Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

SD of mean = 2.3/\sqrt{55} = 0.418

5 hours = 300 minutes

300 minutes/55 students = 5.45 min/student

The problem asks what is the probability he needs more than an average of 5 min/student

P(XBAR < 5.0) = P((XBAR - 4.8) / 0.418) < (5.0 - 4.8) /0.418) = P(Z < 0.478) = 0.8893        

P(XBAR > 5.0) = 1 - 0.8893 = 0.1107

ben earns $9 per hour and $6 for each delivery he makes. he wants to earn more than $155 in an 8-hour workday. what is the least
Ymorist [56]
First find out how much he makes in 8 hours (9x8=72). Then subtract 72 from 155 (155-72=83). Then divide 83 by 6 (83/6=13.8333). Since 83 is not evenly divisible by 6, and since he can't deliver .8333 of a delivery, we would round up, giving us 14). Ben would need to make 14 deliveries in 8 hours to make more than $155 :) Hope this helps you :)

A baseball player hit 345 out of 1,000 balls pitched to him. What are the chances he gets a hit when he steps up to the plate?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

0.345

Step-by-step explanation:

hits/at-bats = 345/1000 = 0.345

The probability of a hit, any particular time he goes to bat. is 0.345.

The problem does not request any particular format, so 0.345 is a perfectly good answer.

In baseball, that is called a 'batting average', and is actually expressed that way - as a decimal - in a player's statistics.

On the other hand, if we did want to express the probability as a percentage, we would do this:  

0.345 * 100% = (0.345 * 100) % = 34.5 %

Hope this helps
