16824 x .06 = 1009.44

.06 is 6% in decimal form.

So no, they would have more if we are assuming the 6% is true.

The scheduled arrival time for a daily flight from Boston to New York is 9:30 am. Historical data show that the arrival time fol

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable representing the flight arrival time from Boston to New York.

For a uniform probability distribution, the notation is

X U(a, b) where a is the lowest value of x and b is the lowest value of x

The probability density function, f(x) = 1/(b - a)

Mean, µ = (a + b)/2

Standard deviation, σ = √(b - a)²/12

From the information given, the time difference in minutes is 9:57 - 9:07 = 50 minutes. Therefore,

a = 0

b = 50

µ = (0 + 50)/2 = 25

σ = √(50 - 0)²/12 = 14.43

b) converting to minutes, it is 9:30 - 9:07 = 23 minutes

the probability that a flight arrives late(later than 9:30 am) is expressed as P(x > 23)

f(x) = 1/(50) = 0.02

P(x > 23) = (50 - 23)0.02 = 0.54

A statue is mounted on top of a 16 foot hill. From the base of the hill to where you are standing is 77 feet and the statue subt

DanielleElmas [232]

Consider right triangle with vertices B - base of the hill, S - top of the statue and Y - you. In this triangle angle B is right and angle Y is 13.2°. If h is a height of the statue, then the legs YB and BS have lengths 77 ft and 16+h ft.

You have lengths of two legs and measure of one acute angle, then you can use tangent to find h:

$\tan 13.2^{\circ}=\dfrac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}} =\dfrac{16+h}{77}, \\ \\ 0.2345=\dfrac{16+h}{77},\\ \\ 16+h=0.2345\cdot 77=18.0565,\\ h=18.0565-16=2.0565$ ft.

Answer: the height of the statue is 2.0565 ft.
