Answer: 15.7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).

Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.

First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes.

Then they are able to reduce that time by 10

If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then

x-t1-t2= 3.6
x= 3.6+ t1+ t2
x= 3.6+ 2.1+ 10
x= 15.7

Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.

The amount of time people spend exercising in a given week follows a normal distribution with a mean of 3.8 hours per week and a
Travka [436]

Answer:

i and iii) In the figure attached part a we have the illustration for the area required for the probability of less than 2 hours and in b the illustration for the probability that X would be between 2 and 4

ii) P(X

And using the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(z

iv) P(2

And we can find the probability with the following difference and usint the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(-2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent amount of time people spend exercising in a given week, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(3.8,0.8)  

Where \mu=3.8 and \sigma=0.8

Part i and iii

In the figure attached part a we have the illustration for the area required for the probability of less than 2 hours and in b the illustration for the probability that X would be between 2 and 4

Part ii

We are interested on this probability:

P(X

We can use the z score formula given by:

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

Using this formula we have:

P(X

And using the normal standard table or excel we got:

P(z

Part iv

We want this probability:

P(2

Using the z score formula we got:

P(2

And we can find the probability with the following difference and usint the normal standard distirbution or excel and we got:

P(-2.25
