According to AccuData Media Research, 36% of televisions within the Chicago city limits are tuned to "Eyewitness News" at 5:00 p

m on Sunday nights. At 5:00 pm on a given Sunday, 2500 such televisions are randomly selected and checked to determine what is being watched.
a. Find the mean and standard deviation for the number of televisions tuned to "Eyewitness News."
b. Using the range rule of thumb, would it be unusual to find that 840 of the 2500 televisions are tuned to "Eyewitness News"?
c. Using the range rule of thumb, would it be unusual to find that 945 of the 2500 televisions are tuned to "Eyewitness News"?

Answer:

a) Mean: 900

Standard deviation: 24

b) Very unusual

c) Unusual

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a population proportion p=0.36 and we are taking a sample of size n=2500. This can be modeled as binomial sampling.

For this sampling distribution, we have a mean and STD that can be calculated as:

\mu_s=n\cdot p=2500\cdot0.36=900\\\\\sigma_s=\sqrt{n\cdot p(1-p)}=\sqrt{2500*0.36*0.64)}=\sqrt{576}=24

b) A value of 840 is a very unusual as is more than 2 standard deviations from the expected value of 900 (more exactly, at 2.5 standard deviations). Approximately 2% of the values are below 2 standars deviations from the mean.

Having 840 or less televisions tuned to "Eyewitness News" would have a probability of P=0.00621.

c) A value of 945 would be also unusual, but not as unusual as 840, as is between 1 and 2 standard deviation from the expected value.

Having 945 or more televisions tuned to "Eyewitness News" would have a probability of P=0.0304.

A kite flying in the air has a 10-ft line attached to it. It’s line is pulled taut and casts a 7-ft shadow. Find the height of t
jasenka [17]

Answer:

If the kite has an 11 ft line attached to it and it casts an 8 feet shadow, we will have a rectangle triangle (see picture below).

To find the height x of the kite, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem.

x² = 11² - 8²

x² = 121 - 64

x² = 57

x =√57 Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle shown, which shows the correct order of the side lengths from smallest to largest.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Not sure if there are options, but the order of side lengths from smallest to largest is <u>j, k, l</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a bad explanation (sorry):

Side length order will be the same order of angle orders. By that, I mean the since angle C has the smallest angle, the side length across from it will also be the smallest. Since angle B is the biggest angle, side L will be the biggest length. This leaves angle A (and side k) in the middle.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that bisects the angle formed by BA and BC
slega [8]

Given:

Angled formed by ray BA and ray BC is 90 degrees.

To find:

The equation of line that bisects the angle formed by ray BA and ray BC.

Solution:

If a line bisects the angle formed by ray BA and ray BC, then it must be passes through point B and makes angles of 45 degrees with ray BA and ray BC.

It is possible if the line passes though point B(-1,3) and other point (-2,4).

Equation of line is

y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

y-3=\dfrac{4-3}{-2-(-1)}(x-(-1))

y-3=\dfrac{1}{-1}(x+1)

y-3=-x-1

Add 3 on both sides.

y=-x-1+3

y=-x+2

Therefore, the required equation of line is y=-x+2.
