The mean time it takes to walk to the bus stop is 8 minutes (with a standard deviation of 2 minutes) and the mean time it takes

for the bus to get to school is 20 minutes (with a standard deviation of 4 minutes). the distributions are normal.
a. how long will it take (in minutes), on average, to get to school?
b. what is the standard deviation of the trip to school?
c. what is the probability that it will take longer than 30 minutes to get to school? due to a miscalculation, you realize it actually takes an average of 10 minutes to walk to the bus stop.
d. how long will it take (in minutes), on average, to get to school?
e. what is the standard deviation of the trip to school? f. what is the probability that it will take longer than 30 minutes to get to school

We have been given for a normal distribution the mean time it takes to walk to the bus stop is 8 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. And the mean time it takes for the bus to get to school is 20 minutes with a standard deviation of 4 minutes.

(a) Average time that it would take reach school can be obtained by adding the average times.

8+20 = 28 minutes.

(b) Standard deviation of the trip to school can be found as:

\sigma =\sqrt{2^{2}+4^{2}}=\sqrt{4+16}=\sqrt{20}=4.47

Therefore, standard deviation of the entire trip is 4.47 minutes.

(c) Let us first find z score corresponding to 30 minutes.z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }=\frac{30-28}{4.47}=0.447

We need to find the probability such that P(x>30)=P(z>0.447)=0.67

Therefore, the required probability is 0.67.

(d) If average time to walk to school is 10 minutes, then overall average time for the trip will be 10+20 = 30 minutes.

(e) Standard deviation won't change it will remain 4.47

(f) The new probability will be:

z=\frac{x-\mu }{\sigma }=\frac{30-90}{4.47}=0

P(x>30)=P(z>0)=0.5

Therefore, probability will be 0.50.

Avery’s water bottle holds 300 milliliter. Dashawn’s container holds 3/4 as much water. How many milliliters do both containers
Nady [450]

Answer:

Both containers hold 225 ml.

Step-by-step explanation:

300/4 =75 so 1/4 is equal to 75 mL


300-75=225mL


Dashawn's water bottle holds 225mL

Hope this helps! :)

Why are verticle angles congruent?

Vertical angles are equal, which is similar to saying "vertical angles are congruent."  Note:  vertical, not verticle.

Answer:

equation for line:  y = 5/3x -7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear line is y = mx + c. m is the gradient of the line, also known as slope. So, m = 5/3.

Next we need to find c. Since we know a point the line must intersect, we can sub this into our line equation to get an answer:

(2,1) x=2,y=1

1 = 5/3*2 + c

1 = 10/3 + c

1 - 10/3 = c

3/3 - 10/3 = c

-7/3 = c

The final eqaution of the line is: y = 5/3x -7/3

Sally finds a coin with a radius of 1.5 centimeters and a thickness of 0.25 cm. It has a measured mass of 18.54 grams. How can S
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Silver

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of the coin

<u>Volume of a cylinder</u>

\textsf{V}=\sf \pi r^2 h \quad\textsf{(where r is the radius and h is the height)}

Given:

  • r = 1.5 cm
  • h = 0.25 cm

Substituting given values into the formula to find the volume:

\sf \implies V=\pi (1.5)^2(0.25)

\sf \implies V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3

Find the density of the coin given it has a measured mass of 18.54 g

<u>Density formula</u>

\sf \rho=\dfrac{m}{V}

where:

  • \rho = density
  • m = mass
  • V = volume

Given:

  • m = 18.54 g
  • \sf V=0.5625 \pi \:cm^3

Substituting given values into the density formula:

\implies \sf \rho=\dfrac{18.54}{0.5625 \pi}

\implies \sf \rho=10.49149385\:g\:cm^{-3}

Given:

  • \textsf{Density of Lead}=\sf 11.3\:g\:cm^{-3}
  • \textsf{Density of Silver}=\sf 10.49\:g\:cm^{-3}

Therefore, as \sf \rho=10.49\:g\:cm^{-3} the coin is made from silver.
