If the distribution is really (5.43,0.54)

defon

Answer:

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose there was a small typing mistake, so i am going to use the distribution as N (5.43,0.54)

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.

The general format of the normal distribution is:

N(mean, standard deviation)

Which means that:

$\mu = 5.43, \sigma = 0.54$

What proportion of observations would be less than 5.79?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5.79. So

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

$Z = \frac{5.79 - 5.43}{0.54}$

$Z = 0.67$

$Z = 0.67$ has a pvalue of 0.7486

0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79

Given the position of the particle, what the position(s) of the particle when it’s at rest

choli [55]

The position function of a particle is given by:

$X\mleft(t\mright)=\frac{2}{3}t^3-\frac{9}{2}t^2-18t$

The velocity function is the derivative of the position:

$\begin{gathered} V(t)=\frac{2}{3}(3t^2)-\frac{9}{2}(2t)-18 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ V(t)=2t^2-9t-18 \end{gathered}$

The particle will be at rest when the velocity is 0, thus we solve the equation:

$2t^2-9t-18=0$

The coefficients of this equation are: a = 2, b = -9, c = -18

Solve by using the formula:

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81-4(2)(-18)}}{2(2)} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81+144}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{225}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm15}{4} \end{gathered}$

We have two possible answers:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9+15}{4}=6 \\ t=\frac{9-15}{4}=-\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

We only accept the positive answer because the time cannot be negative.

Now calculate the position for t = 6:

$undefined$

$\bf \cfrac{64~\underline{mi}}{\underline{hr}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{hr}}{60~sec}\cdot \cfrac{5200~ft}{\underline{mi}}\implies \cfrac{64\cdot 5200~ft}{60~sec}\implies \cfrac{16640~ft}{3~sec}

\cfrac{6000~\underline{lbs}}{\underline{day}}\cdot \cfrac{ton}{2000~\underline{lbs}}\cdot \cfrac{7~\underline{day}}{week}\implies \cfrac{6000\cdot 7~ton}{2000~week}\implies 21.00\frac{ton}{week}$

$\bf -------------------------------\\\\
