Answer:

a) The graph of the probability density function for flight time is shown below.

b) 1/2

c) 0

d) 130 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's deal with the flight times in minutes instead of hours, and let T be the random variable that represents the flight time. T is uniformly distributed between 120 minutes and 140 minutes. The probability density function for T is given by

f(t)=\frac{1}{140-120}=\frac{1}{20} for t in [120, 140]

a) The graph of the probability density function for flight time is shown below.

Delta Airlines quotes a flight time of 125 minutes for its flights from Cincinnati to Tampa.

b) The probability that the flight will be no more than 5 minutes late is given by

P(T \leq 125 + 5) = P(T \leq 130) = \int\limits_{120}^{130}\frac{1}{20}dt = \frac{1}{20}(130-120)= \frac{1}{20}(10) = \frac{1}{2}  

c) The probability that the flight will be more than 10 minutes late is given by

P(T \geq 125 + 10) = P(T \geq 135) = 0 because the probability density function is zero for t outside of [120, 140]

d) The expected flight time is given by E(T) = \frac{120+140}{2} = \frac{260}{2} = 130 minutes

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Select the points that are solutions to the system of inequalities. Select all that apply
liq [111]
Hello there!

the solutions to this system of inequalities are every point in the blue area. In order to figure out if each of those choices are solutions, just graph the points, and if they are in the blue, they are solutions.

Using this method, you get A and C as your answers because they are in the blue region.


I really hope this helps!
Best wishes :)

Christian's bill at a restaurant is $840.If Christian's wants to leave a 17% tip, how much tip should he leave?
Ilya [14]
Hey there!


840 = 100%

x = 17%

840/x = 100%/17%

(840/x) * x = (100/17) * x 840 = <span>5.8823529411765
</span>
<span>= 840/5.8823529411765 = 142.80

The correct answer to your question is option C.

The tip Christian should leave is $142.80.

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!

What number should be added to both sides of the equation to complete the square?<br> x2 - 6x = 5
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x = 5

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = 5 + 9, that is

(x - 3)² = 14
