Carly commutes to work, and her commute time is dependent on the weather. When the weather is good, the distribution of her comm

ute time is approximately normal with mean 20 minutes and standard deviation 2 minutes. When the weather is not good, the distribution of her commute times is approximately normal with mean 30 minutes and standard deviation 4 minutes. Suppose the probability that the weather will be good tomorrow is 0.9. What is the probability that Carly's commute time tomorrow will be greater than 25 minutes?

We are given with
x1 = 20 min
s1 = 2 min

x2 = 30 min
s2 = 4 min

p = 0.9
Condition (x > 25)

We need to get the t-value between the two means and comparing it wit the t-value for the time of 25 minutes given that there is a 90% probability that the weather will be good. Simply use the t-test formula and use the t-test table to get the probability.

Answer:

0.950

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 25 minute when the weather is good

This is writtesn as P( x > A), where A represents a numerical value or a condition.

Substituting the value of A, we get -

P( x > 25)

Here mean = 20 and standard deviation = 2

Now we will find the z value for give x value -

As we know -

z = (x - u) / sigma

Substituting the available values , we get -

A =  (25-20) / 2 =  2.5 \\\\

Now, probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 25 minute when the weather is good is equal to probability value as compared to the corresponding z values

Thus, probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 25 minute when the weather is good = 0.0062

b) Probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 25 minute when the weather is not good

z = (x - u) / sigma

Substituting the available values , we get -

A =  (25-30) / 4 =  -1.25 \\\\

Now, probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 30 minute when the weather is good is equal to probability value as compared to the corresponding z values

Thus, probability that the commute time of Carly is greater than 25 minute when the weather is good = 0.0062

P(x > 25) \\= P( z > (25-30) / 4) \\= P(z > -1.25) \\= 0.8944

Final Probability -

P( x > 25) \\= P( x > 25, weather good) + P( x > 25 , weather not good) \\= P( x > 25) \\= (0.0062)(0.9) + (0.8944)(0.10) \\= 0.0950

Answer:

4.  3 units

5. Triangle  

6.  (0,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4. The distance between the x axis and the point (8,3) is 3 units

5. Triangle  will be formed if the points A(-3, 0), B (0,3) and C (3,0) are joined together

6. Since the point lie on the y-axis, its x co-ordinate will be zero and the point will be (0,2)

A circular swimming pool has diameter 60 feet and is centered in a fenced-in square region measuring 80 feet by 80 feet. a concr
borishaifa [10]
If I read the question correctly, the information about the 80x80 fencing and the grass region are all irrelevant information. 

In order to find the area of the side walk we are going to use the formula A=pi(r^2) where r = the radius. The diameter of the pool is 60 feet and the the sidewalk is 5 feet bigger all around meaning we had 5 feet to both sides of this 60 feet giving you an overall diameter of 70 feet (or 60 + 5*2). To find the radius take half of the diameter. 70/2 = 35. 

Now we plug in 35 to the equation. A = Pi(35^2) = 1225pi. Leave your answer like this as we are not finished and will need to round at the end for an accurate answer. This is NOT the end, that number is the area of the sidewalk AND the pool.

The sidewalk is not a full circle, just a border so we now have to find the area of the actual pool and subtract it from this 1225pi for the sidewalk's area. Same formula, Area = pi(r^2). The diameter of the pool is 60 meaning the radius is 30 (or 60/2). Plug into the equation, pi(30^2) = 900pi.

Now do 1225pi - 900pi to get 325pi. Break out your calculator and hit the approximation button. 325pi is approximately 1021.018 if rounded to 3 decimal places.

The area of the 5-foot wide sidewalk encircling the pool is approximately 1021.018 square feet.

Determine the intercepts of the line.
Ymorist [56]

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept is the value of x when y is 0

So you need to substitute:

0 = 4x + 7

-7 = 4x

-7/4 = x

(-7/4,0)

Similarly, the y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0

So:

y = 4x + 7

y = 4(0) + 7

y = 7

(0,7)
