The time it takes a customer service complaint to be settled at a small department store is normally distributed with a mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.
Answer:
0.0475 = 4.75% probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.
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.
Mean of 10 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes
This means that [tex]\mu = 10, \sigma = 3[/tex]
Find the probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 15, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{15 - 10}{3}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9525.
1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475.
0.0475 = 4.75% probability that a randomly selected complaint takes more than 15 minutes to be settled.

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2
Answer:
0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.
This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.
10 days:
This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]
What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]
0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.
A Food Marketing Institute found that 34% of households spend more than $125 a week on groceries. Assume the population proportion is 0.34 and a simple random sample of 124 households is selected from the population. What is the probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31
Answer:
0.2405 = 24.05% probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31.
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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Assume the population proportion is 0.34 and a simple random sample of 124 households is selected from the population.
This means that [tex]p = 0.34, n = 124[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.34[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.34*0.66}{124}} = 0.0425[/tex]
What is the probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.31, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.31 - 0.34}{0.0425}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.705[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.705[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2405.
0.2405 = 24.05% probability that the sample proportion of households spending more than $125 a week is less than 0.31.

The population, P(t), in millions, of a country, in year t, is given by the formula P(t) = 24 + 0.4t. What are the values of the population for t = 10, 20,
and 30?
Answer:
B. 28, 32, 36 millions
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
Where,
P(t) = population in millions
t = number of years
✔️Value of the population when t = 10:
Plug in t = 10 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(10)
P(t) = 24 + 4
P(t) = 28 million
✔️Value of the population when t = 20:
Plug in t = 20 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(20)
P(t) = 24 + 8
P(t) = 32 million
✔️Value of the population when t = 30:
Plug in t = 30 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(30)
P(t) = 24 + 12
P(t) = 36 million

Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is the ratio of lengths of corresponding sides:
XZ/AC = 3/12 = 1/4
_____
Additional comment
I find the wording of the question a bit ambiguous. To transform ΔABC to ΔXYZ, every linear dimension of ΔABC is multiplied by 1/4. This is the sense of "ΔABC to ΔXYZ" that is used in the above answer.
On the other hand, one of the ways ratios are written is using the word "to," as in "12 to 3". Using this idea, we might interpret the question to be asking for ...
ΔABC to ΔXYZ = AC to XZ = 12 to 3 = 12/3 = 4
A box contains 16 large marbles and 18 small marbles. Each marble is either green or white. 9 of the large marbles are green, and 3 of the small marbles are white. If a marble is randomly selected from the box, what is the probability that it is small or green
Answer:
[tex]P(S&G) =0.7941[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Sample size [tex]n=16+18=>34[/tex]
N0 of Large [tex]L=16[/tex]
N0 of Small [tex]S=18[/tex]
N0 large Green [tex]L_g=9[/tex]
N0 of small White [tex]S_w=3[/tex]
Therefore
Number of green marbles [tex]N0(G)=9+(18-3)[/tex]
Number of green marbles [tex]N0(G)=24[/tex]
Generally the Number of both small and green Marble is
[tex]N0 of (S&G)= 18 - 3 = 15[/tex]
Generally the probability that it is small or green P(S&G) is mathematically given by
[tex]P(S&G) = \frac{(18 + 24 - 15)}{(18 + 16)}[/tex]
[tex]P(S&G) =0.7941[/tex]
which of the following is not an asymptote of the hyperbola xy = -42? y = 0 x = 0 y = x
Given:
The equation of the hyperbola is:
[tex]xy=-42[/tex]
To find:
The the equation which is not an asymptote of the hyperbola.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]xy=-42[/tex]
It can be written as:
[tex]y=\dfrac{-42}{x}[/tex]
Equating denominator and 0, we get
[tex]x=0[/tex]
So, the vertical asymptotic is [tex]x=0[/tex].
The degree of numerator is 0 and the degree of denominator is 1.
Since the degree of numerator is greater that the degree of denominator, therefore the horizontal asymptote is [tex]y=0[/tex] and there is no oblique asymptote.
Therefore, [tex]y=x[/tex] is not an asymptote of the given hyperbola and the correct option is C.
Ethan buys a video game on sale. If the video game usually costs $60, and it was on sale for 20% off, how much did Ethan pay? Round to the nearest whole dollar.
Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.
How? This is the answer because:
If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...
1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)
2. the ratio will look like this: 39.99/100% x/20%
3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!
4 39.99 x
---------- = ----------
100 20
-price is on the top and percent on the bottom
-you would now do 39.99 times 20
-then divide by 100
5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total
6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)

