The port of South Louisiana, located along 54 miles of the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is the largest

jeka94

Answer:

(a) The probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week is 0.7291.

(b) The probability that the port handles 3 or more million tons of cargo per week is 0.9664.

(d) The number of tons of cargo per week that will require the port to extend its operating hours is 5.35 million tons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = amount of cargo the port handles per week.

The random variable X is Normally distributed with parameters,

μ = 4.5 million

σ = 0.82 million

(a)

Compute the probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week as follows:

$P(X$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week is 0.7291.

(b)

Compute the probability that the port handles 3 or more million tons of cargo per week as follows:

$P(X\geq 3)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\geq \frac{3-4.5}{0.82})\\=P(Z>-1.83)\\=P(Z$

*Use a z-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that the port handles 3 or more million tons of cargo per week is 0.9664.

(c)

Compute the probability that the port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week as follows:

$P(3$

Thus, the probability that the port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week is 0.2373.

(d)

It is provided that P (X < x) = 0.85.

Then, P (Z < z) = 0.85.

The value of z for this probability is:

z = 1.04.

Compute the value of x as follows:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\1.04=\frac{x-4.5}{0.82}\\x=4.5-+1.04\times 0.82)\\x=5.3528\approx5.35$

Thus, the number of tons of cargo per week that will require the port to extend its operating hours is 5.35 million tons.

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.1 in/s. At

kow [346]

Given:

$\dfrac{dr}{dt}=1.4\text{ in/s}$

$\dfrac{dh}{dt}=-2.1\text{ in/s}$

To find:

The rate of change in volume at $r=120\text{ in. and }175\text{ in.}$

Solution:

We know that, volume of a cone is

$V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

Differentiate with respect to t.

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi\times \left[(r^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}) + h(2r\dfrac{dr}{dt})\right]$

Substitute the given values.

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times \left[(120)^2(-2.1) +175(2)(120)(1.4)\right]$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{22}{21}\times \left[-30240+58800\right]$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{22}{21}\times 28560$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=29920$

Therefore, the volume of decreased by 29920 cubic inches per second.

What is 280 million in scientific notation

Phantasy [73]

The rule of scientifinc notation is that we can use number between 0 and 10, so here we can use 2.8. Lets do this
280 000 000 = 2.8 * 100 * 1 000 000
Now we can just multiply 2.8 by 10 to the power of number of 0 reapeted
So $2.8*10^8$ - its the result

The graph shows the number of books Rahul read, y, compared with the number of books Maggie read, x, over the summer.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

D. y=2x(4×2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=8 and x=4 and they are asking about the books that Maggie read how they the books re equal to the ones Rahul read. so y will be equal to x times 2 which is also x+x.
