13 cans of paint with 5/6 liters of paint in each were used to paint 4 identical cars. How can you calculate the amount of paint
brilliants [131]

Answer:

(B) 5/6 ·13÷4

(C) 5/6 ÷4·13

(D) 5/6 · 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of paint per can = \[\frac{5}{6}\] liters.

Number of cans used to paint 4 cars = 13

Total amount of paint used for 4 cars = \[13 * \frac{5}{6}\] liters.

= \[\frac{13 * 5}{6}\] liters.

= \[\frac{65}{6}\] liters.

Total amount of paint used for 1 car = \[\frac{65}{6} \div 4\] liters.

= \[\frac{65}{24}\] liters.

Of the given options, option B,C and D correspond to the same value.

A fire department in a rural county reports that its response time to fires is approximatelyNormally distributed with a mean of
____ [38]

Answer:

Option C) 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 22 minutes

Standard Deviation, σ = 11.9 minutes

We are given that the distribution of  response time is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(response times is over 30 minutes)

P(x > 30)

P( x > 30) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{30 - 22}{11.9}) = P(z > 0.6722)

= 1 - P(z \leq 0.6722)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x > 30) = 1 - 0.749= 0.251 = 25.1\%

Thus, the correct answer is

Option C) 0.25
