Based on FAA estimates the average age of the fleets of the 10 largest U.S. commercial passenger carriers is 13.4 years with a s

tandard deviation of 1.7 years. Suppose that 40 airplanes were randomly selected from the fleets of these 10 carriers and were inspected for cracks in these airplanes that are considered too large for flying. What is the probability that the average age of these 40 airplanes is at least 14 years old

Answer : 0.0129

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Based on FAA estimates the average age of the fleets of the 10 largest U.S. commercial passenger carriers is \mu=13.4 years and standard deviation is \sigma=1.7 years.

Sample size : n=40

Let X be the random variable that represents the age of fleets.

We assume that the ages of the fleets of the 10 largest U.S. commercial passenger carriers are normally distributed.

For z-score,

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

For x=14

z=\dfrac{14-13.4}{\dfrac{1.7}{\sqrt{40}}}\approx2.23

By using the standard normal distribution table , the probability that the average age of these 40 airplanes is at least 14 years old will be :-

P(x\geq 14)=P(z\geq2.23)\\\\=1-P(z

Hence, the required probability = 0.0129

Given the function, f (x) = sq3x+3+3, choose the correct transformation.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start from the parent function. The parent function is:

f(x)=\sqrt{x}

The possible transformations are so:

f(x)=a\sqrt{bx-c} +d,

where a is the vertical stretch, b is the horizontal stretch, c is the horizontal shift and d is the vertical shift.

From the given equation, we can see that a=1 (so no change), b=3, c=-3 (<em>negative </em>3), and d=3.

Thus, this is a horizontal stretch by a factor of 3, a shift of 3 to the <em>left </em>(because it's negative), and a vertical shift of 3 upwards (because it's positive).

Rufina [12.5K]
A/b=c
times both sides by b
A=bc
divide both sides by c
A/c=b
b=A/c

Which table shows a proportional relationship between x and y? A. x y 2 4 3 6 4 9 B. x y 3 4 9 16 15 20 C. x y 4 12 5 15 6 18 D.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship is proportion if y/x is constant.

So it is C because 12/4 = 15/5 = 18/6 = 3.
