For a 4-unit class like Statistics, students should spend average of 12 hours studying for the class. A survey was done on 24 students, and the distribution of total study hours per week is bell-shaped with a mean of 13 hours and a standard deviation of 2.8 hours. Use the Empirical Rule to answer the following questions.
a) 68% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.
b) 95% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.
c) 99.7% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 68% of the students spend between 10.2 hours and 15.8 hours on Statistics each week.

b) 95% of the students spend between 7.4 hours and 18.6 hours on Statistics each week.

c) 99.7% of the students spend between 4.6 hours and 21.4 hours on Statistics each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed(bell-shaped) random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 13 hours

Standard deviation = 2.8 hours.

a) 68% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

13 - 2.8 = 10.2 hours

13 + 2.8 = 15.8 hours

68% of the students spend between 10.2 hours and 15.8 hours on Statistics each week.

b) 95% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean

13 - 2*2.8 = 7.4 hours

13 + 2*2.8 = 18.6 hours

95% of the students spend between 7.4 hours and 18.6 hours on Statistics each week.

c) 99.7% of the students spend between hours and hours on Statistics each week.

Within 3 standard deviations of the mean

13 - 3*2.8 = 4.6 hours

13 + 3*2.8 = 21.4 hours

99.7% of the students spend between 4.6 hours and 21.4 hours on Statistics each week.

Answers

Answer:

The terms of the polynomial are relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two numbers are said to be relatively prime if their greatest common factor ( GCF ) is 1 .

Now, the expression we are given in the question is a polynomial;

y² + 7.

The terms of the polynomial y² + 7 are y² and 7 and have no common factor and in fact cannot be factorized further. Thus, these terms are said to be relatively prime because the highest integer that divides them both is 1.

Find the equation for the plane through the points Upper P0 (-2 ,2 ,-5),Q0 (1,2,-1), and Upper R0 (-1,-5,4 ).
The equation of plane is:________

Answers

Answer:

28x - 23y - 21z = 3  

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find two vectors in the plane as:

vector PQ = Q - P = (1, 2, -1) - (-2, 2, -5) = (3, 0, 4)

vector PR = R - P = (-1, -5, 4) - (-2 ,2 ,-5) = (1, -7, 9)

Then, we need to find a normal vector to the plane as:

PQ x RQ = ((0*9)-(4*-7), -(3*(9)-(4*1), (3*-7)-(0*1))

PQ x RQ = (28, -23, -21)

Finally, the equation of a plane is:

A(x-x0) + B(y-y0) + C(z-z0) = 0

Where (A,B,C) is a normal vector to the plane and (x0, y0, z0) is a point in the plane. So, replacing (A,B,C) by (28, -23, -21) and (x0, y0, z0) by P0(-2,2,-5), we can write the equation of the plane as:

28(x+2) - 23(y-2) - 21(z+5) = 0

Solving, we get:

28x + 56 - 23y + 46 - 21z - 105 = 0

28x - 23y - 21z - 3 = 0

28x - 23y - 21z = 3

monthly over the next 10 years to the insurer.
What type of insurance should he buy?

A annuity
B premium
C dividends
D liability

Answers

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Premium insurance is an insurance amount paid to the insurer periodically. In this type of insurance, the insurer is required to provide coverage. This insurance policy covers healthcare, life, auto, home, etc. In this insurance, one is required to pay a certain amount of money on monthly, quarterly, or annually basis.

In the given scenario, Sean should buy premium insurance as it covers life and healthcare insurance as well. He can pay $500 on monthly basis to the insurance company. And after Sean's death, his son can claim the amount.

The Fan Cost Index​ (FCI) represents the cost of four​ average-price​ tickets, refreshments, and souvenirs to a sporting event. The FCIs for an independent golf league and an independent arena football league totaled ​$124.41. The arena football FCI was ​$7.79 more than that of golf. What were the FCIs for these​ sports?

Answers

Answer:

Golf league FCI = $58.31

Arena football league FCI = $66.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let G be the fan cost index for the golf league and F be the fan cost index for the football league. The following system of equations can be modeled from the given information:

[tex]F+G = 124.41\\F=G+7.79[/tex]

Solving this linear system (substituting the second equation into the first one):

[tex]7.79+G+G = 124.41\\G= \$58.31\\F = 58.31+7.79\\F=\$66.10[/tex]

Golf league FCI = $58.31

Arena football league FCI = $66.10

Answers

The correct answer is B. $100,000

Explanation:

The graphic shows how the value of the piece of land changed from the moment it was bought to five years later by relating the value in the y-axis to the years passed in the x-axis. The initial value or purchase price of the land is the value shown in the y-axis at 0 years (x-axis )or the first orange dot because this is the initial value of the land before any time had passed. According to this, the value is $100,000 considering the number in this intersection is 100 but this is the value in thousands of dollars.

Area Formulas

The formulas for the areas of the various shapes are ...

square: A = s²rectangle: A = LWcircle: A = πr² . . . . . . where r is half the diameter

Square

The area of the square table is ...

  A = (36 in)² = 1296 in²

Rectangle

The area of the rectangular table is ...

  A = (20 in)(73 in) = 1460 in²

Circle

You can eliminate the square table right away by realizing the rectangular table is more than twice as long, and more than half as wide. If the rectangle were 18 in by 72 in, it would have the same area as the square.

A restaurant serves hot chocolate that has a mean temperature of 175 degrees with a standard deviation of 6.2 degrees. Find the probability that a randomly selected cup of hot chocolate would have a temperature of less than 164 degrees. Would this outcome warrant a replacement cup (meaning that it would be unusual)?Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

3.8% , unusual

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean is 175 degrees (m) and the standard deviation is 6.2 degrees (sd), so we are asked:

P (x <164)

P ((x - m) / sd <(164 -175) /6.2)

P (z <- 1.77)

If we look in the normal distribution table we have to:

P (x <164) = 0.0384

That is, the probability is 3.8%

Unusual is when the probability is less than 5%, that is to say in this case if it can be said that an unusual data.

The height of a stream of water from the nozzle of a fire hose is modeled by h(x) =-0.03x2+ 2x + 38 where h(x) is the height in feet, of the stream of water x feet from the fire truck. 1. What is the maximum height the water from this nozzle can reach? What is the maximum distance from the firetruck a firefighter can stand and still reach the fire?

Answers

Answer:

height: 71.33 feetreach: 82.10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be rewritten to vertex form:

  h(x) = -0.03(x² - 200/3x) +38

  h(x) = -0.03(x² -200/3x +(100/3)²) +38 +.03(100/3)²

  h(x) = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3

The vertex is (33 1/3, 71 1/3), so the maximum height the water will reach is 71 1/3 feet.

__

When h(x) = 0, the water reaches as far as it possibly can.

  0 = -0.03(x -33 1/3)² +71 1/3

  (-71 1/3)/(-0.03) = (x -33 1/3)² . . . subtract 71 1/3; divide by -0.03

  √(2377.78) = x -33.33 . . . . . . . . positive square root

  82.10 ≈ x

The maximum distance the water will reach is 82.10 feet.
