Answer:

28.57% probability that the speed of a car is between 17 and 23 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X between c and d is given by the following formula:

P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}

14 to 35 mph and is uniformly distributed.

This means that a = 14, b = 35

What is the probability that the speed of a car is between 17 and 23 mph?

P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}

P(17 \leq X \leq 23) = \frac{23 - 17}{35 - 14} = 0.2857

28.57% probability that the speed of a car is between 17 and 23 mph

For f(x) = 4x +1 and g(x) = x2 - 5, find (g/f) (x).
Softa [21]

Answer:

\left(g/f\right)\left(x\right)=\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{16}-\frac{79}{16\left(4x+1\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=4x+1

g\left(x\right)=x^2\:-\:5

As

(g/f)(x) = g(x) / f(x)

            =\:\frac{x^2\:-\:5}{4x+1}\:\:\:\:\:\:

            =\frac{x}{4}+\frac{-\frac{x}{4}-5}{4x+1}

              =\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{16}+\frac{-\frac{79}{16}}{4x+1}

               =\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{16}-\frac{79}{16\left(4x+1\right)}

Therefore,

\left(g/f\right)\left(x\right)=\frac{x}{4}-\frac{1}{16}-\frac{79}{16\left(4x+1\right)}
