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

disa [49]

Answer:

p value from chi square = 0.081

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sociologists say the percentage of the classic music lovers is about 5%. From the survey, we know that only 83 out of 2000 people listen to the classic music. Let denote the proportion of the classic music lovers. The hypotheses are H0: p=0.05 vs Ha: p≠0.05

p value = 0.09

Instead of this if we do chi square

H0: Proportion of music lovers is 5% and non music lovers is 95%

Ha: Proportions are not as per the estimate

(Two tailed chi square test)

Observed       83           1917       2000

Expected        100          1900     2000

O-E                  -17              17          0

chi square

(O-E)^2/E        2.89         0.1521     3.0421

df =1

p value from chi square = 0.081

Though p value is not exactly the same, the conclusion in both tests are the same

A soccer ball is kicked toward the goal. The height of the ball is modeled by the function h(t) = −16t2 + 48t where t equals the
zlopas [31]
1. The function h(t)=-16t^{2}+48t is a parabola of the form ax^{2}+bx. The the formula for the axis of symmetry of a parabola is x= \frac{-b}{2a}. We can infer from our function that a=-16 and b=48, so lets replace those values in our formula:
x= \frac{-b}{2a}
x= \frac{-48}{-2(16)}
x= \frac{-48}{-32}
x= \frac{3}{2}
x=1.5
We can conclude that to the left of the line of symmetry the ball is reaching its maximum height, and to the right of the line of symmetry the ball is falling.

2. Lets check how much time the ball takes to reach its maximum height and return to the ground. To do that we are going to set the height equal to zero:
0=-16t^{2}+48t
-16t(t-3)=0
t=0 or t-3=0
t=0 or t=3
From our previous point we know that the ball reaches its maximum time at t=1.5, which means that <span>it takes 1.5 seconds to reach the maximum height and 1.5 seconds to fall back to the ground.</span>

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

At the lying lemon used car company each salesperson makes $5.75 per hour and receives 6 1/2% commission on sales. Converting

6 1/2% to decimal, it becomes 6.5%

If a Salesperson worked for 8 hours, the amount that he would earn would be

8 × 5.75 = $46

If the salesperson sold a car for $9290, his commission would be

6.5/100 × 9290 = 0.065 × 9290 = $603.85

Total amount that the sales person would earn is

46+ 603.85 = $649.85
