Answer:
a
The percentage is
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%[/tex]
b
The probability is [tex]P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 800[/tex]
The variance is [tex]var(x) = 1600 \ kg[/tex]
The range consider is [tex]x_1 = 778 \ kg \ x_2 = 834 \ kg[/tex]
The value consider in second question is [tex]x = 900 \ kg[/tex]
Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{var (x)}[/tex]
substituting value
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{1600}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 40[/tex]
The percentage of a cucumber give the crop amount between 778 and 834 kg is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{x_1 - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } < \frac{x_2 - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]
Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } = Z (standardized \ value \ of \ X)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{778 - 800 }{40} < Z< \frac{834 - 800 }{40 } )[/tex]
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P(z_2 < 0.85) - P(z_1 < -0.55)[/tex]
From the z-table the value for [tex]P(z_1 < 0.85) = 0.80234[/tex]
and [tex]P(z_1 < -0.55) = 0.29116[/tex]
So
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.80234 - 0.29116[/tex]
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.51118[/tex]
The percentage is
[tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%[/tex]
The probability of cucumber give the crop exceed 900 kg is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(X > x ) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]P(X > x ) = P( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } >\frac{900 - 800 }{40 } )[/tex]
[tex]P(X > x ) = P(Z >2.5 )[/tex]
From the z-table the value for [tex]P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097[/tex]

STUCK Basic geometry A for senior year school
Answer:
(C) A reflection across a horizontal line and a horizontal translation
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that, near the x-axis, these shapes are 3 y values away from the x-axis, meaning that if we reflect one over the x-axis we will be at the same y values as the other shape.
Reflecting these points shows that we’ve got the same shape, just skewed the one side. We can then translate this shape horizontally to get it to where we want it.

Answer: hello below is the complete question
How many adults must be randomly selected to estimate the mean FICO (credit rating) score of working adults in a country? We want 90% confidence that the sample mean is within 4 points of the population mean, and the population standard deviation is 66. Round up to the nearest whole number
answer : 737 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
confidence interval = 90% = 0.9
( E ) = 4
standard deviation = 66
first we have to calculate the value of a
a = 1 - confidence interval
= 1 - 0.9 = 0.10 hence a / 2 = 0.05
next find the value of Z a/2 from table
Z[tex]_{0.05}[/tex] = 1.645
The number of Adults selected can be determined using this relation
N = [tex](Z_{a/2} * (s/E))^2[/tex]
= [tex](Z_{0.05} * ( 66/4))^2[/tex]

SHALL GIVE BRAINLIEST ANSWER!! A 40% solution of fertilizer is to be mixed with an 80% solution of fertilizer in order to get 80 gallons of a 70% solution. How many gallons of the 40% solution and 80% solution should be mixed? 40% solution =? gallons, 80% solution =? gallons
Answer:
20 gallons of the 40% solution, 60 gallons of the 80% solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the gallons of the 40% solution, and y = the gallons of a 80% solution. The first thing we want to do here is to convert each percentage into decimal form - including the 70% solution mixture.
40% = 0.40,
80% = 0.80, respectively 70% = 0.70
As you can tell, 0.40 is associated with x gallons, 0.80 is associated with y gallons, and the mixture contains 0.70 [tex]*[/tex] 80 solution, as 0.70 is associated with 80. Therefore we can formulate the following expression,
0.40x + 0.80y = 0.70 [tex]*[/tex] 80
At the same time x + y = 80, as the solution ( mixture ) is present with 80 gallons. Isolating x, x = 80 - y. Let us plug that into our expression, solving for y, following by x gallons.
[tex]0.40\left(\:80\:-\:y\:\right)\:+\:0.80y\:=\:0.70\:\cdot \:80[/tex]
[tex]0.4\left(80-y\right)+0.8y=56[/tex] ( Multiply either side by 10 )
[tex]4\left(80-y\right)+8y=560[/tex] ( Expand )
[tex]320-4y+8y=560[/tex]
[tex]320+4y=560[/tex]
[tex]4y=240[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{240}{4} = 60[/tex] ( Substitute to solve for x )
[tex]x = 80 - y = 80 - 60 = 20[/tex]
As you can see there are 20 gallons of the 40% solution, and 60 gallons of the 80% solution.

