Answer:
The travel time to work that separates the 8% of people with the shortest travel times from the other 92% with longer travel times is 10.6 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the average travel time to work for a person living and working in Kokomo, Indiana is 17 minutes.
Suppose the standard deviation of travel time to work is 4.5 minutes and the distribution of travel time is approximately normally distributed.
Let X = the distribution of travel time
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = average travel time = 17 minutes
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 4.5 minutes
So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=17, \sigma^{2} =4.5^{2}[/tex])
Now, we have to find the travel time to work that separates the 8% of people with the shortest travel times from the other 92% with longer travel times, that means;
P(X < x) = 0.08 {where x is the required travel time}
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{x-17}{4.5}[/tex] ) = 0.08
P(Z < [tex]\frac{x-17}{4.5}[/tex] ) = 0.08
In the z table the critical value of z that represents the below 8% of the area is given by -1.43, that is;
[tex]\frac{x-17}{4.5}=-1.43[/tex]
[tex]{x-17}{}=-1.43\times 4.5[/tex]
x = 17 - 6.435 = 10.6 minutes
Hence, the travel time to work that separates the 8% of people with the shortest travel times from the other 92% with longer travel times is 10.6 minutes.

Answer:
(d, left, right) ⇒ (d, di, -di)
Step-by-step explanation:
In the complex plane, successive left turns make this your sequence of facing directions: 1, i, -1, -i, 1. Effectively, your facing direction is multiplied by i.
Successive right turns make this your sequence of facing directions: 1, -i, -1, i, 1. Effectively, your facing direction is multiplied by -i.
Your table can be filled as follows:
(initial d, left turn, right turn)
(-1, -i, i)

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have:
[tex]\frac{x^{\frac{2}{3}}}{y^{\frac{-3}{4}}}[/tex]
First, we recall that we can switch an exponent from the denominator to the numerator if we multiply the exponent by -1 and vice versa. Therefore:
[tex]=x^{\frac{2}{3}}}\cdot {y^{\frac{3}{4}}[/tex]
Now, use the following property:
[tex]a^{x/n}=\sqrt[n]{a^x}[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]x^{\frac{2}{3}}=\sqrt[3]{x^2}[/tex]
And:
[tex]y^{\frac{3}{4}}=\sqrt[4]{y^3}[/tex]
And so together:
[tex]=x^{\frac{2}{3}}}\cdot {y^{\frac{3}{4}}\\=\sqrt[3]{x^2}\cdot\sqrt[4]{y^3}[/tex]
Our answer is B :)

B

Find the standard form of the equation of the ellipse with the given characteristics. Center: (1, 2); vertex: (−7, 2); minor axis of length 12
Answer:
(x-1)²/64 + (y-2)²/ 144= 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
The standard form for an ellipse is
(x-h)/a² + ( y-k)/b²=1
So
h, k
is the centre of the ellipse, and
a is the distance from the centre to the vertices and c is the distance from the centre to the foci.
b is the minor axis.
So b² + c²= a²
In this example
a= -7-1= -8

How to calculate the probability of an event?Suppose that there are finite elementary events in the sample space of the considered experiment, and all are equally likely.
Then, suppose we want to find the probability of an event E.
Then, its probability is given as
[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text{Number of total cases}} = \dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}[/tex]
where favorable cases are those elementary events who belong to E, and total cases are the size of the sample space.
How to calculate the expectation of a discrete random variable?Expectation can be taken as a weighted mean, weights being the probability of occurrence of that specific observation.
Thus, if the random variable is X, and its probability mass function is given : f(x) = P(X = x), then we have:
[tex]E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n( f(x_i) \times x_i)[/tex]
(n is number of values X takes)
For the game to be fair, the expected number of points that one can loose should be equal to the expected number of points one can gain.
Now, probability of getting any specific colored marble = 1/5 = 0.2 (since there is one way to choose a specified colored marble, but there are 5 ways to choose a single (no color specified) marble out of 5 marbles.
The game would be fair if there is equal chance of winning and loosing.
Let we have:
Then we need E(X) = expectation of X = 0 (since the negative points of loosing would equate to positive point of winning, thus, making the expected overall score 0, thus, making game fair.
Values of X = -2(if lost, or say chose any four colored marble except blue marble), or p(if won, or say chose blue colored marble)
P(X = -2) = P(choosing non-blue marble) = 4/5P(X = p) = P(choosing blue marble) = 1/5(its because choosing one marble from 5 marbles can be done in 5 ways, so n(S) = 5, and choosing 1 blue marble out of 5 different colored marble can be done in 1 way, and choosing 1 non-blue marble out of 5 different colored marble can be done in 4 ways)
Thus, we get:
[tex]E(X) = -2 \times P(X = -2) + p \times P(X = p)\\E(X) = -2 \times 4/5 + p \times 1/5\\0 = -8/5 + p/5\\0 = -8 + p\\p = 8[/tex]
Thus, the points the blue marble should be worth for the game to be fair is given by: Option C: 8

