Answer:
0.0409 = 4.09% probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches.
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.
The average height of a current NBA player is 79 inches with a standard deviation of 3.4 inches.
This means that [tex]\mu = 79, \sigma = 3.4[/tex]
A random sample of 35 current NBA players is taken.
This means that [tex]n = 35, s = \frac{3.4}{\sqrt{35}}[/tex]
What is the probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches?
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 80. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{80 - 79}{\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.74[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.74[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9591
1 - 0.9591 = 0.0409
0.0409 = 4.09% probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches.
A scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled Solution A and Solution B. Each contains salt. She knows that Solution A is 55% salt and Solution B is 70% salt. She wants to obtain 30 ounces of a mixture that is 60% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Answer:
Let x = the number of ounces of Solution A
Let y = the number of ounces of Solution B
x + y = 180 y = 180 - x
.60x + .85y = .75(180)
.60x + .85y = 135 Multiply both sides of the equation by 100 to remove the decimal points.
60x + 85y = 13500
60x + 85(180 - x) = 13500
60x + 15300 - 85x = 13500
-25x = -1800
x = 72ounces
y = 180 - 72
y = 108 ounces

Pauline mixed 0.32 liter of syrup with 12 times as much water to make orange squash.She split 1.28 liter of orange squash.Then she poured the remaining orange squash equally into 4 bottles.How much orange squash were there in each bottle.Give your answer in Liters.
Answer:
0.72 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
Litres of syrup = 0.32 litres
Litres of water = 12 times the amount of syrup = 12 * 0.32 = 3.84 litres
Litres of orange squash = litres of syrup + litres of water
Litres of orange squash = (0.32 + 3.84) = 4.16 litres
Amount of orange squash litres split = 1.28 litres
Amount of orange squash left = (4.16 - 1.28) = 2.88 litres
Splitting the amount of squash left equally into 4 :
2.88 litres / 4 = 0.72 litres

charges $100 sign-up fee and then $45 per month for their new hotspot. After how many

Get More Unlimited:

$55 for four lines
Answer:
4 months
As we show that ;
40 + (60x * 4) = 280
100 + (45x * 4) = 280
but in simultaneous equations Verizon must be set equal to 240 being 80 x 3
and T mobile must be equal to 45 x 4 = 180
so that 240+ 180 = 420 to find 4
This would be a method on distribution as "60 sign up is 1/3 more than 1st equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a simultaneous equation but trial and error is below to prove all is true.
step 1 make all equations same
40s + (60x) * 3 = 180x LCM = 80 x 3 = 1 1/3 of 60
100s + (45x) * 4 = 180x LCM = 45 x 4 = 1 of 45 as verizon charges 1/3 more sign up.
100s- 40s + 180x = (180x) = 240 + 180
60s + 180x = 420
s = 60
so our equations must each end with 420
when we get 60s + 180x = 420 then
420 - 180 = 240
240/60 = 4
x = 4 months
Verizon = 1st and T mobile = 2nd
40 + (60x * 5) = 340
100 + 45x * 5 = 325
with $15 out after 5 months so we try 6 months
40 + (60x * 6) = 400
100 + 45x * 6 = 370
and see this is increasing in difference, so try a smaller value of months..
We try 4 months;
40 + (60x * 4) = 280
100 + (45x * 4) = 280
Pls if anyone knows the answer that will be greatly appreciated :)

Answer:
48 - 3X
Step-by-step explanation:
( 52+2) - 3x - 6
54 - 3x - 6 So first we deal with the numbers in brackets and that is 52 + 2 giving us 54.
54 - 6 - 3x Then you simplify the expression that is collecting like terms so then we subtract 6 from 54
48 - 3x This is the final expression after simplifying

The length of a rectangle is (x+1) cm, and its width is 5 cm less than its length.
a) Express the area of the rectangle, A cm^2 , in terms of x.
b) The area of the rectangle is 24 cm^2. Calculate the length and width of the rectangle.
Answer:
a) x^2-3x-4(you also can express it as (x+1)(x-4))
b)The length is 8 cm, the width is 3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The length is x+1
The width is (x+1-5)= x-4
The area is the product of the length and the width
(x+1)(x-4)= x^2-3x-4
b) The formula for counting the area is x^2-3x-4
It is equal to 24
S0 x^2-3x-4=24
x^2-3x-28=0
a=1 b=-3 c=-28
D= b^2-4ac= 3^2-4*(-28)= 9+112= 121
sqrtD= 11
x1= (-b-sqrtD)/2a=(3-11)/2=-4 The length is -4+1=-3<0, but the length must be positive, this root isn't suitable.
x2= (-b+sqrtD)/2a=(3+11)/2=7 The length is 7+1=8 (it is suitable)

find the probability of being dealt 5 cards from a standard 52 card deck, and the cards are 6,7,8,9, and 10, all of the same suit. What is the probability of being dealt this hand is
Answer: 20/52 x 4/51 x 3/50 x 2/49 x 1/48 = .00000153908
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of being dealt 5 cards from a standard 52 card deck, and the cards are 6,7,8,9, and 10 of the same suit is 0.00000153908
What is Probability?
The probability that an event will occur is measured by the ratio of favorable examples to the total number of situations possible
The value of probability lies between 0 and 1
Given data ,
Let the number of cards in deck be = 52 cards
Total number of cards selected = 5
The number of ways of choosing 5 cards = ⁵²C₅
The cards selected are of the same suit
So , there are 4 ways to select them , Hearts , Clubs , Spades and Diamonds = ⁴C₁
And there is only one way to select the cards 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 = 1
Now , we use combination to select the cards in a deck,
So,
The probability of being dealt 5 cards from a standard 52 card deck, and the cards are 6,7,8,9, and 10, all of the same suit is calculated by,
P ( x ) = 1 / ⁵²C₅ x ⁴C₁ x 1
P ( x ) = 1 / 52! / ( 47! x 5! ) x 4! / 3! x 1
P ( x ) = 1 / ( 52 x 51 x 50 x 49 x 48 ) / ( 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 ) x 4
P ( x ) = 1 / ( 2598966 ) x 4
P ( x ) = 4 / 2598966
P ( x ) = 0.00000153908
Hence , The probability of being dealt 5 cards from a standard 52 card deck, and the cards are 6,7,8,9, and 10 of the same suit is 0.00000153908

Jim is designing a seesaw for a children's park. The seesaw should make an angle of 30° with the ground, and the maximum height to which it should rise is 2 meters, as shown below:
A seesaw is shown with one end on the ground and the other in the air. The seesaw makes an angle of 30 degrees with the ground. The height of the seesaw from the ground, at the other end, is labeled 2 meters.
What is the maximum length of the seesaw?
3 meters
3.5 meter
4 meters
4.5 meters
You are giving the angle and opposite leg.
Using the law of sines:
Sin(angle) = opposite leg / hypotenuse
Sin(30) = 2/ hypotenuse
Hypotenuse = 2/sin(30)
Hypotenuse = 4 meters
The maximum length of the seesaw is : (C). 4 meters
Meaning of Maximum lengthMaximum length can be defined as the total distance between two point in consideration.
Maximum length can also be said to be the total sum of all the length along a distance.
In the case above, the hypotenuse side is the maximum length.
