Answer:

a. 8.66 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the flight times are uniformly distributed, the standard deviation can be calculated as follows:

$\sigma = \frac{b-a}{\sqrt{12}}$

Where '<em>b' </em>is the maximum flight time (150 minutes) and '<em>a' </em>is the minimum flight time (120 minutes):

$\sigma = \frac{150-120}{\sqrt{12}}\\\sigma = 8.66\ minutes$

The distribution's standard deviation is 8.66 minutes.

Answer:

(a) We will form an equation of line from the points given (6,10) and (2,15)

Using: $y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\cdot (x-x_1)$

On substituting the values in the formula above we will get the required equation of line.

$y-10=\frac{15-10}{2-6}\cdot (x-6)$

$\Rightarrow y-10=\frac{5}{-4}\cdot (x-6)$

On simplification we will get:

$y=\frac{1}{4}(-5x+70)$

(b) We need to tell at day 0 put x=0 in above equation:

$y=\frac{1}{4}(-5\cdot 0+70)$

$y=70$

Anika worked for 70 hours on the set up crew on the day the fair arrived at the fairgrounds day 0.

Now, we need to tell decrease per day which is equal to the slope of line

To find the slope compare the equation with general equation which is y=mx+c where m is slope

Here, in $y=\frac{1}{4}(-5x+70)$

$m=\frac{-5}{4}$ which is the decrease per day.

A bag contains 4 red balls, 2 green balls, 3 yellow balls, and 5 blue balls. Find each probability for randomly removing balls w

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$\frac{15}{4802}$ , $\frac{15}{9604}$ , $\frac{9}{2401}$ , $\frac{9}{4802}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag has a total of (4+2+3+5) = 14 balls. Set up the proportions:

Red: $\frac{4}{14}$

green: $\frac{2}{14}$

yellow: $\frac{3}{14}$

blue: $\frac{5}{14}$

Now solve!

Removing 1 yellow, 1 red, 1 green, and 1 blue = $\frac{3}{14} \cdot \frac{4}{14} \cdot \frac{2}{14} \cdot \frac{5}{14} =\frac{15}{4802}$

Removing 1 blue, 1 green, 1 green, and 1 yellow = $\frac{5}{14} \cdot \frac{2}{14} \cdot \frac{2}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14} =\frac{15}{9604}$

Removing 1 red, 1 red, 1 yellow, and 1 yellow = $\frac{4}{14} \cdot \frac{4}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14} =\frac{9}{2401}$

Removing 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 yellow, and 1 red = $\frac{2}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14} \cdot \frac{3}{14} \cdot \frac{4}{14} =\frac{9}{4802}$
