The mean incubation time for a type of fertilized egg kept at 100.7100.7â°f is 2323 days. suppose that the incubation times are

approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 22 daysdays. â(a) what is the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches in less than 2121 âdays? â(b) what is the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg hatches between 1919 and 2323 âdays? â(c) what is the probability that a randomly selected fertilized egg takes over 2525 days toâ hatch?

In this item, we have the mean incubation period of 23 days and the standard deviation is 22 days. We use z-score to determine the unknown in each of the items.

(a) less than 21 days.
       z-score = (23 - 21) / 22 = 1/11
This translates to a percentage of 53.6%

(b) z-score for 19 days.
     z-score = (23 - 19) / 22 = 2/11
This translates to a percentage of 57.2%.
   
    z-score for 23 days.
   z-score = (23 - 23)/ 22 = 0
This translates to a percentage of 50%.

The difference between the two numbers is only 7.2%

(c) z-score of 25.
     z-score = (23 - 25)/ 22 = -1/11
This translates to a percentage of 42.3%.

Then, subtract this value from 100 to give us the final answer of 57.2%.

An airline company advertises that 100% of their flights are on time after checking 5 flights from yesterday and finding that th
just olya [345]

a) The population is all of the flights belonging to the particular airline. It's not all flights in general because the airline does not have control over a rival company's flight schedule.

------------------

b) The sample is the 5 airlines the company selected. Ideally the sample should represent the population as much as possible. The larger the sample, the more representative the sample is.

------------------

c) No, the sample is likely <u>not</u> representative because one day of flight does not represent the entire lifetime of all flights done so far for that company. This particular day could have been a very good day with good weather, which may explain why the 5 flights were all on time.

------------------

d) It would be better for the company to select the days at random and sample all of the flights for those particular days chosen. This is a cluster sample. Each cluster is a day. Also, I think more flights should be sampled. Five flights does not seem like enough.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative out front only tells us which way the parabola will open. That means that the first one will open upside down, since it's got a negative out front. The value of the number that serves as the leading coefficient (the number stuck to the x-squared) determines how steep or wide-open the parabola's shape is. The leading coefficient in the first one is a 1, so it opens up exactly as wide as its parent graph does. The leading coefficient in the second one, a 2, means that the parabola will be skinnier or narrower than its parent. If the leading coefficient is greater than 1, the parabola will be narrower than its parent; if the leading coefficient is greater than 0 but less than 1, the parabola will open wider than its parent.
