Answer:

14hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Andre and Morgan are both heading to the same location i.e Florida, they will have the same distance.

Distance = Speed × Time

For Morgan:

His speed = 55mi/hr

Let his time = x

Distance covered by Morgan = 55x

For Andre

His speed = 70mi/hr

Time = x-3 (since morgan leaves 3 hours earlier than Andre)

Distance covered = 70× (x-3) = 70(x-3)miles

Since they are driving towards the same location;

55x = 70(x-3)

55x = 70x-210

55x-70x = -210

-15x = -210

x = 210/15

x = 14

Hence Morgan will have been driving 14hours before Andre catch up

Assume that​ women's heights are normally distributed with a mean given by mu equals 62.5 in​,and a standard deviation given by
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

(a) 0.5899

(b) 0.9166

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that represents the height of a woman. Then, X is normally distributed with  

\mu = 62.5 in

\sigma = 2.2 in

the normal probability density function is given by  

f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}2.2}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2)^{2}}}, then

(a) P(X < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}f(x) dx = 0.5899

   (in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2)

(b) We are seeking P(\bar{X} < 63) where n = 37. \bar{X} is normally distributed with mean 62.5 in and standard deviation 2.2/\sqrt{37}. So, the probability density function is given by

g(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{37}}}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2/\sqrt{37})^{2}}}, and

P(\bar{X} < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}g(x)dx = 0.9166

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2/sqrt(37))

You can use a table from a book to find the probabilities or a programming language like the R statistical programming language.
