Answer:

P(X>60)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{60-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{60-49}{16})=P(z>0.6875)

And we can find the probability with the complement rule and the normal standard distirbution and we got:

P(z>0.6875)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the time spent reading of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(49,16)  

Where \mu=49 and \sigma=16

We are interested on this probability

P(X>60)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

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

Using this formula we got:

P(X>60)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{60-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{60-49}{16})=P(z>0.6875)

And we can find the probability with the complement rule and the normal standard distirbution and we got:

P(z>0.6875)=1-P(z

ryan rides his bicycle 5 miles in 3/4 hour. how many miles can he ride at the same rate in 1 hour? (in fractions)​
stepladder [879]

Answer:

20/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ryan rides his bike 5 miles in 3/4 of an hour, then he rides 5/3 miles in 1/4 of a hour (divide both by 3). To get to a full hour from 1/4, you need to multiply it by 4. You must do the same for 5/3. 5/3*4 is equal to 20/3.

Which of the following comparisons is correct?<br>-2 2<br>4&lt;−4<br>−6&lt; −5
zlopas [31]
<h3>Answer: Choice D)   -6 < -5</h3>

================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices

  • A) This is false because -2 is actually larger than -5. Make a number line and you'll see that -2 is to the right of -5. Numbers on the right are larger than numbers on the left.
  • B) This is also false. The value 0 is smaller than 2. A number line might help show this.
  • C) Also false. It should be 4 > -4. Any positive number is always larger than any negative number.
  • D) This is true. On a number line, -6 is to the left of -5, so -6 is smaller than -5. This makes -6 < -5 a true statement.

Which logarithmic equation is equivalent to the exponential equation below? E^a=35
oee [108]

Answer:

a = ln 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given e^a = 35, take the natural log of both sides, obtaining:

ln e^a = ln 35. Recall that ln e^x = x, which means that ln e^a = a.

Then a = ln 35.
