Answer:

The required probability is 0.533.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The actual weight of the chocolate has a uniform distribution ranging from 31 to 32.5 ounces.

Let x is the random variable for the actual weight of chocolate.

According to PDF function.

P(a\leq x\leq b)=\int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx

Where f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{b-a} & a

It is given that ranging from 31 to 32.5 ounces.

Substitute a=31 and b=32.5 in above function.

f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{32.5-31} & 31

f(x)=\left\{\begin{matrix}\frac{1}{1.5} & 31

We need to find the probability that a box weighs less than 31.8 ounces

Now according to PDF:

P(x

P(x

Hence, the required probability is 0.533.

Solution :

a). The required linear regression model is

Price = $-1242.986 + 75.017 \times \text{age of part} + 13.973 \times \text{ number of bidders}$

b). The $\text{p-value}$ for the variable "Age of part" is 0.0000

Since the $\text{p-value}$ is less than 0.05, so it is significant to the model.

The p-value for the variable "Number of bidders" is 0.1940

Since $\text{p-value}$  is not less than $0.05$, so it is significant to the model.

c). We cannot say that model is significant because variable " the number of bidders" is not significant.

But as both variables have positive coefficient so as the variable increases the price received for the item also increased.

The distance between Anubhav’s school and his house is 45 km. He started from his house for school at 7:00 am and covered 30 km
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

45 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first part of the trip, he already covered 30 km so we can subtract that from the total distance

45 - 30 = 15

This means he has 15 km to go

He also took an hour, or 60 minutes, to get to school. We subtract the time spent of the first part and time spent talking to a friend from the 60 minutes

60 - 35 = 25

25 - 5 = 20

He took 20 minutes to cover the second part of the journey

Speed = distance/time

15/20 = 0.75

He covered 0.75 km per MINUTE

to find it in km/h, we just multiply the number by 60

0.75 x 60 = 45
