Undersea explorers discover a second sentient race living on Earth. This species is scientifically much more advanced but cannot

share its discoveries because it uses a different system of units. Human scientists first try to convert between units of length: they measure a meter as 12 bap'ai and 2 bok'ai or alternatively 10 bap'ai and 10 bok'ai. In centimeters, how much distance is 5 bap'ai and 3 bok'ai?

Answer:

  46 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the length in cm of 1 bap'ai; let k represent the length in cm of 1 bok'ai. Then we have ...

  12p +2k = 100

  10p +10k = 100

Subtracting the second equation from 5 times the first, we get ...

  5(12p +2k) -(10p +10k) = 5(100) -(100)

  50p = 400

  p = 8 . . . . cm

Then the second equation tells us ...

  10(8) +10k = 100

  10k = 20

  k = 2 . . . . cm

Then 5p+3k = 5(8) +3(2) = 46 cm.

The distance 5 bap'ai and 3 bok'ai is 46 cm.

A data set is normally distributed with a mean of 115 and a standard deviation of 23. What is the probability that a value in th
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The probability that a value in the data set is greater than or equal to 162

P(X≥162) = 0.0207

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>Step(i)</u>:-

Given mean of the Population = 115

Given standard deviation of the Population = 23

Let 'x' be the random variable of normal distribution

Let x = 162

Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{162-115}{23}

z = 2.043

<u><em>Step(ii)</em></u>:-

<em>The probability that a value in the data set is greater than or equal to 162</em>

<em>P(X>x) = P(Z>z) = P(Z> 2.043)</em>

P(X≥162) = P(Z≥2.043) = 1-P(Z≤ 2.043)

                                      =  1- ( 0.5 +A(2.043)

                                      =   1-0.5 -A(2.043)

                                      =    0.5 - 0.4793

                                      =  0.0207

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

<em>The probability that a value in the data set is greater than or equal to 162</em>

<em>P(X≥162) = 0.0207</em>

<em></em>
