A team has won 60 percent of the 20 games it has playes so far this season. If the team plays a total of 50 games all season and

wins 80 percent of the remaining games, then the percent of games it won for the entire season will be
1. 66%
2. 69%
3. 70%
4. 72%
5. 74% ...?

Answer: Option '4' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of games =50

Firstly, he played 20 games.

Percentage of games they won = 60%

Number of games they won is given by

$\dfrac{60}{100}\times 20\\\\=0.6\times 20\\\\=12$

Remaining number of games = 50-20=30

Percentage of remaining games they won = 80%

So, number of games they won is given by

$\dfrac{80}{100}\times 30\\\\=0.8\times 30\\\\=24$

So, total number of games they won is given by

12+24 = 36

So, Percentage of games they won for the entire season will be

$\dfrac{36}{50}\times 100\\\\=36\times 2\\\\=72\%$

Hence, Option '4' is correct.

So far team has won =(60/100)*20 = 12 gamesTotal games played in season =5080 percent of the remaining games won = 80 percent of (50-20) = (80/100)*30 = 24 games.Total game won this season = 36So, percent games won in the entire season = (36/50)*100=72%Answer (4)

Each day a manufacturing plant receives a large shipment of drums of Chemical ZX-900. These drums are supposed to have a mean fi

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the average fill for the 100 drums is between 49.88 and 50.12 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Suppose the mean fill for the shipment is actually 50 gallons. Standard deviation of 0.6 gallons.

This means that $\mu = 50, \sigma = 0.6$

Sample of 100:

This means that $n = 100, s = \frac{0.6}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.06$

What is the probability that the average fill for the 100 drums is between 49.88 and 50.12 gallons?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 50.12 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 49.88. So

X = 50.12

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{50.12 - 50}{0.06}$

$Z = 2$

$Z = 2$ has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 49.88

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{49.88 - 50}{0.06}$

$Z = -2$

$Z = -2$ has a pvalue of 0.0228

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544

0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the average fill for the 100 drums is between 49.88 and 50.12 gallons.

Find the area of the triangle

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Part 1) $P=204\ yd$

Part 2) $A=1,325\ yd^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

The perimeter of triangle is equal to the sum of its length sides

so

$P=54+97+53=204\ yd$

Part 2)

we know that

The area of triangle is given by the formula

$A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$

we have

$b=53\ yd\\h=50\ yd$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2}(53)(50)=1,325\ yd^2$
