The long-distance calls made by the employees of a company are normally distributed with a mean of 6.3 minutes and a standard de

Sergio [31]

To solve this problem, we use the formula:

z = (x – u) / s

where z is the z score value which can be obtained from the tables, x is the sample value, u is the mean = 6.3 min, and s is the std dev = 2.2 min

at P value = 0.90, the z = 1.28, finding for x:

x = z s + u

x = 1.28 * 2.2 + 6.3

x = 9.116

at P value = 1.0, the z = 3.49, finding for x:

x = z s + u

x = 3.49 * 2.2 + 6.3

x = 13.978 ~ 14

Therefore the longest 10% calls last about 9.1 minutes to 14 minutes

Four points partition the directed line segment from A to B. • Point P partitions the directed line segment from A to B into a 3

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

S is closest to B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a directed line segment from point A to B.

Point P divides the line A to B in a ratio 3:4.

Point Q divides the line A to B in a ratio 4:3.

Point R divides the line A to B in a ratio 2:5.

Point S divides the line A to B in a ratio 5:2.

To find:

The point which is closest to the point B.

Solution:

Here, to find the point closest to B we need to find the distances PB, QB, RB and SB.

We can see the sum of ratio 3:4, 4:3, 2:5 and 5:2 is 7.

Let the distance between A and B be 7 units.

Now, the distances can be found easily.

$PB = \dfrac{4}{7}\times 7 = 4\ units$

$QB = \dfrac{3}{7}\times 7 = 3\ units$

$RB = \dfrac{5}{7}\times 7 = 5\ units$

$SB = \dfrac{2}{7}\times 7 = 2\ units$

The point which has the minimum distance from point B, will be nearest to B.

We can clearly observe that SB is the minimum distance.

Therefore, S is closest to B.