An airplane travels 1200 miles in 4 hours with the wind. The same trip takes 5 hours against the wind. What is the speed of the plane in still air and what is the wind speed?
Answer:
Speed of plane in still air is 270 mph
Wind speed is 30 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Check the picture.
The speed of the plane in still air is 270 mph and the speed of the wind will be 30 mph.
What is the distance formula?The distance traveled by an object is the product of the speed of an object and the time taken.
Distance = speed x time
An airplane travels 1200 miles in 4 hours with the wind. The same trip takes 5 hours against the wind.
Let the speed of the plane be x
The speed of wind be y
Distance covered with the wind = (x + y)t
1200 = (x + y)4
(x + y) = 1200/4
(x + y)= 300 .....(a)
Distance covered against the wind = (x - y)t
1200 = (x - y)5
(x - y) = 1200/5
(x - y) = 240 .......(b)
By solving both the equation
(x + y)= 300
(x - y) = 240
Therefore the values will be x= 270mph and y = 30 mph

In a recent year, a sample of grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 281 with a standard deviation of 34.4. Possible test scores could range from 0 to 500. Assume that the scores are normally distributed. Question 9 (2.5 points) If 2000 students are randomly selected, how many would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305?
Answer:
The number is [tex]N =1147[/tex] students
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 281[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 34.4[/tex]
The sample size is n = 2000
percentage of the would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(\frac{ 250 - 281}{34.4 } < \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ 305 - 281}{34.4 } )[/tex]
Generally
[tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (Standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]
So
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(-0.9012< Z<0.698 )[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(z_2 < 0.698 ) - P(z_1 < -0.9012)[/tex]
From the z table the value of [tex]P( z_2 < 0.698) = 0.75741[/tex]
and [tex]P(z_1 < -0.9012) = 0.18374[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.75741 - 0.18374[/tex]
[tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.57[/tex]
The percentage is [tex]P(250 < X < 305 ) = 57\%[/tex]
The number of students that will get this score is
[tex]N = 2000 * 0.57[/tex]
[tex]N =1147[/tex]
a golfer hits the golf ball. the quadratic y = -14x^2+84x gives the time x seconds when the golf ball is at height 0 feet. In total, how long is the golf ball in the air?
Answer: 6 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
x refers to time. Since we want to know how long it is in the air, we need to find the time (x) when the ball lands on the ground (y = 0)
0 = -14x² + 84x
0 = -14x(x - 6)
0 = -14x 0 = x - 6
0 = x 6 = x
x = 0 seconds is when the ball was hit
x = 6 seconds is when the ball landed on the ground

Beer shelf life is a problem for brewers and distributors because when beer is stored at room temperature, its flavor deteriorates. When the average furfuryl ether content reaches 6 μg per liter, a typical consumer begins to taste an unpleasant chemical flavor. At α = .05, would the following sample of 12 randomly chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold? 8.92 6.99 5.54 5.73 6.38 5.51 6.45 7.50 8.48 5.56 6.90 6.46
Answer:
As the calculated value of t =2.1698 is greater than t (0.05,11) = 1.796 reject H0 . It means chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold.
Step-by-step explanation:
We formulate our null and alternative hypotheses as
H0 u≤ 6 ug Ha : u > 6 ug
The significance level ∝ = 0.05
The test statistic used is
t = X` - u / s/ √n
which if H0 is true, has the students' t test with n-1 = 11 degrees of freedom.
The critical region t > t (0.05,11) = 1.796
We compute the t value from the data
Xi Xi²
8.92 79.5664
6.99 48.8601
5.54 30.6916
5.73 32.8329

5.51 30.3601
6.45 41.6025
7.50 56.25
8.48 71.9104
5.56 30.9136
6.90 47.61
6.46 41.7316
80.42 553.0336
Now x` = ∑x/ n = 80.42/12 = 6.70
S²= 1/n-1 ( ∑(xi- x`)²= 1/11 ( 553.034 - (80.42)²/12)
= 1/11 (553.034-538.948) = 1.2805
s= 1.1316
Putting the values in the test statistics
t = X` - u / s/ √n = 6.70- 6 / 1.1316 / √12
= 2.1698
The critical region t > t (0.05,11) = 1.796
As the calculated value of t =2.1698 is greater than t (0.05,11) = 1.796 reject H0 . It means chosen bottles stored for a month convince you that the mean furfuryl ether content exceeds the taste threshhold.
In a school, there are 25% fewer 11th graders than 10th graders, and 20% more 11th graders than 12th graders. The total number of students in 10th, 11th, and 12th grades in the school is 190. How many 10th graders are there at the school?
Answer:
There are 80 10th graders in the school
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of 10th graders be x
There are 25% fewer 11th graders
That mean x - 25% of x
x -0.25x = 0.75x
There are 20% more 11th graders than 12th graders
So if number of 12th graders = y, then
0.75x = y + 20/100 * y = y + 0.2y = 1.2y
Since ;
0.75x = 1.2y
then y = 0.75x/1.2 = 0.625x
So let’s add all to give 190
x + 0.75x + 0.625x = 190
2.375x = 190
x = 190/2.375
x = 80

