He would have to walk 175/3 minutes to burn off the ice cream.  If you divide this by 20, you could find how many miles he would need to walk.  175/3/20 Which comes to roughly 2.9.  If you round up, it is 3 miles.  Please mark Brainliest!!!

Answer : A person walk to burn off a scoop of ice cream is, 3.0 miles

Step-by-step explanation :

First we have to determine the time taken to burn calories.

As, 3 calories burn in 1 minutes

So, 175 calories burn in \frac{175\text{ calories}}{3\text{ calories}}\times 1\text{ minutes}=58.33\text{ minutes}

Now we have to determine the distance traveled by a person.

As, the distance traveled in 20 minutes = 1 mile

So. the distance traveled in 58.33 minutes = \frac{58.33\text{ minutes}}{20\text{ minutes}}\times 1\text{ mile}=2.916\text{ mile}\approx 3.0\text{ mile}

Thus, a person walk to burn off a scoop of ice cream is, 3.0 miles.

A machine fills containers with a particular product. Assume the filling weights are normally distributed with a variance of 0.1
Ghella [55]

Answer:

z=-0.674

And if we solve for \mu we got

\mu=12 +0.674*0.4=12.270

So then the mean is 'mu = 12.270 for this case.

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".  

Solution to the problem

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

X \sim N(\mu,\sqrt{0.16}= 0.4)  

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

P(X>12)=0.85   (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 0.25 of the area on the left and 0.85 of the area on the right it's z=-0.674. On this case P(Z<-0.674)=0.25 and P(z>-0.674)=0.85

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=-0.674

And if we solve for \mu we got

\mu=12 +0.674*0.4=12.270

So then the mean is 'mu = 12.270 for this case.

1. De una encuesta realizada a 120 personas sobre el consumo de albaricoque, banana y coco se obtuvieron el siguiente resultado.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

El número de personas que consumen dos productos es 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

El primer paso para resolver el problema es realizar los gráficos de los eventos (agregaré como archivo adjunto el gráfico del ejercicio).

En el gráfico podemos ver 7 regiones :

A : Personas que consumen sólo albaricoque.

B : Personas que consumen sólo banana.

C : Personas que consumen sólo coco.

D : Personas que consumen sólo albaricoque y coco.

E : Personas que consumen las tres frutas (albaricoque, banana y coco).

F : Personas que consumen sólo banana y coco.

G : Personas que consumen sólo albaricoque y banana.

Ahora, debemos escribir las ecuaciones que nos brinda el ejercicio :

La encuesta se realizó a 120 personas y se sabe que todas las personas consumen un producto ⇒

A+B+C+D+E+F+G=120 (I)

''El número de personas que consumen sólo albaricoque y coco es la mitad de las que consumen sólo albaricoque''  ⇒

D=\frac{A}{2} (II)

''El número de personas que consumen sólo banana es el doble de las personas que consumen sólo albaricoque y banana más sólo banana y coco'' ⇒

B=2.(G+F) (III)

Finalmente : ''El número de personas que consumen sólo coco más los que consumen los tres productos es 30''  ⇒

C+E=30 (IV)

Finalmente obtenemos el siguiente sistema de ecuaciones :

A+B+C+D+E+F+G=120\\D=\frac{A}{2}\\B=2.(G+F)\\C+E=30

El número de personas que consumen dos productos es :

D+F+G

Entonces, resolvemos escribiendo la primera ecuación conmutando los términos :

A+B+C+E+D+F+G=120 (V)

De (II) se obtiene :

2D=A (VI)

Usamos (VI), (III) y (IV) en (V) ⇒

2D+2(G+F)+30+D+F+G=120  ⇒

2D+2G+2F+30+D+F+G=120

3D+3F+3G=90

Dividiendo esta última ecuación por ''3'' obtenemos :

D+F+G=30

Que es el número de personas que consumen dos productos.

Es muy conveniente seguir el desarrollo del ejercicio mirando el gráfico que adjunto.

A worker can assemble 3 shelf units each hour. During the fifth hour of the shift, there were 115 shelf units in the warehouse.
nasty-shy [4]
A worker can assemble 3 shelf units each hr. During the 5th hr...so the shift has been going on for 5 hrs...at 3 units per hr = (3 * 5) = 15 units assembled during the shift....and if there was 115 units in the warehouse, then that means before the shift, there were (115 - 15) = 100 units assembled <=
