The correct answer is:

False.

Explanation:

We cannot be sure that all samples from a normal distribution will also be normally distributed.

The Central Limit Theorem states that the sampling distribution of the sample means approaches a normal distribution as the sample size gets larger, especially for sample sizes over 30. Basically as you take more samples from a given distribution, especially large samples, the graph of the sample means will look more like a normal distribution.

However, this does not state that all samples of a normal distribution will also be normal.

Find the measure of the the sides of DEF then classify it by it sides. D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Part a) The measure of the sides of triangle DEF are

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

Part b) Is a scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have the coordinates

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

step 1

Find the length side DE

D(8,-6) E(-1,-3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-3+6)^{2}+(-1-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(9)^{2}}$

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 2

Find the length side EF

E(-1,-3) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5+3)^{2}+(-2+1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-1)^{2}}$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

step 3

Find the length side DF

D(8,-6) F(-2,5)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(5+6)^{2}+(-2-8)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(11)^{2}+(-10)^{2}}$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

step 4

Classify the triangle by the measure of its sides

we have

$d_D_E=\sqrt{90}\ units$

$d_E_F=\sqrt{65}\ units$

$d_D_F=\sqrt{221}\ units$

Is a scalene triangle, because is a triangle in which all three sides have different lengths.

he number of surface flaws in plastic panels used in the interior of automobiles has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 0.02

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

a) 98.01%

b) 13.53\%

c) 27.06%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a car has 10 square feet of plastic panel, the expected value (mean) for a car to have one flaw is 10*0.02 = 0.2

If we call P(k) the probability that a car has k flaws then, as P follows a Poisson distribution with mean 0.2,

$P(k)= \frac{0.2^ke^{-0.2}}{k!}$

In this case, we are looking for P(0)

$P(0)= \frac{0.2^0e^{-0.2}}{0!}=e^{-0.2}=0.9801=98.01\%$

So, the probability that a car has no flaws is 98.01%

Ten cars have 100 square feet of plastic panel, so now the mean is 100*0.02 = 2 flaws every ten cars.

Now P(k) is the probability that 10 cars have k flaws and

$P(k)= \frac{2^ke^{-2}}{k!}$

and

$P(0)= \frac{2^0e^{-2}}{0!}=0.1353=13.53\%$

And the probability that 10 cars have no flaws is 13.53%

Here, we are looking for P(1) with P defined as in b)

$P(1)= \frac{2^1e^{-2}}{1!}=2e^{-2}=0.2706=27.06\%$

Hence, the probability that at most one car has no flaws is 27.06%
