where c is called damping constant for what value of c critical damping hapens
Options:
110
64
50
60
Answer:
c=80
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on my reading the critical damping occurs when the discriminant of the quadratic characteristic equation is 0.
So let's see that characteristic equation:
20r^2+cr+80=0
The discriminant can be found by calculating b^2-4aC of ar^2+br+C=0.
a=20
b=c
C=80
c^2-4(20)(80)
We want this to be 0.
c^2-4(20)(80)=0
Simplify:
c^2-6400=0
Add 6400 on both sides:
c^2=6400
Take square root of both sides:
c=80 or c=-80
Based on further reading damping equations in form
ay′′+by′+Cy=0
should have positive coefficients with b also having the possibility of being zero.
Armando's carpet has an area of 220 square feet. He hires the Carpet Pro carpet cleaning service, which is able to clean 9 square feet of his carpet every minute. Therefore, in the first minute, CarpetPro is able to clean 9 square feet of Armando's carpet (leaving 211 square feet remaining to be cleaned). In the second minute, the cleaner is again able to clean 9 square feet of carpet (leaving 202 square feet to be cleaned), etc. Which of the following functions expresses the number of square feet that still remain to be cleaned after t minutes from the time that the carpet cleaner began cleaning this carpet.
a. A(t) = 220 - 9
b. A(t) = 220 - 0.1
c. A(t) = 220(0.1)
d. A(t) = 220(0.96)
e. A(t) 220 - 0.96
Answer:
The answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer needs to be in slope-intercept form or y=mx+b because the amount of carpet being cleaned every minute is a constant decrease of 9 square feet.
So our b value (or how much carpet cleaned at 0 minutes) is 220
And our m value (or slope or how much carpet is being cleaned every minute) is 9
So if we plug the variables with the tangible numbers we get A(t) = -9x+220 or A(t) = 220-9x.

Suppose the variable x is represented by a standard normal distribution. What is the probability of x > 0.3 ? Please specify your answer in decimal terms and round your answer to the nearest hundredth (e.g., enter 12 percent as 0.12).
Answer: 0.38
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the variable x is represented by a standard normal distribution, the probability of x > 0.3 will be calculated thus:
P(x > 0.3)
Then, we will use a standard normal table
P(z > 0.3)
= 1 - p(z < 0.3)
= 1 - 0.62
= 0.38
Therefore, p(x > 0.3) = 0.38
The probability of x > 0.3 is 0.38.

The table of values represents a linear function g(x), where x is the number of days that have passed and g(x) is the balance in the bank account:
Part A: Find and interpret the slope of the function. (3 points)
Part B: Write the equation of the line in point-slope, slope-intercept, and standard forms. (3 points)
Part C: Write the equation of the line using function notation. (2 points)
Part D: What is the balance in the bank account after 5 days? (2 points)
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
The slope is found by
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( 1200-1500)/(4-0)
= -300/4
=-75
Part B
point slope y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line
y-1200 = -75(x-4)
slope intercept y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -75x + 1500
standard form Ax+By =C
75x + y = 1500
Part C
Change y to g(x) in the slope intercept form
g(x) = -75x + 1500
Part D
Let x = 5
g(5) = -75(5) + 1500
=-375+1500
=1125

9. The theater club of a local high school is planning a production. The amount of time t needed to assemble the set is inversely
proportional to the number people n working. Twelve people can assemble the set in 5 hours.
Write an equation to represent the situation.
Answer:
The situation that represents this situation is:
[tex]t = \frac{60}{n}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of time t needed to assemble the set is inversely proportional to the number people n working.
This means that:
[tex]t = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]
In which k is the constant of proportionality.
Twelve people can assemble the set in 5 hours.
This means that for [tex]n = 12, t = 5[/tex]. We use this to find k.
[tex]t = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]
[tex]5 = \frac{k}{12}[/tex]
[tex]k = 12*5 = 60[/tex]
Write an equation to represent the situation.
[tex]t = \frac{60}{n}[/tex]

A bag contains 8 red balls and 3 white balls. Two balls are drawn without replacement. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.) (a) What is the probability that the second ball is white, given that the first ball is red
Answer:
12/55
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcomes to the number of total outcomes.
Given that the bag contains 8 red balls and 3 white balls, the probability of picking a red ball
p(r) = 8/(8+3) = 8/11
Probability of picking a white ball
= 3/11
when a red ball is picked first, the total number of balls reduces to 10 hence the probability that the second ball is white, given that the first ball is red
=8/11 * 3/10
= 24/110
= 12/55
