A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 48.048.0 and

53.053.0 minutes. Find the probability that a given class period runs between 50.550.5 and 51.7551.75 minutes.

Answer:

The probability of selecting a class that runs between 50.550.5 and 51.7551.75 minutes is 0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

A uniform distribution is a flat distribution that has the same probability density for every number. The area under the graph of the distribution must be 1. Since this distribution runs from 48.048.0 to 53.053.0  minutes,

it has a range of 5.005 (53.053.0 - 48.048.0).

The density must be 1/5.005 ≅ 0.2, so that 5.005*0.2 ≅ 1.0.

 

To find the probability of being between two numbers multiply the range between the numbers by the probability density.

range:51.7551.75 - 50.550.5 ≅ 1.2

1.2*0.2 = 0.24

P(50.550.5 < x < 51.7551.75) = 0.24

The probability of selecting a class that runs between 50.550.5 and 51.7551.75 minutes is 0.24

Answer:

Probability = 0.241

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the probability that a given class period runs through the given time recognizing that a uniform probability distribution is mostly a rectangle with an area equal to 1.

Therefore,

Probability = 51.7551 - 50.550/53.053 - 48.0480 = 1.2057/5.005

= 0.241

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.734

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A local trucking company fitted a regression to relate the travel time (days) of its shipments as a function of the distance traveled (miles).

The fitted regression is Time = −7.126 + .0214 Distance

Based on a sample size n = 20

And an Estimated standard error of the slope = 0.0053

the critical value for a right-tailed test to see if the slope is positive, using ∝ = 0.05 can be computed as follows:

Let's determine the degree of freedom df = n - 1

the degree of freedom df = 20 - 2

the degree of freedom df =  18

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05 and degree of freedom df =  18

For a right tailed test t, the critical value from the t table is :

t_{0.05, 18} = 1.734

Im in algebra II honors and right now we are working on parabolas and quadratic equations. Can someone help me understand how to
Maurinko [17]

f (x) = a(x - h)2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola. FYI: Different textbooks have different interpretations of the reference "standard form" of a quadratic function.

The standard form of a parabola is y=ax2++bx+c , where a≠0 . The vertex is the minimum or maximum point of a parabola. If a>0 , the vertex is the minimum point and the parabola opens upward. If a<0 , the vertex is the maximum point and the parabola opens downward.

2. A recipe says that 6 spring rolls will serve 3 people. Complete the table as you answer the questions. Be prepared to explain
LuckyWell [14K]

Answers:

a. 0.5 people

b. 10 spring rolls will serve 5 people, 16 spring rolls will serve  8 people, 25 spring rolls will serve 12.5 people

c. n/2 or 1/2 of n

Step-by-step explanation:

if 6=3p, p representing each person, then we find that 2 spring rolls serve 1 person, so 1 spring roll serves 0.5 people!

if 1=0.5p, then p is 1/2 of the amount of spring rolls.

Divide each of the amount of spring rolls by 2.

10=5p

16=8p

25=12.5p

n=n/2

The variable p is important, as to show that it's the amount of people.

Hope this helps!
