The z-score for 5 minutes is found from:
z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

z=\frac{5-4}{0.6}=1.667
Reference to a normal distribution table shows that the cumulative probability for a z-score of 1.667 is around 0.9522.
Therefore the probability that a conversation lasts for longer than 5 minutes is:
1 - 0.9522 = 0.048 to 3 d.p.

What is the equation in slope intercept form of s like that passes through the points (3,2) and (-5,-8)
noname [10]

The slope of the line =  (2- -8) / (3 - - 5) = 10 / 8

= 5/4

y -  y1 = m(x - x1)  where m = slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line so here we have:-

y - 2 = 5/4(x - 3)

y = 5/4x  - 15/4 + 2

y = 5/4 x - 7/4  is the answer

8. Find the value of k, if (1-1) is a solution of the equation 3x-ky =8. Also, find the coordinates of
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

k = 5 and (6,2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since (1,-1) is a solution of the equation 3x - ky = 8, so the point (1,-1) will satisfy the equation above.

Hence, putting x = 1 and y = -1 in the equation will give left-hand side = right-hand side.

So, 3(1) - k(-1) = 8

⇒ 3 + k = 8

⇒ k = 5 (Answer)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line is 3x - 5y = 8 ....... (1)

Now, putting x = 6 , then from equation (1) we get y = 2

Therefore, (6,2) is also a point on the graph of equation (1). (Answer)

Tom's stockbroker offers an investment that is compounded continuously at an annual interest rate of 3.7%. If Tom wants a return
Anettt [7]

Answer:

It'll take 38.3 years to obtain the desired return of $25,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve a continuosly coumponded interest question we need to apply the correct formula that is given bellow:

M = C*e^(r*t)

Where M is the final value, C is the initial value, r is the interest rate and t is the time at which the money was applied. Since he wants an return of $25,000 his final value must be the sum of the initial value with the desired return. So we have:

(25000 + 8000) = 8000*e^(0.037*t)

33000 = 8000*e^(0.037*t)

e^(0.037*t) = 33000/8000

e^(0.037*t) = 4.125

ln[e^(0.037*t)] = ln(4.125)

t = ln(4.125)/(0.037)

t = 1.4171/0.037 = 38.2991

t = 38.3 years

Item 4 In a circle with a radius of 36.9 m, an arc is intercepted by a central angle of 8π 5 radians. What is the arc length? Us
leva [86]

Answer:

The arc length is 185.39 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length is calculated by the following expression:

\Delta s = \Delta \theta \cdot r

Where:

r - Radius, measured in meters.

\Delta \theta - Central angle, measured in radians.

If r = 36.9\,m and \Delta \theta =\frac{8}{5}\pi\, rad, the arc length, measured in meters, is:

\Delta s = \frac{8}{5}\pi\cdot (36.9\,m)

\Delta s = \frac{8}{5}\cdot (3.14)\cdot (36.9\,m)

\Delta s \approx 185.386\,m

\Delta s \approx 185.39\,m

The arc length is 185.39 meters.
