Answer:

e. 0.977

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 478, \sigma = 64

Which of the following is closest to the proportion of daily transactions greater than 350?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 350. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{350 - 478}{64}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.023

1 - 0.023 = 0.977

So the correct answer is:

e. 0.977

The current of a river is 3 miles per hour. A boat travels to a point 176 miles upstream and 176 miles back in 19 hours. What is
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

If I am understanding your question, the total upstream is 8 miles and another 8 miles downstream.

Let s = the speed of the boat in still water

d = rt

8 = 5(s + 3)  downstream

8 = 5s + 15  equation 1

8 = 5(s - 3)   upstream

8 = 5s - 15    Add equation 1

8 = 5s + 15 

16 = 10s    Divide both sides by 10.

s = 16/10 = 8/5 = 1.6 mph

Which equation can be used to prove 1 + tan2(x) = sec2(x)?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the trigonometric identity

cos²x + sin²x = 1

Divide all terms by cos²x

\frac{cos^2x}{cos^2x} + \frac{sin^2x}{cos^2x} = \frac{1}{cos^2x} which gives

1 + tan²x = sec²x
