a. Suppose a BMW dealer in Fullerton, CA is trying to calculate the probability of his car sale for next week. The dealer knows

that the sale of car is normally distributed with mean 50 and variance 9. The variance 9 was calculated from the weekly car sale data of 20 weeks, as the population variance is not known to the dealer. What is the probability that the dealer will sell 51 or more cars next week? (Hint: use t distribution) (15)

Answer:

0.45576

Step-by-step explanation:

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

Standard Deviation = √variance

Mean = 50

= √9

= 3

z = 51 - 50/3

= 0.11111

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<51) = 0.54424

P(x>51) = 1 - P(x<51)

= 1 - 0.54424

= 0.45576

The probability that the dealer will sell 51 or more cars is 0.45576

Arthur drops a ball from a height of 81 feet above the ground. Its height, h, is given by the equation h = –16t2 + 81, where t i
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the position function and need to find the value of t when h<17.

Create an inequality that represents this situation:

-16t^2+81 The "less than" sign makes this very specifically a conjunction problem as opposed to a disjunction. That's important to the solution. But we'll get there.

The simplest way to solve this is to subtract 81 from both sides:

-16t^2 then divide both sides by -16:

t^2>4 Notice now that the sign is facing the other way since we had to divide by a negative number. Now it's a disjunction. The solution set to this inequality is that t>2 or t<-2. First and foremost, time will never be negative, so we can disregard the -2. Even if that was t<2, the more time that goes by, the greater the time interval is, not the lesser. It's the "<" that doesn't make sense, not only the -2. The solution to this inequality is

t > 2 sec. That means that after 2 seconds, the height of the ball is less than 17 feet.

A cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shif
omeli [17]

We have been given that a cosine function is a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis. The amplitude of the function is 11, the vertical shift is 9 units down, and the period of the function is \frac{7\pi}{12}. The graph of the function does not show a phase shift. We are asked to write the equation of our function.

We know that general form a cosine function is y=A\cos(b(x-c))-d, where,

A = Amplitude,

\frac{2\pi}{b} = Period,

c = Horizontal shift,

d = Vertical shift.    

The equation of parent cosine function is y=\cos(x). Since function is reflected about x-axis, so our function will be y=-\cos(x).

Let us find the value of b.

\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{7\pi}{12}

7\pi\cdot b=24\pi

\frac{7\pi\cdot b}{7\pi}=\frac{24\pi}{7\pi}

b=\frac{24}{7}

Upon substituting our given values in general cosine function, we will get:

f(x)=-11\cos(\frac{24}{7}x)-9

Therefore, our required function would be f(x)=-11\cos(\frac{24}{7}x)-9.

If g(x) = 3x + 2 and h(x) = 9x2 + 12x + 6, find a function f such that f ○ g = h
Virty [35]
F(g(x)) = f(3x+2) = h(x)=9x^2+12x + 6

Note that (3x+2)^2 = 9x^2 + 12x + 4, which is almost, but not quite, equal to h(x).

Let's experiment.  What if f(x) = x^2 + 2?

Then f(3x+2) = (3x+2)^2 + 2 = 9x^2 + 12x + 4 + 2 = 9x^2 + 12x + 6, which is the same as the given h(x).

Thus, f(x) is x^2 + 2.
