Rate of burn(scented):1/8inch in 1/4h
=4(1/8)inch in 1h=1/2inch in 1h

Rate of burn(unscented):1/9inch in 1/3h=3(1/9)inch in 1h=1/3inch in 1h

The scented candle burns more in one hour.

1/2inch-1/3inch=1/6inch

The scented candle burns 1/6inch more per hour

A simple random sample of size n=14 is obtained from a population with μ=64 and σ=19.
madam [21]

Answer:

a) A. The population must be normally distributed

b) P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967

c) P(X  ≥  65.6) = 0.3745

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The population is normally distributed having a mean (\mu_x) = 64  and a standard deviation (\sigma_x) = \frac{19}{\sqrt{14} }

b) P(X < 68.2)

First me need to calculate the z score (z). This is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu_x}{\sigma_x} but μ=64 and σ=19 and n=14,  \mu_x=\mu=64 and \sigma_x=\frac{ \sigma}{\sqrt{n} }=\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} }

Therefore: z=\frac{68.2-64}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} } }=0.83

From z table, P(X < 68.2) = P(z < 0.83) = 0.7967

P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967

c) P(X  ≥  65.6)

First me need to calculate the z score (z). This is given by the equation:

z=\frac{x-\mu_x}{\sigma_x}

Therefore: z=\frac{65.6-64}{\frac{19}{\sqrt{14} } }=0.32

From z table,  P(X  ≥  65.6) =  P(z  ≥  0.32) = 1 -  P(z  <  0.32) = 1 - 0.6255 = 0.3745

P(X  ≥  65.6) = 0.3745

P(X < 68.2) = 0.7967

Please help, I need it due today and urgently! Please give a small explanation and an answer
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

0=0 1=1   <u> 6<8</u>

Since 6 < 8  0.16 < 0.18

so, the hummingbird weighs more than a nickel

Step-by-step explanation:

6 is less than 8 so therefore .16 is less than .18. The nickel weighs .18 and .16 is less than that.

Help on both of these pls<br> also sry the lighting is weird
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 angles form a right angle, thus their sum is 90°, hence

4x + 7 + 35 = 90

4x + 42 = 90 ( subtract 42 from both sides )

4x = 48 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 12

-----------------------------------------------------

To calculate the slope m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 4) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{4-0}{1-0} = \frac{4}{1} = 4

A woman spent two thirds of her money she lost two thirds the remainder and then had $4 left how much money did she start with
Lisa [10]

Answer

Find out  how much money did she start with.

To proof

let us assume that the money she had be x.

As given

woman spent two thirds of her money

Money\ spent = \frac{2x}{3}

Money she had after spent two thirds of her money  = Total money - money spent

= x - \frac{2x}{3}

= \frac{1x}{3}

As given she lost two thirds the remainder

=\frac{2}{3}\times ( money\ she\ had\ after\ spending\ two\ thirds\ of\ her\ money)

= \frac{2}{3} \times\frac{1x}{3}

we get

=\frac{2x}{9}

Money she had after lost two thirds the remainder = Money she had after spent two thirds of her money - she lost two thirds the remainder

= \frac{1x}{3} - \frac{2x}{9}

= \frac{1x}{9}

As given

she had $4 left

thus

\frac{1x}{9} = 4

x = $36

she start with $36.

Hence proved
