(b) What is the probability that distance exceeds the mean distance by more than 2 standard deviations?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Flura [38]3 years ago

Answer:

>0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

This probably refers to a normal distribution. In a normal distribution, according to the empirical rule,

68% of observed data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean

95% falls within 2 standard deviations of the mean

99.7% falls within 3 standard deviations of the mean

In this case, the observed data is distance and the average figure for all observed distances is the mean distance.

So, the probability that a/any distance observed exceeds the mean distance by more than 2 standard deviations is >95%

In other words, the probability is >0.95

There are two colored marbles and one white marble in a box. Julie mixes the marbles and then Sam draws two marbles at random wi
tino4ka555 [31]
At first there are three marbles for Sam to pick from. the possibility of drawing a colored marble is 2/3. if Sam picks one of the colored marbles, the possibility of therefore (if he'd drawn the colored marble) drawing the second colored marble is 1/2. for the possibility of those happening consequently, we have to multiply the possibilities. 2/3 * 1/2 is 2/6 is 1/3. which means Sam wins in 33.333...% cases. Julie has a better chance of winning.

adding a white marble would change the possibilities to 1/2 and 1/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 = 16.7% cases, which is even less fair.

adding a colored marble would change the possibilities to 3/4 and 2/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 3/4 * 2/3 = 6/12 = 50% cases, which finally makes the game fair.

Find the rule and the graph of the function whose graph can be obtained by performing the translation 3 units left and 2 units d
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

 1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above:

f(x)=x³ (This is the simplest form. We need to translate it 3 units left and 2 units down)

2. If you take the parent function and make y=f(x+3), then you have:

y=f(x+3)=(x+3)^{3} (The function is shifted 3 units left on the x-axis).

3. Then you if you make y=f(x+3)-2, as following, you obtain:

y=f(x+3)-2=(x+3)^{3}-2  (The function is shifted 2 units down on the y-axis).

4. Therefore, that is how you obtain the final function.

The answer is the graph shown in the option a.

While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top o
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

      = 150 × 1.1106

     = 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
