The length of time that it takes for a ferry to reach a summer resort from the mainland is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 2 hours and a standard deviation of 12 minutes. Over many past trips, what proportion (area) of times has the ferry reaches the island in A) less than 1 hour, 45 minutes? B) more than 2 hours, 5 minutes? C) between 1 hour, 50 minutes and 2 hours, 20 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 0.10565

B) 0.33846

C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of time that it takes for a ferry to reach a summer resort from the mainland is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 2 hours and a standard deviation of 12 minutes.

Note that, all units must be in minutes

We solve this question using z score formula

= z = (x-μ)/σ

where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean = 2 hours

Converting to minutes

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hour = x

Cross Multiply

x = 2 × 60 minutes

x = 120 minutes

Mean = 120 minutes

σ is the population standard deviation = 12 minutes

Over many past trips, what proportion (area) of times has the ferry reaches the island in

A) less than 1 hour, 45 minutes?

Converting 1 hour 45 minutes to minutes

60 minutes = 1 hour

Hence:

60 + 45 minutes = 105 minutes

For x < 105 minutes

= 105 - 120/12

= -1.25

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<105) = 0.10565

B) more than 2 hours, 5 minutes?

Converting 2 hours 5 minutes to minutes

Hence:

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hour = x

Cross Multiply

x = 2 × 60 minutes

x = 120 minutes

Hence:

120 + 5 minutes = 125 minutes

For x < 125 minutes

z = 125 - 120/12

z = 0.41667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<125) = 0.66154

P(x>125) = 1 - P(x<125) = 0.33846

C) between 1 hour, 50 minutes and 2 hours, 20 minutes?

Converting 1 hour, 50 minutes to minutes

= 60 minutes = 1 hour

Hence:

60 + 50 minutes = 110 minutes

For x = 110 minutes

= 110 - 120/12

= -0.83333

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 110) = 0.20233

Converting 2 hours, 20 minutes to minutes

= 1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hour = x

Cross Multiply

x = 2 × 60 minutes

x = 120 minutes

Hence:

120 + 20 minutes = 140 minutes

For x = 140minutes

z = 140 - 120/12

= 1.66667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 140) = 0.95221

In a grid of an auditorium, the vertices of a section of seats are A(40, 20) , B(80, 20) , C(100, 70) , and D(40, 70) . The coordinates are measured in feet. Find the area of the section.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = 2900[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A (x_1,y_1) = (40,20)[/tex]

[tex]B (x_2,y_2) = (80,20)[/tex]

[tex]C (x_3,y_3) = (100,70)[/tex]

[tex]D (x_4,y_4) = (40,70)[/tex]

Required

Determine the Area

The area of the section is:

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}|(x_1y_2 + x_2y_3 + x_3y_4 + x_4y_1) - (y_1x_2 + y_2x_3 + y_3x_4 + y_4x_1)|[/tex]

Substitute values for the x's and y's

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}|(40 * 20 + 80*70 + 100*70 + 40*40) - (20*80 + 20*100 + 70*40 + 70*40)|[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}|15000 - 9200|[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2}|5800|[/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{1}{2} * 5800[/tex]

[tex]Area = 2900[/tex]

Hence, the area of the section is 2900ft^2

Answers

Answer:

y = 2,500x + 5,000

Rate of change = $2500 a year

Initial value = $5000

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 values to figure what is the function here, the rate of change, and the initial value.

To find the initial value, find where y is located where x is 0. In this case it's $5000, so that's the initial value.

Now the rate of change. Find y where x is 1. That is $7,500. Subtract $5000 from to get the rate of change, since it's the same. It's constant because of a straight diagonal line.

$7,500 - $5,000 = +$2,500/year

Now the equation. This is not proportional, because y's starting point is not 0. It's greater than that, so an addition sign is in the equation. Do you remember our initial value? That's right! It was $5,000, so put that after the addition sign.

y = ????x + 5,000

You also need to remember the rate of change, which was 2,500. Put that on the left of the addition sign and there's your equation!

y = 2,500x + 5,000

Answer:

y=2500x + 5000

Any point on the parabola can be labeled (x,y) as shown.

1. What are the distances from the point (x,y)(x,y) to the focus of the parabola and the directrix?
Select two answers.


distance to the focus: √(x+3)2+(y−3)2

distance to the directrix: |y−4|

distance to the directrix: |x−4|

distance to the focus: √(x−2)2+(y+3)2

distance to the focus: √(x+3)2+(y−2)2

distance to the directrix: |y+4|

2. What is the correct standard form of the equation of the parabola?

Answers

Answer:

Part A)

2nd and 5th choice.

Part B)

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{4}x^2-\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given parabola, our focus is (-3, 2), and our directrix is given by y = 4.

Part A)

We are given a point (x, y) on the parabola.

