Answer:

<u>80 buses</u> will be required for 1120 soldiers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of seats on One side = 12 seats.

Now Given:

five seats are reserved for equipment.

So we can say that;

Number of seats used by soldiers = $12-5=7\ seats$

Number of soldiers on Each seat =2

So we will now find number of soldiers on each bus.

number of soldiers on each bus is equal to Number of seats used by soldiers multiplied by Number of soldiers on Each seat.

framing in equation form we get;

number of soldiers on each bus = $7\times2 = 14\ soldiers$

Now we know that;

For 14 soldiers = 1 bus

So 1120 soldiers = Number of buses required for 1120 soldiers.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Number of buses required for 1120 soldiers = $\frac{1120}{14} =80$

Hence <u>80 buses</u> will be required for 1120 soldiers.

What is the common difference of the arithmetic sequence graphed below?

galben [10]

I think it’s -0.75. The x coordinate represents the term number so y would show the pattern which is -3.75, -4.5, -5.25, -6, -6.75, -7.5, -8.25, -9. To get to the next number, each term is being decreased by 0.75. Hope this helps :)

A random variable x follows a normal distribution with mean d and standard deviation o=2. It is known that x is less than 5 abou

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The mean of this distribution is approximately 3.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how to solve this problem using a normal distribution table.

Let $z$ be the

$\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ .

In this question, $x = 5$ and $\sigma = 2$ . The equation becomes

$\displaystyle z = \frac{5 - \mu}{2}$ .

To solve for $\mu$ , the mean of this distribution, the only thing that needs to be found is the value of $z$ . Since

The problem stated that $P(X \le 5) = 69.85\% = 0.6985$ . Hence, $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ .

The problem is that the normal distribution tables list only the value of $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ for $z \ge 0$ . To estimate $z$ from $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ , it would be necessary to find the appropriate

Since $P(Z \le z) = 0.6985$ and is greater than $P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ , $z > 0$ . As a result, $P(Z \le z)$ can be written as the sum of $P(Z < 0)$ and $P(0 \le Z \le z)$ . Besides, $P(Z < 0) = P(Z \le 0) = 0.50$ . As a result:

$\begin{aligned}&P(Z \le z)\\ &= P(Z < 0) + P(0 \le Z \le z) \\ &= 0.50 + P(0 \le Z \le z)\end{aligned}$ .

Therefore:

$\begin{aligned}&P(0 \le Z \le z) \\ &= P(Z \le z) - 0.50 \\&= 0.6985 - 0.50 \\&=0.1985 \end{aligned}$ .

Lookup $0.1985$ on a normal distribution table. The corresponding $z$ -score is $0.52$ . (In other words, $P(0 \le Z \le 0.52) = 0.1985$ .)

Given that

$z = 0.52$ ,
$x =5$ , and
$\sigma = 2$ ,

Solve the equation $\displaystyle z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ for the mean, $\mu$ :

$\displaystyle 0.52 = \frac{5 - \mu}{2}$ .

$\mu = 5 - 2 \times 0.52 = 3.96$ .

I can’t figure this out, any help?

if the spinner is fair , it will land on green for 60 times , there are 24% chances for the spinner to land on purple ,For 1000 spins it will land 150 times on blue

<h3>What is Probability ?</h3>

Probability can be defined as the study to predict the likelihood of an event.

It has a range from 0 to 1.

Probability if the spinner is fair is 1/5 for each colour.

As it is spun 300 times

(1/5) * 300 = 60 times

So if the spinner is fair , it will land on green for 60 times.

(b) The probability of landing on purple theoretically is 60times , 20 % chances

but it can be seen from the data provided that for 300 spins , the spinner landed for 72 times

which is 24% , i.e. there are 24% chances for the spinner to land on purple.

(c)Theoretically blue has 20% chances 200 times , But it is seen in the data obtained that

for 300 spins the spinner is landing on blue for 45 times.

For 1000 spins it will land 1000*45/300 = 150 times.
