Short answer: P=0.25
Step One
Find the area of the shaded area
Area = L * W
L = 1.5 feeet
W = 1 foot

Area = 1.5 * 1 = 1.5 ft^2

Step Two
Find the total area
Total Area = L * W
L = 3 feet
W = 2

Area = 3 * 2 = 6 feet^2

Step Three
P = Shaded Area / Total Area
P = 1.5 / 6
P = 1/4

Discussion
This problem should make you a bit uncomfortable. I'm answering it exactly the way it is asked, but if you do hit the shaded area, does it count as a hit in the entire area as well? I would answer the way it is asked, but it is something to look out for in the future.

2n-5(n+5)=8n+3(1-5n) what does n equal to

Alenkinab [10]

Reorder the terms: 2n + -5(5 + n) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) 2n + (5 * -5 + n * -5) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) 2n + (-25 + -5n) = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) Reorder the terms: -25 + 2n + -5n = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) Combine like terms: 2n + -5n = -3n -25 + -3n = 8n + 3(1 + -5n) -25 + -3n = 8n + (1 * 3 + -5n * 3) -25 + -3n = 8n + (3 + -15n) Reorder the terms: -25 + -3n = 3 + 8n + -15n Combine like terms: 8n + -15n = -7n -25 + -3n = 3 + -7n Solving -25 + -3n = 3 + -7n Solving for variable 'n'. Move all terms containing n to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '7n' to each side of the equation. -25 + -3n + 7n = 3 + -7n + 7n Combine like terms: -3n + 7n = 4n -25 + 4n = 3 + -7n + 7n Combine like terms: -7n + 7n = 0 -25 + 4n = 3 + 0 -25 + 4n = 3 Add '25' to each side of the equation. -25 + 25 + 4n = 3 + 25 Combine like terms: -25 + 25 = 0 0 + 4n = 3 + 25 4n = 3 + 25 Combine like terms: 3 + 25 = 28 4n = 28 Divide each side by '4'. n = 7 Simplifying n = 7

Bob Nale is the owner of Nale’s Quick Fill. Bob would like to estimate the mean number of gallons of gasoline sold to his custom

ira [324]

Answer:

a) The best estimator for the population mean is given by the sample mean $\hat \mu = \bar X = 5.70$

b) The 99% confidence interval would be given by (4.969;6.431)

c) We are 99% confident that the true mean for th number of gallons of gasoline sold to his customers is between 4.969 and 6.431.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=1.9$ represent the population standard deviation

n=45 represent the sample size

2) Part a

The best estimator for the population mean is given by the sample mean $\hat \mu = \bar X = 5.70$

3) Part b. Develop a 99 percent confidence interval for the population mean.

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=2.58$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$5.7-2.58\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{45}}=4.969$

$5.7+2.58\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{45}}=6.431$

So on this case the 99% confidence interval would be given by (4.969;6.431)

4) Part c. Interpret the meaning of part (b).

On this case we can say this: We are 99% confident that the true mean for th number of gallons of gasoline sold to his customers is between 4.969 and 6.431.
