The commuter trains on the Red Line for the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) in Cleveland, OH, have a waiting time during peak r

ush hour periods of eight minutes ("2012 annual report," 2012).
a.) Find the height of this uniform distribution.


b.) Find the probability of waiting between four and five minutes.


c.) Find the probability of waiting between three and eight minutes.

Answer:

a) height of this uniform distribution = 1/8 = 0.125.

b) P( 4 < x < 5) = (5 - 4)*0.125 = 0.125

c) P( 3 < x < 8) = (8 - 3)*0.125 = 0.625

d) P(x = 0) = 0*0.125 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of this uniform distribution is same as finding the probability for each waiting minutes.

Height of uniform distribution = 1/n. Where n is the number of occurence, in this n = 8.

a) height of this uniform distribution = 1/8 = 0.125.

Let random variable x = waiting time.

b) probability of waiting between four and five minutes

P( 4 < x < 5) = (5 - 4)*0.125 = 0.125

c) probability of waiting between three and eight minutes

P( 3 < x < 8) = (8 - 3)*0.125 = 0.625

d) probability of waiting five minutes exactly.

Since this would be just one line, and the width of the line is 0, then the

P(x = 0) = 0*0.125 = 0

suppose a consumer advocacy group would like to conduct a survey to find the proportion p of consumers who bought the newest gen
Zepler [3.9K]

The size of the sample they should take to estimate p with a 2% margin of error and 90% confidence is n = 1691.

In statistics, the margin of error is just the degree of a significant error in the outcomes of random sample surveys.

The formula of margin error is, E = z√((p-vector)(1 - (p-vector)) ÷ n)

E = 2% = 0.02

Confidence level = 90%

Now, the proportion is not given so adopt nominal (p-vector) = 0.05

The critical value at CL of 90% is 1.645.

Thus, making n the subject,

n = z²(((p-vector) × (1 - (p-vector))) ÷ E²)

n = 1.645²((0.5 × 0.5) ÷ 0.02²)

n = 1691.266

n ≈ 1691

Sita Rahim drove due north for 3 hours at 46 miles per hour. From the
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

224 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

What you would do is take the 3 hours times the 46 mph to get 138 miles.

3*46=138

Next, multiply the 2 hours by the 43 mph to get 86 miles.

2*43=86

Lastly, you're going to add the two.

138+86=224 miles.

Answer:

Right angle triangle goes to 15m, 8m, 17m

Step-by-step explanation:

Square root of 15^2 + 8^2 is 17

(The use of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 - Pythagoras's Theorem)

So, 10m ,11m ,15m isn't a right angle triangle

The total number of gallons of water in a tank, w, after t minutes is given in this table and the plot.
Katyanochek1 [597]

The equation showing the relationship between w and t is w = 4t

From the table, we have the following points:

(0,0) and (1,4)

Start by calculating the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

So, we have:

m = \frac{4 -0}{1 -0}

Simplify the numerator and the denominator

m = \frac{4}{1}

Divide 4 by 1

m = 4

The equation is then calculated as:

w = m(t - t_1) + w_1

This gives

w = 4(t - 0) + 0

Simplify

w = 4t

Hence, the equation is w = 4t
