To solve for the probability proportion, we make use of the z statistic. The procedure to do is to calculate for the z value and using the standard probability tables, we can look up for the p value. The formula for z score is:

z =(x – μ) / (σ / sqrt(n))

where,

x = sample score = 11

μ = sample mean= 10

σ = standard deviation = 2

n = sample size

 

Calculating for the z and p value when n = 5:

z =(11 – 10) / (2 / sqrt(5))

z = 1.12

Using the tables, p(5) = 0.8686

 

Calculating for the z and p value when n = 6:

z =(11 – 10) / (2 / sqrt(6))

z = 1.22

Using the tables, p(6) = 0.8888

 

If both days should be occuring, therefore the total probability that each day is at most 11 min is:

p total = p(5) * p(6)

p total = 0.8686 * 0.8888

p total = 0.772

sergiy2304 [10]
If the scholarship pays 75% of her classes cost, that means that she has to pay the 25% remaining of the classes cost so if we calculate it as follow:

0.25 * $14,000 = $3,500 
 =================================================================
Another method to understand:
if the scolarship pays 75% of her classes that will be 
0.75* $14,000 = $10,500

now she has to pay the remaining of the total cost and that will be 
$14,000 - $10,500 = $3,500.

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

  • sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse
  • cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse
  • tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is <u>opposite</u> angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the <u>hypotenuse</u> because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}

  • θ= 54
  • opposite= x
  • hypotenuse = 2.3

sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3

2.3* sin (54)=x

2.3*0.8090169944=x

1.860739087 =x

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

1.9 \approx x

x is approximately <u>1.9</u>
