Answer:

A = 640000\,yd^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression for the rectangular area and perimeter are, respectively:

A (x,y) = x\cdot y

3200\,yd = 2\cdot (x+y)

After some algebraic manipulation, area expression can be reduce to an one-variable form:

y = 1600 -x

A (x) = x\cdot (1600-x)

The first derivative of the previous equation is:

\frac{dA}{dx}= 1600-2\cdot x

Let the expression be equalized to zero:

1600-2\cdot x=0

x = 800

The second derivative is:

\frac{d^{2}A}{dx^{2}} = -2

According to the Second Derivative Test, the critical value found in previous steps is a maximum. Then:

y = 800

The maximum area is:

A = (800\,yd)\cdot (800\,yd)

A = 640000\,yd^{2}

Suppose that an airline quotes a flight time of 128 minutes between two cities. Furthermore, suppose that historical flight reco
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

(a) The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a

(b) The value of P (129 ≤ X ≤ 146) is 0.3462.

(c) The probability that a randomly selected flight between the two cities will be at least 3 minutes late is 0.4327.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> is defined as the flight time between the two cities.

Since the random variable <em>X</em> denotes time interval, the random variable <em>X</em> is continuous.

(a)

The random variable <em>X</em> is Uniformly distributed with parameters <em>a</em> = 10 minutes and <em>b</em> = 154 minutes.

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a

(b)

Compute the value of P (129 ≤ X ≤ 146) as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

P (129 ≤ X ≤ 146) = P (129 - 0.50 < X < 146 + 0.50)

                           = P (128.50 < X < 146.50)

                           =\int\limits^{146.50}_{128.50} {\frac{1}{154-102}} \, dx

                           =\frac{1}{52}\times \int\limits^{146.50}_{128.50} {1} \, dx

                           =\frac{1}{52}\times (146.50-128.50)

                           =0.3462

Thus, the value of P (129 ≤ X ≤ 146) is 0.3462.

(c)

It is provided that a randomly selected flight between the two cities will be at least 3 minutes late, i.e. <em>X</em> ≥ 128 + 3 = 131.

Compute the value of P (X ≥ 131) as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

P (X ≥ 131) = P (X > 131 + 0.50)

                 = P (X > 131.50)

                 =\int\limits^{154}_{131.50} {\frac{1}{154-102}} \, dx

                 =\frac{1}{52}\times \int\limits^{154}_{131.50} {1} \, dx

                 =\frac{1}{52}\times (154-131.50)

                 =0.4327

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected flight between the two cities will be at least 3 minutes late is 0.4327.
