Since there for "four times more," nonfiction books as fiction books, your answer will be 4x. Or any variable you like. :)

Enjoy your day!

The comprehensive strength of concrete is normally distributed with μ = 2500 psi and σ = 50 psi. Find the probability that a ran
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The probability that the diameter falls in the interval from 2499 psi to 2510 psi is 0.00798.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the random variable, X = "Comprehensive strength of concrete". We have information that X is normally distributed with a mean of 2500 psi and a standard deviation of  50 psi (or a variance of 2500 psi). In other words, X \sim N(2500, 2500).

We want to know the probability of the mean of X or \bar{X} that falls in the interval [2499;2510]. From inference theory we know that :

\bar{X} \sim N(2500, \frac{2500}{5}) \Rightarrow \bar{X} \sim N(2500,500)

Now we can find the probability as follows:

P(2499 \leq \bar{X} \leq 2510) \Rightarrow P(\frac{2499 - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq \frac{2499 - 2500}{500} ) \Rightarrow\\\Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq \frac{\bar{X} - 2500}{500} \leq 0.02 ) \Rightarrow P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 )

Where Z \sim N(0,1), then:

P(-0.002 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) \approx P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = P(Z \leq 0.02 ) - P(Z \leq 0) \\P(0 \leq Z \leq 0.02 ) = 0.50798 - 0.5 = 0.00798

Simplify the following expressions. All answers should be in standard form.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The given expression in simplified form is: 15x^2+10x

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying the expression involve reducing the number of terms to minimum and making the expressions in standard form.

This may involve addition, subtraction and multiplication of variables.

Given expression is:

5x(3x+2)

Distributing 5x will give us:

= 5.3.x.x + 5.2.x\\=15x^2+10x

Hence,

The given expression in simplified form is: 15x^2+10x

rachel jogged along a trail that was 1/4 of a mile long. She jogged along the trail 8 times. how many miles did rachel jog?
____ [38]
To solve for how many miles Rachel jogged if she jogged a 1/4 mile trail 8 times, we simply need to multiply the distance she ran each time by the amount of times she ran it.

1/4 * 8 = 2

Rachel jogged 2 miles.
Hope that helped =)
