If 100% of a number is 15, what is 50% of the number?

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Let n be the number

100% of a number is 15 is written as: 100% × n = 15

100% = 100 / 100 = 1

Hence

100% × n = n = 15

We now need to find 50% of the number

50% of 15 = (50 / 100) × 15 = 750 / 100 = 7.5

The delivery times for all food orders at a fast-food restaurant during the lunch hour are normally distributed with a mean of m

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

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

$X \sim N(14.7,3.7)$

Where $\mu=14.7$ and $\sigma=3.7$

Since the distribution of X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And we have;

$\mu_{\bar X}= 14.70$

$\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{3.7}{\sqrt{40}}= 0.59$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this question: The delivery times for all food orders at a fast-food restaurant during the lunch hour are normally distributed with a mean of 14.7 minutes and a standard deviation of 3.7 minutes. Let R be the mean delivery time for a random sample of 40 orders at this restaurant. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of $\bar X$ Round your answers to two decimal places.

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 delivery times of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(14.7,3.7)$

Where $\mu=14.7$ and $\sigma=3.7$

Since the distribution of X is normal then we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And we have;

$\mu_{\bar X}= 14.70$

$\sigma_{\bar X} =\frac{3.7}{\sqrt{40}}= 0.59$

Select the scenario below that demonstrates sampling bias. Select the correct answer below:

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

C. Elizabeth wants to estimate the mean vacation days of coworkers at her company. She collects data by selecting a random group of coworkers within her department.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sampling Bias is case, in which some section of population have higher or lower chance of being selected in sample than others.

'Elizabeth wants to estimate the mean vacation days of coworkers at her company. She collects data by selecting a random group of coworkers within her department'. This case is of Convenience Sampling, where person selects sample only as per his/ her convenience.

Elizabeth has conveniently chosen sample workers from her department, so they have higher chance of being in sample, others have lesser chance. Hence, this is Sampling Bias

Please help!! MathsWatch, Surd Expressions, Clip 207c

Answer:

$A=(72+36\sqrt{3})\ mm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem

Let

a ----> the height of rectangle in mm

b ---> the base of rectangle in mm

step 1

Find the base of rectangle

$b=AB+BC+CD+DE$ ----> by segment addition postulate

substitute

$b=3+3+3+3=12\ mm$

step 2

Find the height of rectangle

$a=FB+CG+GH$ ---> by segment addition postulate

substitute the given values

$a=3+CG+3\\a=6+CG$

Find the length sides CG

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$BG^2=BC^2+CG^2$

substitute the given values

$6^2=3^2+CG^2$

$CG^2=6^2-3^2$

$CG=\sqrt{27}\ mm$

simplify

$CG=3\sqrt{3}\ mm$

therefore

$a=(6+3\sqrt{3})\ mm$

step 3

Find the area of rectangle

$A=ab$

we have

$a=(6+3\sqrt{3})\ mm$

$b=12\ mm$

substitute

$A=(6+3\sqrt{3})(12)=(72+36\sqrt{3})\ mm^2$
