Police response time to an emergency call is the difference between the time the call is first received by the dispatcher and th

e time a patrol car radios that it has arrived at the scene. Over a long period of time, it has been determined that the police response time has a normal distribution with a mean of 8.8 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.9 minutes. For a randomly received emergency call, find the following probabilities. (a) the response time is between 5 and 10 minutes
(b) the response time is less than 5 minutes


(c) the response time is more than 10 minutes

Answer:

\mu = 8.8\\\sigma = 1.9

Now we are supposed to find probabilities that the response time is between 5 and 10 minutes i.e P(5<x<10)

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

at x = 5

z= \frac{5-8.8}{1.9}

z=-2

at x = 10

z= \frac{10-8.8}{1.9}

z=0.6315

P(-2<z<0.6315)=P(z<0.6315)-P(z<-2)

Refer the z table

P(-2<z<10)=0.7357-0.0228=0.7129

So, the probability that response time is between 5 and 10 minutes  is 0.7129

b)the response time is less than 5 minutes

at x = 5

z= \frac{5-8.8}{1.9}

z=-2

P(x<5)=P(z<-2)=0.0228

So, the probability that  the response time is less than 5 minutes is 0.0228

c)the response time is more than 10 minutes

at x = 10

z= \frac{10-8.8}{1.9}

z=0.6315

P(x>10) = 1-P(x<10) = 1-P(z<0.63) = 1-0.7357 = 0.2643

So, The probability that  the response time is more than 10 minutes is 0.2643

What is the standard form polynomial representing the volume of this shipping container?
liq [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the shipping container = Lengt * Breadth * Height

Given

Length = 4x² + 3x

Breadth = x² – 8

Height = 6x +15

Volume of the container = ( 4x² + 3x)( x² - 8)(6x+15)

( 4x² + 3x)( x² - 8)  = 4x⁴-32x²+3x³-24x

( 4x² + 3x)( x² - 8) = 4x⁴+3x³-32x²-24x

(4x⁴+3x³-32x²-24x)(6x+15) = 24x⁵+60x⁴+18x⁴+45x³-192x³-480x²-144x²-360x

Collect like terms

( 4x² + 3x)( x² - 8)(6x+15) = 24x⁵+78x⁴-147x³-624x²-360x

Hence the standard form polynomial representing the volume of this shipping container is expressed as V = 24x⁵+78x⁴-147x³-624x²-360x

How do i use properties of exponents
STatiana [176]
You can use the properties of exponents in three ways: Products of Power and Power to Power


Explanation:

Product of a Power: When you multiply exponentials with the same base, you add their exponents

Power to a Power: When you have a power to a power, you multiply the exponents.
Quotient of Powers: When you divide exponentials with the same base, you subtract the exponents.

2x-1<br> Hahahahahhaahhahahahahahahhahaha
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

x=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation: 2x-1=0

Add one to both sides. 2x=1

Divide two by both sides: x=1/2

Therefore, x =1/2, or .5