Bill invested $4000 at 6%
compounded annually. Find the
accumulated amount at the end of
12 years.
Answer:
$ 8048.79Step-by-step explanation:
P = $4000t = 12 yearsr = 6% = 0.06Formula:
A = P(1 + r)^tThe total amount:
A = 4000*(1 + 0.06)^12 = 8048.79We have to find the,
Accumulated amount at end of 12 years.
The formula we use,
→ A = P(1+r)^t
It is given that,
→ P = $4000
→ t = 12 years
Then r will be,
→ 6%
→ 6/100
→ 0.06
Then the total amount is,
→ P(1+r)^t
→ 4000 × (1 + 0.06)^12
→ 8048.79
Thus, $ 8048.79 is the amount.

Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Rounding each number to 4 significant figures and expressing in standard notation :
(a) 102.53070,
Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ;
102.53070 = 102.5 (4 significant figures) = 1.025 * 10^2
(b) 656.980,
Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ; the value after the 4th significant value is greater than 5, it is rounded to 1 and added to the significant figure.
656.980 = 657.0 (4 significant figures) = 6.57 * 10^2
(c) 0.008543210,
Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;
0.008543210 = 0.008543 (4 significant figures) = 8.543 * 10^-3
(d) 0.000257870,
Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;
0.000257870 = 0.0002579 (4 significant figures) = 2.579 * 10^-4
(e) -0.0357202,
Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;
-0.0357202 = - 0.03572 (4 significant figures) = - 3.572* 10^-2
A random sample of 64 students at a university showed an average age of 25 years and a sample standard deviation of 2 years. The 98% confidence interval for the true average age of all students in the university is
Answer:
24.4185<x<25.5815
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following:
n = 64
mean x = 25
s = 2
z is the z score at 98% CI = 2.326
Get the Confidence Interval:
CI = x±z*s/√n
CI = 25±2.326*2/√64
CI = 25±2.326*2/8
CI = 25±0.5815
CI = (25-0.5815, 25+0.5815)
CI = (24.4185, 25.5815)
CI = 24.4185<x<25.5815
Hence the 98% confidence interval for the true average age of all students in the university is 24.4185<x<25.5815
A presidential candidate plans to begin her campaign by visiting the capitals in 3 of 47 states. What is the probability that she selects the route of three specific capitals?
Answer:
1 / 97290
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways of selecting 3 specific route capitals from 47 states can be obtained thus :
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes = 47P3
Recall :
nPr = n! / (n-r)!
47P3 = 47! / (47-3)! = 47! / 44! = 97290
Hence, probability of selecting route if 3 specific capitals is = 1 / 97290

b) 39,600
c) ₹28,755
Step-by-step explanation:
These are all simple calculator problems. The arithmetic involved is something you learned in 2nd or 3rd grade.
__
a) Since we divide using the division algorithm, it isn't clear what "check your answer by division algorithm" is intended to mean. The result of the division (stopping at 1 decimal place) is 3092.5.
The usual method of checking a division problem is to multiply the quotient by the divisor to see if the dividend value is the result. Here, we have ...
13×3092.5 = 40202.5
This differs by from the dividend of 40203 by 0.5, which is the remainder showing in our long division. In short, the answer checks OK.

5
If the family has three pets, what is the theoretical probability that they have three dogs or
three cats?
How could you change the simulation to generate data for three pets
6
let dogs be heads. Let cats be tails. A coin has two sides, in which you are flipping two of them. Note that there can be the possible outcomes
h-h, h-t, t-h, t-t.
How this affects the possibility of two dogs & two cats. Note that there are 1/2 a chance of getting those two (with the others being one of each), which means that out of 4 chances, 2 are allowed.
2/4 = 1/2
50% is your answer
Heads represents cats and tails represents dogs. There is two coins because we are checking the probability of two pets. You have to do the experiment to get your set of data, once you get your set of data, you will be able to divide it into the probability for cats or dogs. To change the simulation to generate data for 3 pets, simply add a new coin and category for the new pet.
