Answer: 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be a random variable that represents the speed of the drivers.
Given: population mean : M = 72 miles ,
Standard deviation: s= 3.2 miles
The probability that the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution:
![P(70\leq X\leq 80)=P(\frac{70-72}{3.2}\leq \frac{X-M}{s}\leq\frac{80-72}{3.2})\\\\= P(-0.625\leq Z\leq 2.5)\ \ \ \ \ [Z=\frac{X-M}{s}]\\\\=P(Z\leq2.5)-P(Z\leq -0.625)\\\\\\ =0.9938-0.2660\ \ \ [\text{Using p-value calculator}]\\\\=0.7278](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%2870%5Cleq%20X%5Cleq%2080%29%3DP%28%5Cfrac%7B70-72%7D%7B3.2%7D%5Cleq%20%5Cfrac%7BX-M%7D%7Bs%7D%5Cleq%5Cfrac%7B80-72%7D%7B3.2%7D%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%20P%28-0.625%5Cleq%20Z%5Cleq%202.5%29%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5BZ%3D%5Cfrac%7BX-M%7D%7Bs%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3DP%28Z%5Cleq2.5%29-P%28Z%5Cleq%20-0.625%29%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%3D0.9938-0.2660%5C%20%5C%20%5C%20%5B%5Ctext%7BUsing%20p-value%20calculator%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D0.7278)
Hence, 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.
Answer:
Train A = 128
Train B = 68
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a system of equations for this problem
Let A = # of tons of Train A
Let B = # of tons of Train B
A + B = 196
A = B + 60
Now, we plug in A for the first equation, using substitution
(B+60) + B = 196
2B + 60 = 196
Subtract 60 from both sides
2B = 136
Divide both sides by 2
B = 68
Plug in 68 for B in the 2nd equation
A = 68 + 60
A = 128
Checking work: 128 + 68 = 196 :D hope this helped
Answer:
- (5/22)
Step-by-step explanation:
(12-2x+8)/3 = (6x + 15)/2
(20 - 2x)/3 = ( 6x + 15)/2
Now cross multiplication
40 - 4x = 18x + 45
-18x - 4x = 45- 40
- 22x = 5
x = - ( 5/22)
Fill your inequality in with the y and x provided and then do the math. (4, -1) would fill in like this (I will use brackets to indicate absolute value symbols, since there are none in the equation editor):
![-1\ \textgreater \ [4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B4%5D-5)
The right side is in fact equal to the left side so that's not the answer. For (-1, -4):
![-4\ \textgreater \ [-1]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-4%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-1%5D-5)
and these are also equal. Let's try C now (-4, 1):
![1\ \textgreater \ [-4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-4%5D-5)
. The absolute vale of -4 is 4 so 4 - 5 = -1 which is, in fact, less than 1. So C is our answer.
Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'x' be number of females in the course
Number of males= 5x
total number of students= 5x+x
= 6x
Fraction of male students= number of male students/total number of students
= 5x/6x
= 5/6
