Answer: The area of the path=
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The side length of square garden included the path= 10 ft
Then the area of the field which included both gardens and path=
The width of the path = 1 ft
Therefore, the side of square vegetable garden = 10-2=8 ft
The area of vegetable garden =
Therefore, the area of the path=
Answer:
And if we solve for a we got
So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 27.7 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the time to complete a simple haircut of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
Where and
We are interested in the slowest quartile or the first quartile
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
(a)
(b)
Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.
As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.75 of the area on the left and 0.25 of the area on the right it's z=0.674. On this case P(Z<0.674)=0.75 and P(z>0.674)=0.25
If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:
But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:
And if we solve for a we got
So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 27.7 minutes.
