Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The fox is faster. Because he is a fox.

Also because he can (assuming he doesn't fatigue or get caught by hounds in the second half of the hour) run 42 miles in 1 hour.

The rabbit runs 35 miler per hour.

Velocity = Distance/time

Fox velocity = 21 miles/0.5 hour

Dividing by 0.5 is the same as multiplying by 2, so...

Fox velocity = 42 miles/hour

A bag contains 6 RED beads, 3 BLUE beads, and 11 GREEN beads. If a single bead is picked at random, what is the probability that

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of beads = 6 + 3 + 11 = 20

We need RED or GREEN bead .

So no. of beads needed = 6 + 11 = 17

So probability of getting GREEN or RED beads = 17/20

It is known that the life of a particular auto transmission follows a normal distribution with mean 72,000 miles and standard de

scoray [572]

Answer:

a) $P(X$

$P(z$

b) $P(X>65000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{65000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{65000-72000}{12000})=P(z>-0.583)$

$P(z>-0.583)=1-P(Z$

c) $P(X>100000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{100000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{100000-72000}{12000})=P(z>2.33)$

$P(z>2.33)=1-P(Z$

Sicne this probability just represent 1% of the data we can consider this value as unusual.

d) $z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=72000 +1.28*12000=87360$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 87360.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the life of a particular auto transmission of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(72000,12000)$

Where $\mu=72000$ and $\sigma=12000$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability using excel or the normal standard table and we got:

$P(z$

Part b

$P(X>65000)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X>65000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{65000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{65000-72000}{12000})=P(z>-0.583)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and excel or the normal standard table and we got:

$P(z>-0.583)=1-P(Z$

Part c

$P(X>100000)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X>100000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{100000-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{100000-72000}{12000})=P(z>2.33)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and excel or the normal standard table and we got:

$P(z>2.33)=1-P(Z$

Sicne this probability just represent 1% of the data we can consider this value as unusual.

Part d

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.1$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.9 of the area on the left and 0.1 of the area on the right it's z=1.28. On this case P(Z<1.28)=0.9 and P(z>1.28)=0.1

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=1.28$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=72000 +1.28*12000=87360$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 90% of data from the top 10% is 87360.

The circumference of the ellipse approximate. Which equation is the result of solving the formula of the circumference for b?

Serhud [2]

Answer:

$b = \sqrt{\frac{C^{2} }{2(\pi )^{2} } - a^{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - The circumference of the ellipse approximated by $C = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} }{2} }$ where 2a and 2b are the lengths of 2 the axes of the ellipse.

To find - Which equation is the result of solving the formula of the circumference for b ?

Solution -

$C = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} }{2} }\\\frac{C}{2\pi } = \sqrt{\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} }{2} }$

Squaring Both sides, we get

$[\frac{C}{2\pi }]^{2} = [\sqrt{\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} }{2} }]^{2} \\\frac{C^{2} }{(2\pi)^{2} } = {\frac{a^{2} + b^{2} }{2} }\\2\frac{C^{2} }{4(\pi)^{2} } = {{a^{2} + b^{2} }$

$\frac{C^{2} }{2(\pi )^{2} } = a^{2} + b^{2} \\\frac{C^{2} }{2(\pi )^{2} } - a^{2} = b^{2} \\\sqrt{\frac{C^{2} }{2(\pi )^{2} } - a^{2}} = b$

∴ we get

$b = \sqrt{\frac{C^{2} }{2(\pi )^{2} } - a^{2}}$
