Assigned Media Question Help According to a random sample taken at 12​ A.M., body temperatures of healthy adults have a​ bell-sh

aped distribution with a mean of 98.3298.32degrees°F and a standard deviation of 0.590.59degrees°F. Using​ Chebyshev's theorem, what do we know about the percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures that are within 22 standard deviations of the​ mean? What are the minimum and maximum possible body temperatures that are within 22 standard deviations of the​ mean?

Answer:

1- \frac{1}{2^2} = 1-\frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}

So then we will have at least 75% of the data within two deviations from the mean \bar x \pm 2s.

\bar x -2s = 98.32 -2*0.59 = 97.14

\bar x +2s = 98.32 +2*0.59 = 99.5

So then the interval would be (97.14, 99.5)

Explanation:

Previous concepts

Chebyshev’s rule is appropriate for any distribution. "Chebyshev’s inequality applies to all distributions, regardless of shape". And is useful since provides a "minimum percentage of the observations that lies within k standard deviations of the mean.  "

If k = 2, at least 3/4 of the measurements lie within 2 standard deviations to within the mean.

And the general formula is (1-1/k^2) represent the fraction of the data within the mean .

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to find the percentage of data that would be at least within two deviations from the mean so for this case the value of k =2 and if we replace we got:

1- \frac{1}{2^2} = 1-\frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4}

So then we will have at least 75% of the data within two deviations from the mean \bar x \pm 2s.

For the other part we have the mean and deviation provided \bar x = 98.32 s = 0.59 the interval would be:

\bar x -2s = 98.32 -2*0.59 = 97.14

\bar x +2s = 98.32 +2*0.59 = 99.5

So then the interval would be (97.14, 99.5)

Rearrange the formula F=ma, and solve for the variable (a)
jeyben [28]

Answer:

a = F/m

Explanation:

So we have to isolate a, in order to do this we need to move m to the other side, and we do that by diving both sides by m, resulting in a = F/m

A skater slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 5.0 m/s. She slows 10 points
zvonat [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a skater is, u = 5 m/s

She slows to a velocity of 2 m/s over a distance of 20 m.

We can find the acceleration of skater. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity. So, it can be calculated using third equation of motion as follows :

v^2-u^2=2as

a = acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\\a=\dfrac{(2)^2-(5)^2}{2\times 20}\\\\a=-0.525\ m/s^2

So, her acceleration is 0.525\ m/s^2 and she is deaccelerating. Also, her initial velocity is given i.e. 5 m/s.

A hockey pick sliding along a frictional surface strikes a box at rest, after the collision the two objects stick together and m
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

Option a is correct  

If puck and pick constitute a system then the momentum of the system is conserved but not this may not be valid for the puck .

Option e is correct

If puck and pick is the system then momentum is conserved but because of the presence of friction, mechanical energy is not conserved.

Friction will cause the energy to dissipate in heat.

How much tension is in a rope if it pulls a 5-kg bucket filled with water with an upward acceleration of 1m/s^2
liraira [26]
F=ma
Tension - weight = mass x acceleration
T - 5(9.81) = 5 x 1
T = 5 + 5(9.81)
T = 54.05 N
T ≈ 54 N