The table shows the results of a survey in which 10th-grade students were asked how many siblings (brothers and/or sisters) they have. A 2-column table has 4 rows. The first column is labeled Number of siblings with entries 0, 1, 2, 3. The second column is labeled number of students with entries 4, 18, 10, 8. What is the experimental probability that a 10th-grade student chosen at random has at least one, but no more than two, siblings? Round to the nearest whole percent. 65% 70% 75% 80%
Answer:
70%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Number of Siblings: || 0 || 1 || 2 || 3
Number of Students: || 4 || 18 || 10 || 8
Required
Determine the probability of a student having at least one but not more than 2 siblings
First, we have to determine the total number of 10th grade students
[tex]Total = 4 + 18 + 10 + 8[/tex]
[tex]Total = 40[/tex]
The probability of a student having at least one but not more than 2 siblings = P(1) + P(2)
Solving for P(1)
P(1) = number of students with 1 sibling / total number of students
From the given parameters, we have that:
Number of students with 1 sibling = 18
So:
[tex]P(1) = \frac{18}{40}[/tex]
Solving for P(2)
P(2) = number of students with 2 siblings / total number of students
From the given parameters, we have that:
Number of students with 2 siblings = 10
So:
[tex]P(2) = \frac{10}{40}[/tex]
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = \frac{18}{40} + \frac{10}{40}[/tex]
Take LCM
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = \frac{18 + 10}{40}[/tex]
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = \frac{28}{40}[/tex]
Divide numerator and denominator by 4
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = \frac{7}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = 0.7[/tex]
Convert to percentage
[tex]P(1) + P(2) = 70\%[/tex]
Hence, the required probability is 70%

PLEASE HELP SOON! A 2011 study by the National Safety Council estimated that there are nearly 5.7 million traffic accidents year. At least 28% of them involved distracted drivers using a cell phones or texting. The data showed that 11% of drivers at any time are using cell phones. Car insurance companies base their policy rates on accident data that shows drivers have collisions approximately once every 19 years. That's a 5.26% chance per per year. Given.
A - Let dc= event that a randomly selected driver is using a cell phone. what is P(DC)? B - Let ta = event that a randomly selected driver has a traffic accident. what is P(ta) C - how can you determine if cell phone use while driving and traffic accidents are related? D - Give that the driver has an accident, what is the probability that the driver was distracted by a cell phone? Write this event with the correct conditional notation.
Answer:
(A) 0.11
(B) 0.0526
(C) Related
(D) 0.28
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided is:
DC = event that a randomly selected driver is using a cell phone
TA = event that a randomly selected driver has a traffic accident
(A)
From the provided data:
P (DC) = 0.11
(B)
From the provided data:
P (TA) = 0.0526
(C)
To determine whether the events DC and TA are dependent, we need to show that:
[tex]P(DC\cap TA)\neq P(DC)\times P(TA)[/tex]
The value of P (DC ∩ TA) is,
[tex]P(DC\cap TA)=P(DC|TA)\time P(TA)[/tex]
[tex]=0.28\times 0.0526\\=0.014728[/tex]
Now compute the value of P (DC) × P (TA) as follows:
[tex]P (DC) \times P (TA)=0.11\times 0.0526=0.005786[/tex]
So, [tex]P(DC\cap TA)\neq P(DC)\times P(TA)[/tex]
Thus, cell phone use while driving and traffic accidents are related.
(D)
The probability that the driver was distracted by a cell phone given that the driver has an accident is:
P (DC | TA) = 0.28

In Triangle A B C, what is the value of x? Triangle A B C. Angle A is (10 x minus 10) degrees, angle B is (8 x) degrees, angle C is (10 x + 8) degrees.
Answer:
6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of all angles in a triangle are 180 degrees.
=> 10x -10 + 8x + 10x + 8 = 180
=> 28x -2 = 180
=> 28x = 182
=> x = 6.5
So, Angle A = 10 x 6.5 -10 = 65 - 10 = 55 degrees
Angle B = 8 x 6.5 = 52 degrees
Angle C = 10 x 6.5 + 8 = 65 + 8 = 73 degrees.
55 + 52 + 73 = 55 + 125 = 180 degrees

