Answer:

The correct answer is 0.486.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of employees at the home office of Gibraltar Insurance Company is 270 + 340 = 610

Number of employees on flex time are 350, out of which 170 are men and 180 are women.

We need to find the probability that out of the given employees, a randomly chosen one is on flex time and is a man.

Favorable outcomes are 170 and total outcome is 350.

Thus the probability is given by \frac{170}{350} = 0.4857≈ 0.486

Let f(x)= x2 - 14 and g(x) = 6-X.<br> Find (fq)(7).
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

(fg)(7) = - 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are:

f(x) =  {x}^{2}  - 14

and

g(x) = 6 - x

We want to to find

(fg)(7)

Note that:

(fg)(x) = f(x) \times g(x)

We substitute the functions to obtain:

(fg)(x) = ( {x}^{2} -1 4 ) \times (6 - x)

We now substitute x=7, to get:

(fg)(7) = ( {7}^{2} -1 4 ) \times (6 - 7)

This implies that

(fg)(7) =( 49-1 4 ) \times (6 - 7)

(fg)(7)  = 35 \times  - 1 =  - 35

Suppose the force acting on a column that helps to support a building is a normally distributed random variable X with mean valu
Sauron [17]

Answer:

(1) 0.4207

(2) 0.7799

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Mean value,

\mu = 15.0

Standard deviation,

\sigma = 1.25

(1) P(X ≥ 17.5) = 1 - P( X ≤ 17.5)

= 1- P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{17.5-\mu}{\sigma})

=1-P(z\leq \frac{17.5 - 15}{1.25})

=1-P(z\leq \frac{2.5}{1.25})

=1-P(z\leq 2)

=1- 0.5793   ( By using z-score table )

= 0.4207

(2) P(14 ≤ X ≤ 18) = P(X ≤ 18) - P(X ≤ 14)

=P(z\leq \frac{18 - 15}{1.25}) - P(z\leq \frac{14 - 15}{1.25})

=P(z\leq \frac{3}{1.25}) - P(z\leq -\frac{1}{1.25})

=P(z\leq 2.4) - P(z\leq -0.8)

= 0.9918 - 0.2119

= 0.7799