Since our directrix is an equation of y, the distance from (x, y) to the directrix will simply be the absolute value of the difference in y-values. So:

[tex]d_1=|y-4|=|4-y|[/tex]

Recall the distance formula:

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2[/tex]

Our distance from (x, y) to the focus (-3, 2) can be determined using the distance formula. Let (x, y) be (x₂, y₂) and let our focus (-3, 2) be (x₁, y₁). Therefore:

[tex]d_2=\sqrt{(x-(-3))^2+(y-2)^2}=\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2[/tex]

Hence, for Part A, our answers are the 2nd and 5th choices.

Part B)

Recall that by the definition of a parabola, any point (x, y) on it is equidistant to the directrix and focus. Hence:

[tex]\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2}=|y-4|[/tex]

Solve for y. Square both sides. We may remove the absolute value since anything squared is positive:

[tex](x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=(y-4)^2[/tex]

Square:

[tex]x^2+6x+9+y^2-4y+4=y^2-8y+16[/tex]

Rearrange:

[tex](x^2+6x+13)+(-16)=(y^2-y^2)+(-8y+4y)[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]x^2+6x-3=-4y[/tex]

Divide both sides by -4. Hence, our equation is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{1}{4}x^2-\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Heyo! :D

Distance to the directrix is |y - 4|.

Distance to the focus is [tex]\sqrt{(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2}[/tex].

Hope this helps! If so, please lmk! Tysm and good luck!

Answers

Answer:

80m - (12+4) = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! I mean its self explanatory

Answer:

$38.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add up the amount he spent before he started riding and we'll get $16. Subtract 16 from 80 which is 64. $64 dollars divided by $1.25 would be 51.2. We round down because he can't ride more then 50 rides. He would be able to ride 51 rides with the money he has. Let's say he rode 20 rides and then left the fair. We would subtract 20 from 51 and get 31. After that we would multiply 31 by 1.25 and get $38.75. So he would have $38.75 dollars after he left the fair.

This warm-up prompts students to carefully analyze and compare quadratic expressions. In making comparisons, students need to look for common structure and have a reason to use language precisely (MP7, MP6). The activity also enables the teacher to hear the terminology students know and how they talk about characteristics of the different forms of expressions.

As students discuss in groups, listen for rationales that are based on the structure of the expressions. Select those students or groups to share their thinking during class discussion.

Launch

Arrange students in groups of 2–4. Display the expressions for all to see. Give students 1 minute of quiet think time and then time to share their thinking with their small group. In their small groups, ask each student to share their reasoning about why a particular item does not belong, and together find at least one reason each item doesn't belong.

A holiday decoration involves blue and white lights.The ratio of blue lights to white lights is 3 to 2 . The box the decoration came in stated that the number of blue lights was 114 but didn't give the number of white lights or the total number of lights.

Answers

Answer:

a. 76 b. 190

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Number of white lights

Since the ratio of blue lights to white lights is 3 to 2 and the number of blue lights is 114, it follows that 3 : 2 = 114 : x where x is the number of white lights.

So, 3/2 = 114/x

cross-multiplying,

3x = 114 × 2

3x = 228

x = 228/3

x = 76

b. Total number of lights

So, the total number of lights is thus number of blue lights + number of white lights = 114 + 76 = 190

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

A mathematical equation is a statement with two equal sides and an equal sign in between. An equation is, for instance, 4 + 6 = 10. Both 4 + 6 and 10 can be seen on the left and right sides of the equal sign, respectively.

For age 'a', the special number was

 2a +4

Tammi's mother actually calculated it as;

 2(a +4) = 2a +8

Now a value that is (2a+8) -(2a+4) = 4 more than it was supposed to be.

The special number was supposed to be;

80 -4 = 76.

A box of chocolates contains five milk chocolates, five dark chocolates, and five white chocolates. You randomly select and eat three chocolates. The first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate. Is it independent or dependen?

Answers

The first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate independent and the probability is 25/546.

What is probability ?

Probability of something is the occurrence of a certain event out of the total events that can occur.

According to the given question

The total no. of chocolates in the box is

(5 + 5+ 5) = 15 chocolates.

The probability of eating a milk chocolate first a dark chocolate second and a white chocolate third is an independent event because occurrence of next event do not depend upon the previous event.

There are 5 milk chocolates.

So, probability of getting a milk chocolate first is

P(mc) = 5/15

= 1/3

Now the the chocolate can no be replaced because it is eaten

Probability of getting a dark chocolate second is

P(dc) = 5/14                          (as the total no. of chocolate is reduced by 1

                                                                    because it has been eaten)  

And the probability of getting a white chocolate in 3rd attempt is

P(wc) = 5/13

As the first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate is an independent event their probability is

P(mc) ∩ P(dc) ∩ P(wc)

= P(mc) × P(dc) × P(wc)

= (1/3 × 5/14 × 5/13)

= 25/546.