Answer:
[tex]\text{Ratio as a fraction - \: \boxed{\frac{8}{18}}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Fraction in simplest form - \boxed{\frac{4}{9}}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1: Writing a ratio as a fraction
A fraction and a ratio are the same thing - just a different name. Therefore, the colon in a ratio is the same as a divisor line in a fraction. Therefore, to write a ratio as a fraction,
Replace the colon with a divisor line or the divisor line with a colon (use the first portion to transform a ratio into a fraction and the second form to transform a fraction into a ratio).Therefore, 8:18 as a fraction is 8/18.
Part 2: Fraction in simplest form
To put a fraction in simplest form, first divide the numerator by the denominator. If it contains a remainder, you cannot use this step to verify it.
8 only goes into 18 twice and leaves a 2 as a remainder, so this method does not work.
Instead, if both numbers are even, divide by 2.
8/2 = 4
18/2 = 9
Check to see if the new numerator and denominator can reduce any further.
4/9 = 4/9
The fraction in simplest form is 4/9.

what is 76.32 divided by 24.98 using compatible numbers to estimate each quotient?
Answer:
Approximately 3.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Using "compatible numbers" we can simply round these numbers to integer values. Let's make 76.32 => 76 and 24.98 => 25
So from here let's do 76/25 to get 3 R 1/25
1/25 as a decimal is .04
So far, we have 3.04. Going back to Look at our decimals, .32 and .98, there is a larger difference in our down rounding with the .32 than the up rounding from our .98. So we should consider an extra value in our decimal.
Considering our whole number of 3.0, we can assume that our rounding will have an increase of about .01 or .015 in error.
Thus our number will be 3.04 + .01.
Making our quotient approximately 3.05.
Cheers.
Luis’s cedar chest measures 4 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 2 ¼ feet high. What is the volume of the chest?
Answer:
[tex]4 {ft}^{3} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2 \times \frac{1}{4} = 0.5 \\ v = lbh \\ 4 \times 2 \times 0.5 \\ = 8 \times 0.5 \\ = 4 {ft}^{3} [/tex]
The volume of Luis’s cedar chest is 18 cubic feet.
The dimensions of Luis’s cedar chest are length=4 feet, width=2 feet and height=2 1/4 feet.
What is the formula to find the volume of the cuboid?The volume of the cuboid is the measure of the space occupied within a cuboid. The cuboid is a three-dimensional shape that has length, breadth, and height. If we have a rectangular sheet and we go on stacking such sheets, we will end up getting a shape that has some length, breadth, and height.
The formula to find the volume of the cuboid is l×b×h.
Where, l=length, b=breadth or width and h=height.
Now, volume=4×2×2.25=18 cubic feet.
Therefore, the volume of Luis’s cedar chest is 18 cubic feet.

A hockey team is convinced that the coin used to determine the order of play is weighted. The team captain steals this special coin and flips it 14 times to evaluate the hypothesis that the coin is weighted, and it shows up heads 12 times. Test this hypothesis (use alpha=.05).
1. What is the appropriate test?
2. State the null hypothesis:
3. State the alternative hypothesis:
4. Find the critical value:
5. Calculate the obtained statistic:
6. Make a decision:
7. What does your decision mean
Answer:
Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p be the probability of heads in a single toss of the coin. Then our null hypothesis that the coin is fair will be formulated as
H0 :p 0.5 against Ha: p ≠ 0.5
The significance level is approximately 0.05
The test statistic to be used is number of heads x.
Critical Region: First we compute the probabilities associated with X the number of heads using the binomial distribution
Heads (x) Probability (X=x) Cumulative Decumulative
0 1/16384 (1) 0.000061 0.000061
1 1/16384 (14) 0.00085 0.000911
2 1/16384 (91) 0.00555 0.006461
3 1/16384(364) 0.02222
4 1/16384(1001) 0.0611
5 1/16384(2002) 0.122188
6 1/16384(3003) 0.1833
7 1/16384(3432) 0.2095
8 1/16384(3003) 0.1833
9 1/16384(2002) 0.122188
10 1/16384(1001) 0.0611
11 1/16384(364) 0.02222
12 1/16384(91) 0.00555 0.006461
13 1/16384(14) 0.00085 0.000911
14 1/16384(1) 0.000061 0.000061
We use the cumulative and decumulative column as the critical region is composed of two portions of area ( probability) one in each tail of the distribution. If alpha = 0.05 then alpha by 2 - 0.025 ( area in each tail).
We observe that P (X≤2) = 0.006461 > 0.025
and
P ( X≥12 ) = 0.006461 > 0.025
Therefore true significance level is
∝= P (X≤0)+P ( X≥14 ) = 0.000061+0.000061= 0.000122
Hence critical region is (X≤0) and ( X≥14)
Computation x= 12
Since x= 12 (0.006461) does not fall in the critical region so we accept our null hypothesis and conclude that the coin is fair.
