The relative frequency distribution of the number of phobias reported by a hypothetical sample of 500 college students is given

as follows.
0–2 0.48
3–5 0.26
6–8 0.12
9–11 0.09
12–14 0.05

Required:

b. What is the probability that a college student expresses more than eight phobias?
c. What is the probability that a college student has between 3 and 11 phobias?

Answer:

a. 0.48

b. 0.14

c. 0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

0 - 2        0.48

3 - 5        0.26

6 - 8        0.12

9- 11        0.09

12- 14       0.05

Based on the above information

a. The probability for fewer than three phobias is

= P( x < 3)

= 0.48

b.  The probability for more than eight phobias is

= P( x >8)

= 0.09 + 0.05  

= 0.14

c. Probability between 3 and 11 phobias is  

= P(3 < x < 11)

= 0.26 + 0.12  + 0.09

= 0.47

Anna71 [15]

The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.

<h3>equation</h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the length of his shadow. Given that the ratio of ernie's height to his shadow's height is 1.5 to 1. Hence:

  • (1.5/2.5) * y = 6
  • y = 10 feet

(1/2.5) * 10 = x

x = 4 feet

The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.

A grocery stores studies how long it takes customers to get through the speed check lane. They assume that if it takes more than
Reptile [31]

The probability that a randomly selected customer takes more than 10 minutes will be 8.38%

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The average or mean(\mu) is 8.56 minutes and standard deviation(\sigma) is 1.04 minutes.

<u>Formula for finding the z-score</u> is:   z= \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

So, the z-score for X= 10 minutes will be.....

z(X=10)=\frac{10-8.56}{1.04}=\frac{1.44}{1.04}=1.3846... \approx 1.38

Now, according to the standard normal distribution table,  P(z . So.....

P(X>10)=P(z>1.38)= 1-P(z

So, the probability that a randomly selected customer takes more than 10 minutes will be 8.38%
