Answer:
13, 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameters of the numbers are;
A whole number value = 2 × Another number + 6
The sum of the two numbers is less than 50
Given that the first number is equal to more than twice the second number, we have that the first number is the larger number, while the second number is the smaller number
Where 'x' represents the second number, we get;
x + 2·x + 6 < 50
Simplifying gives;
3·x + 6 < 50
x < (50 - 6)/3 = 14.
x < 14.
Therefore, the numbers for which the inequality holds true are numbers less than 14.. From the given option, the numbers are 13, and 14.
Answer:
a) 34.46% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride this coaster.
b) 78.81% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride this coaster
c) 44.35% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride the coaster in part b but not tall enough to ride the coaster in part a
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
a. What proportion of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride the coaster?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 56.
So
has a pvalue of 0.6554
1 - 0.6554 = 0.3446
34.46% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride this coaster.
b. A smaller coaster has a height requirement of 50 inches to ride. What proportion of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride this coaster?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 50.
has a pvalue of 0.2119
1 - 0.2119 = 0.7881
78.81% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride this coaster.
c. What proportion of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride the coaster in part b but not tall enough to ride the coaster in part a?
Between 50 and 56 inches, which is the pvalue of Z when X = 56 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 50.
From a), when X = 56, Z has a pvalue of 0.6554
From b), when X = 50, Z has a pvalue of 0.2119
0.6554 - 0.2119 = 0.4435
44.35% of 10-year-old boys is tall enough to ride the coaster in part b but not tall enough to ride the coaster in part a
