Answer:

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

X \sim N(14.7,3.7)  

Where \mu=14.7 and \sigma=3.7

Since the distribution of X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we have;

\mu_{\bar X}= 14.70

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{3.7}{\sqrt{40}}= 0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this question: The delivery times for all food orders at a fast-food restaurant during the lunch hour are normally distributed with a mean of 14.7 minutes and a standard deviation of 3.7 minutes. Let R be the mean delivery time for a random sample of 40 orders at this restaurant. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of \bar X Round your answers to two decimal places.

Previous concepts

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".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

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

X \sim N(14.7,3.7)  

Where \mu=14.7 and \sigma=3.7

Since the distribution of X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we have;

\mu_{\bar X}= 14.70

\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{3.7}{\sqrt{40}}= 0.59

Tell whether the angles are adjacent or vertical. Then find the value of x.
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

These are Vertical angles, adjacent angles are next to each other and make up a whole angle, while vertical angles are across and equal the same thing.

X = 81 because 84 and (x + 3) are the same so 84 minus 3 is 81

Hope that helps

Which statements are true about the graph of y ≤ 3x + 1 and y ≥ –x + 2? Check all that apply. 1.The slope of one boundary line i
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

2.Both boundary lines are solid.

3.A solution to the system is (1, 3)

5.The boundary lines intersect.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y\leq 3x+1 ----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area below the solid line y=3x+1

The slope of the solid line is 3

The point (1,3) is  a solution of inequality A (lie in the shaded area of the solution set)

y\geq -x+2 ----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area above the solid line y=-x+2

The slope of the solid line is -1

The point (1,3) is a solution of inequality B (lie in the shaded area of the solution set)

The solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area between the two solids lines

see the attached figure

<u><em>Verify each statement</em></u>

1.The slope of one boundary line is 2

The statement is False

2.Both boundary lines are solid.

The statement is True

3.A solution to the system is (1, 3)

The statement is True

4.Both inequalities are shaded below the boundary lines

The statement is False

5.The boundary lines intersect.

The statement is True

The intersection point is (0.25,1.75)

see the attached figure
