Assume that military aircraft use ejection seats designed for men weighing between 141.8 lb and 218 lb. If​ women's weights are

normally distributed with a mean of 173.6 lb and a standard deviation of 49.8 ​lb, what percentage of women have weights that are within those​ limits? Are many women excluded with those​ specifications?

Answer:

P(141.8

And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table:

P(-0.639

Then the answer would be approximately 55.3% of women between the specifications. And that represent more than the half of women

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(173.6,49.8)  

Where \mu=173.6 and \sigma=49.8

We are interested on this probability

P(141.8

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(141.8

And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table:

P(-0.639

Then the answer would be approximately 55.3% of women between the specifications. And that represent more than the half of women

Lindsey rows a boat downstream for 80 miles. The retum trip upstream took 12 hours longer. If the current flows at 3 mph, how fa
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

14hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

v = speed in still water

 

t = downstream trip time

 

d = distance = 182 miles; same distance both downstream and upstream

 

t + 12 = upstream return trip time

 

u = current flow = 3 mph

 

Downstream:  d = (v + u)t;  Upstream:  d = (v - u)(t + 12)

 

(v - 3)(t + 12) = 182  (equation 1)

(v + 3)t = 182  (equation 2)

 

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1 to get t:

 

(vt + 12v -3t -36) - (vt + 3t) = 0

 

12v - 6t - 36 = 0

 

t = 2v - 6

 

Substitute this result for t into equation 2 and solve for v:

 

(v + 3)(2v - 6) = 182

 

2v^2 - 6v + 6v - 18 = 182

 

v^2 = 100

 

v = 10 mph

 

t = 2v - 6 = [2(10) - 6] hrs = 14 hrs

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

5.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If he ran 11 miles in 2 hours then divide both of them by 2, so 1 hour is equal to 11 / 2 which is 5.5 miles
