Answer:

e = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve for e in the following equation,

.75(8 + e) = 2 - 1.25e

We need to distribute and use the communicative property to find e.

6 + .75e = 2 - 1.25e

-2 to both sides

4 + .75e = -1.25e

-.75 to both sides

4 = -2e

-2 to both sides

e = -2

Thus,

e is -2.

Suppose in the University of Manitoba, 40% of the students live in apartments. If 600 students are randomly selected, then the a

just olya [345]

Answer:

$P(200\leq X\leq 400)=P(\frac{200-240}{12}\leq \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq \frac{400-240}{12})=P(-3.33\leq Z \leq 13.33)$

$=P(Z$

So then the correct answer would be:

B) .9996

Step-by-step explanation:

The exact way to solve this problem is using the binomial distribution, assuming that our random variable of interest is "number of students living in apartments" represented by X and $X \sim Bin(n=600, p =0.4)$

And we want this probability:

$P(200 \leq X \leq 400) [tex]In order to find this probability we can use the foloowing excel code:"=BINOM.DIST(400,600,0.4,TRUE)-BINOM.DIST(199,600,0.4,TRUE)"And we got:[tex] P(200 \leq X \leq 400) =0.999675[tex]But for this case the problem says that we need to approximate, so then we can use the normal approximation to the normal distribution. We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.
[tex]np=600*0.4=240\geq 10$

$n(1-p)=600*(1-0.4)=360 \geq 10$

So we see that we satisfy the conditions and then we can apply the approximation.

If we appply the approximation the new mean and standard deviation are:

$E(X)=np=600*0.4=240$

$\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{600*0.4(1-0.4)}=12$

And then $X \sim N (\mu = 240, \sigma= 12)$

And we are interested on the following probability:

$P(200\leq X\leq 400)=P(\frac{200-240}{12}\leq \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq \frac{400-240}{12})=P(-3.33\leq Z \leq 13.33)$

$=P(Z$

So then the correct answer would be:

B) .9996

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

You will drive 5 kilometers a second

Step-by-step explanation: To determine how many kilometers you will drive in one second, you need to take the data already given to you and use it to solve this problem. First you need to take the amount of kilometers you drive in 20 seconds which is 100, and divide it by 20 to find out the answer to this problem.
