Students at a liberal arts college study for an average of 10 hours per week with a standard deviation of 2 hours per week. The distribution of their study time happens to be uni-modal, symmetric and bell shaped. Approximately 68% of students study between 8 and B hours a week. What is the value of B

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it lies between 8 hours and 12 hours in a week  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in the question it is mentioned that the distribution consist of uni-modal, symmetric and bell shaped so here the empirical formual to be used for the mean and the standard deviation

Also the 68% would be fall within one standard deviation above and below the mean

Now

1 standard deviation below the mean is

[tex]= \mu - \sigma[/tex]

= 10 - 2

= 8 hours

And, above the mean is

[tex]= \mu + \sigma[/tex]

= 10 + 2

= 12 hours

Hence, it lies between 8 hours and 12 hours in a week

For a science project, Daniel planted 51 flower seeds. Of those seeds, 12 did not grow at all. Of the seeds that did grow, 2/3 of them grew green tomatoes. How many green tomatoes grew?
a) 12
b) 8
c) 26
d) 13​

Answers

Answer:

C. 26

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Daniel planted 51 seeds.

12 seeds did not grow at all,

Therefore, the number of seeds that grew are 51-12= 39

Then, from the 39 seeds that grew, 2/3 of them are green tomatoes.

So, to find out how many green tomatoes grew, we solve

2/3 * 39= 26.

Therefore, the amount of green tomatoes are 26.

A:
A)
17 inches
B)
2.4 inches
o
2.9 inches
D)
3.1 inches

Answers

Answer:

B) 2.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of rain is 28.8 inches over 12 months. To find how much rain falls averagely in one month you need to divide the total by the amount of months. 28.8/12 = 2.4

Answers

Answer:

1001 m/s

300 [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

0.299.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]D=f(t)=t^3+1[/tex]

[tex]f(10)[/tex] means putting the value of [tex]t=10[/tex] in [tex]f(t)[/tex].

[tex]f(10) = 10^3+1=1001[/tex] [tex]m/s[/tex]

To find [tex]f'(10)[/tex], we need to find [tex]f'(t)[/tex] first.

Differentiating the equation of Distance [tex]D[/tex] w.r.to [tex]t[/tex]:

[tex]f'(t) = \dfrac{d}{dt}(t^3+1)= 3t^{3-1}+1 = 3t^2[/tex]

[tex]f'(10) = 3(10)^2=300[/tex] [tex]m/s^2[/tex]

Relative rate of change:

[tex]\dfrac{f'}{f}\ at\ t = 10 \Rightarrow \dfrac{300}{1001} \approx 0.299[/tex]

Answer:

a = 6b = 22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of smallest sides in the two triangles is ...

  smaller / larger = 4/10

To find A and B, we write proportions involving corresponding side lengths.

__

Side A in the smaller triangle is ...

  A/15 = 4/10

  A = (4/10)(15) = 6

__

The ratio of larger to smaller is the inverse of the above ratio, so ...

  B/9 = 10/4

  B = (10/4)(9) = 22.5

Find the equation of the tangent line. y=(x^2+x-2)^2 at (-1,4)​

Answers

Compute the derivative of y = (x² + x - 2)² using the chain rule:

dy/dx = 2 (x² + x - 2) d/dx [x² + x - 2]

dy/dx = 2 (x² + x - 2) (2x + 1)

Evaluate the derivative at x = -1 :

dy/dx (-1) = 2 ((-1)² + (-1) - 2) (2 (-1) + 1) = 4

This is the slope of the tangent line to the function at (-1, 4).

Use the point-slope formula to get the equation for the tangent line:

y - 4 = 4 (x - (-1))   →   y = 4x + 8

Sally is selling strawberries at the farmer’s market. She sells 5 boxes in the morning, and then sells half of the remaining boxes of strawberries by the end of the day. If Sally ended up with 9 boxes of strawberries left at the end of the day, how many boxes did she start with

Answers

Answer:

23 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

x=5+9*2

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

I did this backwards.

Since we know that Sally ended up with 9 boxes of strawberries, and sold half of the remaining strawberries, she must've had 18 boxes. Adding the 5 boxes from the beginning gets us 18+5=23

You also could've wrote an equation.

x=boxes of strawberries

x the total amount of boxes in the beginning of the day

x-5 the 5 boxes she sold

(x-5)/2 half of the remaining boxes sold

(x-5)/2=9 the amount left

The weights, in pounds, of the cats in an animal adoption center are normally distributed. If a random sample of cats is taken and the confidence interval is (7.9,12.7), what is the margin of error?
Give a numerical response for your answer. For example, if you found that the margin of error was 2, you would enter 2.

Answers

Answer:

2.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The confidence interval = ( 7.9 , 12.7 )

The Margin of error M.O.E = Interval width/2

where;

The interval width = UCL - LCL

The interval width = 12.7 - 7.9

The interval width = 4.8

The Margin of error M.O.E = 4.8/2

The Margin of error M.O.E = 2.4

The probability that a 22-year-old female in the U.S. will die within one year is approximately 0.00044. If an insurance company sells a one-year, $30,000 life insurance policy to such a person for $435, what is the company's expectation? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.)

Answers

Answer:

The value is  [tex]E(X) = \$ 421.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The probability that a 22 year  old  female in US will die within one year is    p= 0.00044

The outcome if she dies within one year is that the company losses $30,000

Generally the probability that  a 22 year  old  female in US will live more than one year is

           [tex]q = 1 -p[/tex]

=>        [tex]q = 1 -0.00044[/tex]

=>        [tex]q = 0.99956[/tex]

The outcome if she lives more than one year is that the company gains $435

Generally the  the company's expectation is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E(X) = -30000 * p + 435 * q[/tex]

The negative sign shows that the company is loosing the fund

So  

       [tex]E(X) = -30000 * 0.00044 + 435 * 0.99956[/tex]

=>    [tex]E(X) = \$ 421.6[/tex]
