Describe a way to make the arithmetic problem 45% x 680 mentally
lord [1]

Answer:

306.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we are aware 100% of 680 is obviously 680,

Next, we know half of a 100% is 50% therefore half of 680 is 340.

Then, we know 45% is 5% less than 50%

To find 5% of a number mentally, divide it by 10 as 100÷5=20

680÷20=34

Lastly 50% subtracted by 5%: 340-34=306.

Now we know, 45% of 680 is 306.

The concentration of particles in a suspension is 50 per mL. A 5 mL volume of the suspension is withdrawn. a. What is the probab
kolezko [41]

Answer:

(a) 0.6579

(b) 0.2961

(c) 0.3108

(d) 240

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of particles in a suspension.

The concentration of particles in a suspension is 50 per ml.

Then in 5 mL volume of the suspension the number of particles will be,

5 × 50 = 250.

The random variable <em>X</em> thus follows a Poisson distribution with parameter, <em>λ</em> = 250.

The Poisson distribution with parameter λ, can be approximated by the Normal distribution, when λ is large say λ > 10.  

The mean of the approximated distribution of X is:

μ = λ  = 250

The standard deviation of the approximated distribution of X is:

σ = √λ  = √250 = 15.8114

Thus, X\sim N(250, 250)

(a)

Compute the probability that the number of particles withdrawn will be between 235 and 265 as follows:

P(235

                             =P(-0.95

Thus, the value of P (235 < <em>X</em> < 265) = 0.6579.

(b)

Compute the probability that the average number of particles per mL in the withdrawn sample is between 48 and 52 as follows:

P(48

                             =P(-0.28

Thus, the value of P(48.

(c)

A 10 mL sample is withdrawn.

Compute the probability that the average number of particles per mL in the withdrawn sample is between 48 and 52 as follows:

P(48

                             =P(-0.40

Thus, the value of P(48.

(d)

Let the sample size be <em>n</em>.

P(48

                             0.95=P(-z

The value of <em>z</em> for this probability is,

<em>z</em> = 1.96

Compute the value of <em>n</em> as follows:

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}\\\\1.96=\frac{48-50}{15.8114/\sqrt{n}}\\\\n=[\frac{1.96\times 15.8114}{48-50}]^{2}\\\\n=240.1004\\\\n\approx 241

Thus, the sample selected must be of size 240.

Neko [114]
Yes because, if the building is 60 ft from the ground and the ladder is 70 ft,shouldn’t it escalate an extra 10 ft because this is technically an emergency and it can be considered to be used as a reason for safety purposes, if I’m not mistaken
