Times for a surgical procedure are normally distributed. There are two methods. Method A has a mean of 33 minutes and a standard

deviation of 8 minutes, while method B has a mean of 37 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.0 minutes. (a) Which procedure is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes?

Answer:

Method A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For solving this question we need to find out the z-scores for both methods,

Since, the z-score formula is,

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

Where, \mu is mean,

\sigma is standard deviation,

Given,

For method A,

\mu = 33

\sigma=8

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_1=\frac{34-33}{8}=0.125

While, for method B,

\mu = 37

\sigma = 4

Thus, the z score for 34 is,

z_2=\frac{34-37}{4}=-0.75,

Since, z_1 > z_2

Hence, method A is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 34 minutes.

Mason takes his pulse. He counts 48 beats in 2/3 minute. Mason goes on a bike ride and takes his pulse again. Now he counts 81 b
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Therefore,  beats per minute did  increase for 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

48: 2/3=x:1

48=2/3 × x

x=3/2×48

x=72

81:3/4=x:1

81=x×3/4

x=4/3×81

x=108

Therefore,  beats per minute did  increase for 36.

Given radical a and radical b are in simplest radical form and radical a timed radical b equals c radical d and c radical d is i
lawyer [7]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since sqrt(a) and sqrt(b) are in simplest radical form, that means a and b have no perfect square factors. When sqrt(a) and sqrt(b) are multiplied giving c * sqrt(d), the fact that c came out of the root means that there was c^2 inside the product sqrt(ab). This means that a and b have at least one common factor.

ab = c^2d

Example:

Let a = 6 and let b = 10.

sqrt(6) and sqrt(10) are in simplest radical form.

Now we multiply the radicals.

sqrt(a) * sqrt(b) = sqrt(6) * sqrt(10) = sqrt(60) = sqrt(4 * 15) = 2sqrt(15)

We have c = 2 and d = 15.

ab = c^2d

6 * 10 = 2^2 * 15

60 = 60

Our relationship between a, b and c, d works.

Which of the following show an element of the sample space for flipping 2 coins? (H= Heads, T= Tails) Check all that apply
Leni [432]

Answer:

All options

Step-by-step explanation:

If two coins are flipped, there are following possibilities

1. Both coins show heads

2. First coin shows heads and second shows tails

3. First coin shows tails and second shows heads

4. Both coins show tails

Let H denote heads and T denote tails

Then the sample space can be translated from the above events as:

Sample  Space for Flipping Two Coins = {HH, HT, TH, TT}

which means that all the options are correct ..
