The time I spend waiting for the bus on any given day has a distribution with mean 4 min- utes and variance off 0.5 minutes. What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)? You may assume that waiting times on different days are independent of each other. HINT: Is there a sum of random variables somewhere in here?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

n instances of a normal variable:

For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is:

[tex]M = n\mu[/tex]

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Mean of 4 minutes, standard deviation of 0.5 minutes:

This means that [tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5}[/tex]

30 days:

[tex]M = 30(4) = 120[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{0.5}\sqrt{30} = \sqrt{0.5*30} = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)?

2 hours and 10 minutes is 2*60 + 10 = 130 minutes, so this probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 130. So

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

In this context, due to the 30 instances of the normal variable:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{130 - 120}{\sqrt{15}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9951.

1 - 0.9951 = 0.0049

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

The line l with equation x - 2y + 2 = 0 crosses the y-axis at the point P. The line
m with equation 3x + y - 15 = 0 crosses the y-axis at the point Q and intersects
l at the point R. Find the area of triangle PQR.​

Answers

Answer:

Area of ΔPQR is 28 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

-P is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line x-2y+2 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point P( 0, b)

x-2y+2 = 0, subtract x and 2 from both sides

-2y = -x-2, divide by -2 both sides

y= (1/2)x +1 so b=1 and P (0, 1)

-Q  is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line 3x+y -15 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point Q( 0, b)

3x +y -15 =0, subtract 3x and add 15 to both sides

y= -3x +15 so b=15 and Q(0,15)

-R is the intersection of the two lines so is the solution of the system of equations y= (1/2)x +1 and y= -3x +15

(1/2)x +1 =  -3x +15, add 3x and subtract1

(1/2) x+3x = 15-1, combine like terms

(7/2)x = 14 , multiply both sides by 2

7x = 28, divide both sides by 7

x= 4

y= (1/2)x +1 = (4/2) +1 =3 so R(4,3)

- the area of ΔPQR is (base *height)/2

base= 15-1= 14

height = 4

A= (14*4)/2 = 14*2 = 28

The hundreds digit, [tex]x[/tex], can be any number from 1-9 inclusive, which contains 9 numbers.

The tens digit, 2, is fixed, as stipulated from the problem, and therefore may only be one number, 2.

Which is the minimum or maximum value of the given function?
dndnsn

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the function is not given. So, I will make an assumption.

A quadratic function is represented as:

[tex]f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]

If [tex]a > 0[/tex], then the function has a minimum x value

E.g. [tex]f(x) = 4x^2 - 5x + 8[/tex] ------ [tex]4 > 0[/tex]

Else, then the function has a maximum x value

E.g. [tex]f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8[/tex] ---- [tex]-4 < 0[/tex]

The maximum or minimum x value is calculated using:

[tex]x = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

For instance, the maximum of [tex]f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8[/tex] is:

[tex]x = -\frac{-5}{2*-4}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

So, the maximum of the function is:

[tex]f(x)= -4x^2 -5x + 8[/tex]

[tex]f(-\frac{5}{8}) = -4 * (-\frac{5}{8})^2 - 5 *(-\frac{5}{8}) +8[/tex]

[tex]f(-\frac{5}{8}) = 9.5625[/tex]

FINAL ANSWER:

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the middle number in the data set.

so first of ... we need to arrange the group of numbers from lower to greater.

16, 12, 10, 15, 7, 9, 16 ⇒ 7, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 16

Now that we have arranged the numbers from least to greatest all we need to do is to find the middle number of the data set (data set? they are the group of numbers)

Ok, so what you want to do here is to just count the numbers until you get to the middle number of the data set...

7, 9, 10, 12, 15, 16, 16

the median in the given data set is 12.

if the average of b and c is 8, and d=3b-4, what is the average of c and d in terms of b?

Answers

[tex] \underline{ \huge \mathcal{ Ànswér} } \huge: - [/tex]

Average of b and c is 8, that is

[tex]➢ \: \: b + c = 16[/tex]

[tex]➢ \: \: c = 16 - b[/tex]

Problem:

If the average of b and c is 8, and d=3b-4, what is the average of c and d in terms of b?

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given (b+c)/2=8 and d=3b-4.

We are asked to find (c+d)/2 in terms of variable, b.

We need to first solve (b+c)/2=8 for c.

Multiply both sides by 2: b+c=16.

Subtract b on both sides: c=16-b

Now let's plug in c=16-b and d=3b-4 into (c+d)/2:

([16-b]+[3b-4])/2

Combine like terms:

(12+2b)/2

Divide top and bottom by 2:

(6+1b)/1

Multiplicative identity property applied:

(6+b)/1

Anything divided by 1 is that anything:

(6+b)

Count the number of times you have to move the decimal point to the right until it is to the right of the 1st nonzero number.

A trough has ends shaped like isosceles triangles, with width 2 m and height 5 m, and the trough is 18 m long. Water is being pumped into the trough at a rate of 8 m3/min. At what rate (in m/min) does the height of the water change when the water is 2 m deep

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

   5/9 m/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The depth of the water is 2/5 of the depth of the trough, so the width of the surface will be 2/5 of the width of the trough:

  2/5 × 2 m = 4/5 m

Then the surface area of the water is ...

  A = LW = (18 m)(4/5 m) = 14.4 m²

The rate of change of height multiplied by the area gives the rate of change of volume:

  8 m³/min = (14.4 m²)(h')

  h' = (8 m³/min)/(14.4 m²) = 5/9 m/min
