Los Angeles workers have an average commute of 33 minutes. Suppose the LA commute time is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 15 minutes. Let X represent the commute time for a randomly selected LA worker. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible.
a. What is the distribution of X? X N
b. Find the probability that a randomly selected LA worker has a commute that is longer than 38 minutes
c. Find the 80th percentile for the commute time of LA workers. _______ minutes

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) N(33,15).

b) 37.33% probability that a randomly selected LA worker has a commute that is longer than 38 minutes

c) 45.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 33, \sigma = 15[/tex]

a. What is the distribution of X?

Normal with mean 33 and standard deviaton 15. So

N(33,15).

b. Find the probability that a randomly selected LA worker has a commute that is longer than 38 minutes

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 38. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{38 - 33}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.333[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.333[/tex]  has a pvalue of 0.6267.

1 - 0.6267 = 0.3733

37.33% probability that a randomly selected LA worker has a commute that is longer than 38 minutes

c. Find the 80th percentile for the commute time of LA workers.

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So it is X when Z = 0.84.

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

[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - 33}{15}[/tex]

[tex]X - 33 = 0.84*15[/tex]

[tex]X = 45.6[/tex]

45.6 minutes.

m is the number of months since it was planted and h is the plant's height in
centimeters, which statement is valid?
The vertical axis on a graph would
represent the number of months the plant
has been in the flowerbed.
The height of the plant is the dependent
variable.
The domain of the function represents the
height of the plant.
The variable m could be represented as
f(h).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the vertical axis would be h, the plant's height, and the horizontal axis would be m, the number of months. This would make statement 2 the only valid statement.

statement 1: Incorrect, as the vertical axis is the height

statement 2: correct, as h depends on m

statement 3: incorrect, as the domain is the horizontal and represents the number of months

statement 4: incorrect, as h = f(m)

To determine the density of grains, a student uses a 50ml beaker graded by 5ml increments and a scale with 1g absolute uncertainty. The measurement of the volume results in 3 full beakers and 1 beaker filled up to 30ml. Measured mass of a plastic container with all the grains is 185 grams; measured mass of the same container without grains is 65 grams. What is the mass of the grains

Answers

Answer:

The mass of the grains = 120 ± 1 g

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following:

Total mass of container + grains = 185 grams

Mass of container = 65 grams

Therefore, mass of grains is calculated as follows:

Mass of grains = ( Mass of container + grains) - mass of container

= 185 - 65 = 120 grams.

since the scale has an absolute uncertainty of 1 g, the mass of the grains is written as 120 ± 1 g

a cone has the diameter of 3 inches. the cone holds 12 cubic inches of water. to the nearest inch, what is the height of the cone?

Answers

Answer:

The height is about 5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume for a cone is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] × π × r² × h

The radius of the cone is 1.5

12= [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] × π × 1.5² × h

12= [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] × π × 2.25 × h

12=0.75×π×h

Divide both sides by 0.75

16=π×h

Divide both sides by π

5≈h

The height is about 5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

1rst person: Writing in first person means writing from the author's point of view or perspective. This point of view is used for autobiographical writing as well as narrative.

2 person: The second-person point of view belongs to the person (or people) being addressed. This is the “you” perspective. Once again, the biggest indicator of the second person is the use of second-person pronouns: you, your, yours, yourself, yourselves.

3 person:  In the third-person point of view, a narrator tells the reader the story, referring to the characters by name or by the third-person pronouns he, she, or they.

4 person: The term fourth person is also sometimes used for the category of indefinite or generic referents, which work like one in English phrases such as "one should be prepared" or people in people say that..., when the grammar treats them differently from ordinary third-person forms."

5 person:From a fifth person perspective, one starts to “feel” the system in a different way, recognizing that one's own perspective on and in the Anthropocene is merely a perspective, which itself is a perspective, which in turn is a perspective.

Parker marks sixths on number line. He writes 5/6 just before 1. What fraction does he write on the first mark to the right of 1?

Answers

Answer: 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

If he is writing sixths, then we have multiples of 1/6.

this is:

0*(1/6) = 0

1*(1/6) = 1/6

.

.

.

5*(1/6) = 5/6 (the numer he wrote at the left of 1)

6*(1/6) =  6/6 = 1

7*(1/6) = 7/6

So the number next to 1, (at the right of 1) must be 7/6.

