Answer:

B.77.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean wage (μ) = $4.50

Standard deviation (σ) = $0.50

For nay given salary X, the z-score is given by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

For X = $3.75, the z-score is:

z=\frac{3.75-4.50}{0.50}\\z=-1.5

For X = $5.00, the z-score is:

z=\frac{5.00-4.50}{0.50}\\z=1

A z-score of -1.5 corresponds to the 6.68th percentile, while a score of 1 corresponds to the 84.13th percentile. Therefore, the percentage of workers getting paid between $3.75 and $5.00 an hour is:

P=84.13-6.68\\P=77.45\%

The answer is alternative B.77.4%

Find the number of ways of arranging the numbers
Doss [256]

First of all, note that all integers are either 0,1, or 2 modulo 3 (if you're not familiar with this terminology, it means that every integer is either a multiple of 3, or it is 1 or 2 away from a multiple of 3).

So, we can think of our numbers as

\begin{array}{c|c}x&x\mod 3\\0&0\\1&1\\2&2\\3&0\\4&1\\5&2\\6&0\\7&1\\8&2\\9&0\end{array}

In order to make sure that the sum of any three adjacent numbers is divisible by 3, we have to make sure that any group of 3 three adjacent numbers contains a 0, a 1 and a 2. This is possible only if we arrange our 9 numbers in 3 groups of 3 numbers containing 0,1 and 2 exactly once, repeating always the same pattern.

For example, we could arrange our numbers following the pattern

0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2

or

2,0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1

We have 3!=6 possible patterns. Suppose for example that we choose the pattern

0,1,2,0,1,2,0,1,2

One possible way of following this pattern would be the arrangement

3,1,2,6,4,5,9,7,8

In fact, we substituted every '0' with a multiple of 3 (3, 6 or 9), every '1' with a number 1 away from a multiple of 3 (1, 4 or 7) and every '2' with a number 2 away from a multiple of 3 (2, 5 or 8).

This means that, once we fix a patter, we have 3 choices for the first 3 slots, 2 choices for the next 3 slots, and the final slot will be fixed. So, we have

3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 = 216

possible ways of following a fixed pattern. Since the number of patterns was 6, we have

216\cdot 6 = 1296

possible arrangements.

What are the circumference and area of a circle with radius 7in. Round to the nearest tenth.
Natalka [10]

Circumference is 40 in and area is 150 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the circumference of the circle when radius = 7 in

Circumference = 2πr = 2 × 22/7 × 7 = 44 in ≈ 40 in

  • Step 2: Find the area of the circle.

Area = πr² = 22/7 × 7² = 154 in² ≈ 150 in²

83 random samples were selected from a normally distributed population and were found to have a mean of 32.1 and a standard devi
arlik [135]

Answer:

\frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{104.139} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{62.132}

4.525 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 7.602

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

2.127 \leq \sigma \leq 2.757

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=32.1 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=2.4 represent the sample standard deviation

n=83 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}

The degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=8-1=7

The confidence level is 0.90 or 90%, the value of \alpha=0.1 and \alpha/2 =0.05, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical values.  

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.05,82)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.95,82)". so for this case the critical values are:

\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=104.139

\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=62.132

The confidence interval is given by:

\frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{104.139} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(82)(2.4)^2}{62.132}

4.525 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 7.602

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

2.127 \leq \sigma \leq 2.757

Find the area of the figure shown. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

25.5in²

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a convex quadrilateral. A trapezoid has at least on pair of parallel sides. the parallel sides are called bases while the non parallel sides are called legs

Characteristics of a trapezoid

It has 4 vertices and edges

If both pairs of its opposite sides of a trapezoid are parallel, it becomes a parallelogram

Area of a trapezoid = (1/2)  x (sum of the lengths of the parallel sides) x height

1/2 x (6 + 11) x 3 = 25.5 in²

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero
