Answer:

A) 5x + 2y = 22

B) -2x + 6y = 3 We'll multiply A) by -3

A) -15x -6y = -66 Then we'll add B)

B) -2x + 6y = 3

-17x = -63

x = 3.7058823529

y = 1.7352941178

Assume that the empirical rule is a good model for the time it takes for all passengers to board an airplane. The mean time is 4

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The interval that describes how long it takes for passengers to board the middle 95% of the time is between 40.16 minutes and 55.84 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 48, \sigma = 4$ .

Which interval describes how long it takes for passengers to board the middle 95% of the time?

This is between the 2.5th percentile and the 97.5th percentile.

So this interval is the value of X when Z has a a pvalue of 0.025 and the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.975

Lower Limit

Z has a pvalue of 0.025 when $Z = -1.96$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$-1.96 = \frac{X - 48}{4}$

$X - 48 = -1.96*4$

$X = 40.16$

Upper Limit

Z has a pvalue of 0.975 when $Z = 1.96$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$1.96 = \frac{X - 48}{4}$

$X - 48 = 1.96*4$

$X = 55.84$

The interval that describes how long it takes for passengers to board the middle 95% of the time is between 40.16 minutes and 55.84 minutes.

A die is thrown . find the probability of (1) a multiple of 2 or 3

tangare [24]

Answer:

A die is thrown which means that it can land on either 1-6 on the die.So if you want to find the probability of the multiple of 2 or 3....we have multiplies of 2 in the die from 1-6 which is 2,4 and 6 if you count them they are just 3 numbers and since there is a probability of it to land on any of them it will be 3/6 which is 1/2 if yiu divide by 3 to it's lowest term....Then multiple of 3 is 3,and 6.which will be 2/6 which is 1/3 if u cut to its lowest term. Or in the question means addition sign in probability then it is 2 or 3 which is (1/2)+(1/3)=5/6.Thank you for the question

Haruka hiked several kilometers in the morning. She hiked only 666 kilometers in the afternoon, which was 25\%25%25, percent les

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

She hiked 1,554 kilometers in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the hiking kilometers for morning be x

Given that:

Hiking kilometers in afternoon = 666

According to given condition that afternoon kilometers are 25% less than morning:

x = 666 + 25% of x

By simplifying:

x = 666 + 0.25x

x - 0.25x = 666

0.75x = 666

Dividing both sides by 0.75 we get:

x = 666/0.75

x = 888 kilometers

She hiked 888 kilometers in morning

And

Total = 888 + 666 =1554 km

i hope it will help you!