You also can find it by adding 1/6 to 1.

1/6 + 1 = 1/6 + 6/6 = 7/6.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\fbox{\begin{minipage}{14em}Number of subsets: 16\\Number of proper subsets: 15\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The set A = {5, 13, 17, 20}

Question:

Find the number of subsets of A

Find the number of proper subsets of A

Simple solution by counting:

Subset of A that has 0 element:

{∅} - 1 set

Subset of A that has 1 element:

{5}, {13}, {17}, {20} - 4 sets

Subset of A that has 2 elements:

{5, 13}, {5, 17}, {5, 20}, {13, 17}, {13, 20}, {17, 20} - 6 sets

Subset of A that has 3 elements:

{5, 13, 17}, {5, 13, 20}, {5, 17, 20}, {13, 17, 20} - 4 sets

Subset of A that has 4 elements:

{5, 13, 17, 20} - 1 set

In total, the number of subsets of A: N = 1 + 4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 16

The number of proper subsets (all of subsets, except subset which is equal to original set A): N = 16 - 1 = 15

Key-point:

The counting method might be used for finding the number of subsets when the original set contains few elements.

The question is that, for a set that contains many elements, how to find out the number of subsets?

The answer is that: there is a fix formula to calculate the total number ([tex]N[/tex]) of subsets of a set containing [tex]n[/tex] elements: N = [tex]2^{n}[/tex]

With original set A = {5, 13, 17, 20}, there are 4 elements belonged to A.

=> Number of subsets of A: N = [tex]2^{4} = 16[/tex]

(same result as using counting method)

Brief proof of formula: N = [tex]2^{n}[/tex]

Each element of original set is considered in 2 status: existed or not.

If existed => fill that element in.

If not => leave empty.

For i.e.: empty subset means  that all elements are selected as not existed, subset with 1 element means that all elements are selected as not existed, except 1 element, ... and so on.

=> From the point of view of a permutation problem, for each element in original set, there are 2 ways to select: existed or not. There are [tex]n[/tex] elements in total. => There are [tex]2^n}[/tex] ways to select, or in other words, there are [tex]2^{n}[/tex] subsets.

3^x+1 = 9^ 5x
a. x=3
b. x = 1/3
c. x=9
d. x= 1/9

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

3^ (x+1) = 9 ^ (5x)

Replace 9 with 3^2

3^ (x+1) = 3^2 ^ (5x)

We know that a^b^c = a ^(b*c)

3^ (x+1) = 3^(2 * (5x))

3^ (x+1) = 3^(10x)

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

x+1 = 10x

Subtract x from each side

x+1-x = 10x-x

1 = 9x

Divide each side by 9

1/9 = 9x/9

1/9 =x

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric series converge if |r| < 1.

A) r = 3

B) r = 1/2

C) r = -4

D) r = 2

Only B has |r| < 1.

The converging sequence of geometric progression is given by the relation A = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 ... where the common ratio r = 1/2

What is Geometric Progression?

A geometric progression is a sequence in which each term is derived by multiplying or dividing the preceding term by a fixed number called the common ratio.

The nth term of a GP is aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

The general form of a GP is a, ar, ar2, ar3 and so on

Sum of first n terms of a GP is Sₙ = a(rⁿ-1) / ( r - 1 )

Given data ,

Let the geometric progression be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A = 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 + 1/8 ...

Now , the common ratio r of the GP is

r = second term / first term

On simplifying , we get

r = ( 1/2 ) / 1

r = 1/2

So , when | r | < 1 , the GP is a converging series

Hence , the GP is converging series

The perimeter of a rectangular parking lot is 320 m.
If the length of the parking lot is 97 m, what is its width?​

Answers

Answer:

63 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has 4 sides

2 of these sides are the lengths

The other 2 sides are the width

If the length of one side is 97 metres, the other side length must also be 97 metres

The two lengths then add together (97 + 97) to become 194 metres

Now we can use this information to calculate the width

320 (the total perimeter) subtract 194 (The total length) = 126 metres

This means that 126 metres is the total width

Because there are two sides which add up to the total width we divide 126 by 2

This allows us to get the measurement of the width

126 divided by 2 = 63 metres
