Suppose the length of an oarfish is normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 m and a standard deviation of 1.5 m. Which group describes 16% of the oarfish population? Select each correct answer. oarfish that are between 6.5 m and 9.5 m oarfish that are shorter than 5 m oarfish that are between 3.5 m and 9.5 m oarfish that are longer than 8 m

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the length of an oarfish. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

The given probability value is 16% = 0.16. From the normal distribution table, the z score corresponding to the probability value is - 0.99

This indicates that the sample mean is lower than the population mean

Therefore,

- 0.99 = (x - 6.5)/1.5

- 0.99 × 1.5 = x - 6.5

- 1.5 = x - 6.5

x = - 1.5 + 6.5

x = 5m

The correct answer is

oarfish that are shorter than 5 m

Answer 2

Answer:

oarfish that are shorter than 5

oarfish that are longer than 8 m

In one school, a half of all students who like math like science as well. Also, in that school, a third of all students who like science also like math.
b)
In that school, what is the ratio of the number of students who like math to the number of students who like science?

Answers

Answer: Is there a total for how many kids like each? If there isn't than this is how I would solve it. For percentage purposes let's say there are 100 students. 50 like math, 50 like science. Half of the students who like math also like science, which means 75 percent of the school likes science. A third of students who like science also like math, and since 75 percent of the school of 100 children likes science, that would mean 1/3 of that is 25, which would mean 75 percentof all students like math. Hence the ratio, I believe, is 1 to 1.

Solve the following problem:

Given: △SAL, SA = LA

AT − ∠bisector

Prove: m∠L = m∠S

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\angle L=\angle S[/tex] using congruence rule

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ΔSAL, SA = LA and AT is the bisector of [tex]\angle A[/tex]

To prove: [tex]\angle L=\angle S[/tex]

Proof:

Two triangles are congruent if they have same shape and same size.

Consider triangles ALT and AST

AL = AS

As AT bisects [tex]\angle A[/tex], [tex]\angle LAT=\angle SAT\\[/tex]

AT = AT (common side)

So, [tex]\Delta ALT\cong \Delta AST[/tex] ( by SAS congruence rule )

Here, SAS denotes side-angle-side

[tex]\angle L=\angle S[/tex] (using corresponding parts of congruent triangles)

Hence proved

Explanation:

First, we know that △ALT ≅ △AST, because of Side Angle Side Theorem. Next, we know that AL ≅ AS, because it's given.

Since A = A, we can remove A and it gives us m∠L = m∠S.

If you need to show work in math terms, your answer should look something like this:

1. △ ALT ≅ △AST - SAS

2. AL ≅ AS - Given

3. m∠ L ≅ m∠S

Hope this helped!

8 + 10 - 6k = 6(4 - k)

Answers

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

8 + 10 - 6k = 6(4 - k)

Distribute

8 + 10 - 6k = 24 -6k

Combine like terms

18 -6k = 24 -6k

Add 6k  to each side

18 - 6k +6k = 24 - 6k+6k

18 = 24

This is never true so there are no solutions

Hey there! I'm happy to help you out!

To solve for k, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation and put all the constants on the other side.

The first thing we need to do is get the k on the right side out of parentheses. To do this, we will use the distributive property!

8+10-6k=24-6k

Now, we will combine like terms.

18-6k=24-6k

We want to get all the ks on the left side and all the constants on the right. Let's add six k to both sides to cancel out the -6k on the right.

18=24

As you can see, our variables canceled out. This is because our equation was saying 18 minus six of something was equal to 24 minus six of something, which makes no sense because that doesn't work!

We are left with 18=24, which isn't even a true equation! Therefore, there is no solution to this equation.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

The probability that an egg on a production line is cracked is 0.01. Two eggs are selected at random from the production line. Find the probability that at least one egg is cracked. Write the entire decimal answer.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(X \geq 1)=1-P(X<1)= 1- P(X=0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of craked eggs", on this case we now that:

[tex]X \sim Binom(n=2, p=0.01)[/tex]

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

[tex]P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

[tex]nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}[/tex]

And we want to find this probability:

[tex]P(x \geq 1)=1-P(X<1)= 1- P(X=0)[/tex]

And we can find the probability:

[tex]P(X=0)=(2C0)(0.01)^0 (1-0.01)^{2-0}=0.9801[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] P(X \geq 1) = 1-0.9801 = 0.0199[/tex]


When Sophia runs the 400 meter dash, her finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 75 seconds and a standard deviation of 1.1 second. What probability of races will her finishing time be between 74.2 and 76.4 seconds?

Round to the hundredths place (2 places after the decimal)

Answers

Answer: 90% of the time.

Step-by-step explanation: This is because you can add the two different times and the standard time of 75 seconds, divide it all by 3 leaving you with 75.2 and that is 0.2 away from the original between those times all together. Take that 0.2 and subtract it from the 1.1 deviation and you’ll get 0.9 times that by 100 and you get it in a percentage; 90%.

The radius of a circle is 4 miles. What is the area of a sector bounded by a 180 arc?

Answers

Answer:

The area of sector is [tex]25.12 miles^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of circle = 4 miles

We are supposed to find the area of a sector bounded by a 180 arc

[tex]\theta = 180^{\circ}[/tex]

Area of sector =[tex]\frac{\theta}{360^{\circ}} \pi r^2[/tex]

Area of sector = [tex]\frac{180^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 4^2[/tex]

Area of sector = [tex]25.12 miles^2[/tex]

Hence The area of sector is [tex]25.12 miles^2[/tex]