Sum of the areas of two squares is 260 m². If the difference of their perimeters is 24 m then find the sides of the two squares.
Answer: x=14 and y=8
*Note: x and y are used as variables to solve the problem. Just know that the sides for one square is 14 and the other, 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we can use system of equations to solve. Let's use x for one side of a square and y for the other.
Equation 1:
x²+y²=260
We get this equation from the sum of the areas. The x² and y² are from the area. Since all sides of a square are equal lengths, we can directly square them.
Equation 2:
4x-4y=24
This equation comes from the difference of the perimeters. 4x and 4y are perimeters because perimeter is adding all sides of the square together. There are 4 sides to a square, therefore we get 4x and 4y.
We can use substitution method to solve.
4x-4y=24 [add both sides by 4y]
4x=24+4y [divide both sides by 4]
x=6+y
Now that we have x, we can plug it into any equation and solve.
(6+y)²+y²=260 [expand]
y²+12y+36+y²=260 [combine like terms]
2y²+12y+36=260 [subtract both sides by 36]
2y²+12y=224 [factor out 2]
2(y²+6y)=224 [divide both sides by 2]
y²+6y=112 [subtract both sides by 112]
y²+6y-112=0 [factor equation]
(y-8)(y+14)=0 [set each factor equal to 0 to solve]
y=8 and y=-14
We know that y=8 because (y+14)=0 gives you y=-14, but a length or area can NEVER be negative, only positive.
Now that we have y, we can plug it into any equation to find x.
4x-4(8)=24 [combine like terms]
4x-32=24 [add both sides by 32]
4x=56 [divide both sides by 4]
x=14
Now, we have x and y. x=14 and y=8.

A couple wants to install hardwood into their bedroom. The wood is bought in 0.5×5 square foot pieces. They have 422 square feet of floor on which to install the hardwood. How many 0.5×5 sections must be purchased?
124 sections
25 sections
169 sections
84 sections
Answer:
169 sections
Step-by-step explanation:
A couple wants to install hardwood into their bedroom. The wood is bought in 0.5×5 square foot pieces
The area of the 0.5×5 square foot pieces
Area= 0.5*5.
Area= 2.5 square feet
They have 422 square feet of floor on which to install the hardwood.
Number of sections to be purchased
= 422/2.5
= 168.8 sections
Approximately= 169 sections

A. 28 of the cats in the distribution are female
B. In the distribution of cats, 8 are female
C. 28 of the dogs in the distribution are female
D. 28 animals in the distribution are female cats and dogs
The correct answer is A. 28 of the cats in the distribution are female
Explanation:
The table presented shows the number of female/male dogs and cats, as well as the total of animals in each category. Moreover, in this, the columns show the type of animal (dog or cat), while the rows show its gender (female/male). Also, these categories intersect to show the frequency. For example, number 32, which is the intersection of the categories Dog and Male shows there are 32 male dogs. In this context, if the number 28 joints the categories female and cat, this means 28 of the total animals are female cats and out of the total cats 28 are female. This makes option A the correct answer.
