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

A farmer plowed a rectangular section of land for a new crop. The section measures 24 1/2 yd by 38 1/2 yd. Find the total area i
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: 943\dfrac{1}{4}\text{ sq. yds}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ,  A farmer plowed a rectangular section of land for a new crop.

Dimensions of the section is given by :-

Length by width = 24\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ yd by }38\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ yd}

Since , the area of a rectangle = length x width

Then, the total area in yards of plowed section of land will be:

24\dfrac{1}{2}\times38\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ sq. yds}\\\\=\dfrac{2(24)+1}{2}\times\dfrac{2(38)+1}{2}\text{ sq. yds}\\\\=\dfrac{49}{2}\times\dfrac{77}{2}\text{ sq. yds}\\\\=\dfrac{3773}{4}\text{ sq. yds}\\\\=943\dfrac{1}{4}\text{ sq. yds}

Hence, the total area in yards of plowed section of land =  943\dfrac{1}{4}\text{ sq. yds}

What is the discount and sale price of a $300 item that has been discounted 10%?
maxonik [38]

Answer: The discount is $30, making the sale price $270.

Step-by-step explanation: Take your initial value times the percent of your discount to find the discount amount: in this case, it is 300 * .10 = 30. Then you can subtract that value from your initial value, 300-30=270 to get the sale price.
