Answer:
15.86%
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Percent of area between the mean and 0.20 standard deviations from the mean:
pvalue of Z = 0.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = -0.2
Z = 0.2 has a pvalue of 0.5793
Z = -0.2 has a pvalue of 0.4207
0.5793 - 0.4207 = 0.1586
So this percentage is 15.86%
Answer:
The final answer is 2/15 or 0.133
Step-by-step explanation:
The US States that start with an "N" are:
- Nebraska
- Nevada
- New Hampshire
- New Jersey
- New Mexico
- New York
- North Carolina
- North Dakota
The probability of selecting a state that starts with an N is 8/50
The probability of rolling at least a two is 5/6.
If we multiply the two probabilities together, we get 2/15.
Answer:3/4
Step-by-step explanation:60 minutes divided by 4 is 15. 3 15 minute increments is 45. 45 minutes is 3 /4 of an hour.
Answer:
Explanation:
You can build a two-way relative frequency table to represent the data:
These are the columns and rows:
Car No car Total
Boys
Girl
Total
Fill the table
- <em>30% of the children at the school are boys</em>
Car No car Total
Boys 30%
Girl
Total
- <em>60% of the boys at the school arrive by car</em>
That is 60% of 30% = 0.6 × 30% = 18%
Car No car Total
Boys 18% 30%
Girls
Total
By difference you can fill the cell of Boy and No car: 30% - 18% = 12%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl
Total
Also, you know that the grand total is 100%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl
Total 100%
By difference you fill the total of Girls: 100% - 30% = 70%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 70%
Total 100%
- <em>80% of the girls at the school arrive by car</em>
That is 80% of 70% = 0.8 × 70% = 56%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 56% 70%
Total 100%
Now you can finish filling in the whole table calculating the differences:
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 56% 14% 70%
Total 74% 26% 100%
Having the table completed you can find any relevant probability.
The probability that a child chosen at random from the school arrives by car is the total of the column Car: 74%.
That is because that column represents the percent of boys and girls that that arrive by car: 18% of the boys, 56% of the girls, and 74% of all the the children.
