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

The sum of exterior angles in total: 360 degrees

6th angle = 78+50+89+37+65= 319
Then 360-319= 41 degrees

Evan is thinking of a number that contains the digit 2. The digit 2 in Evan's number has 10 times the value of the digit 2 in th
Len [333]

Answer:

200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The number Evan could be thinking about is 200,000. I got this number because the value of the digit 2 in the number 328,907 is 20,000. Also, the number Evan is thinking about is 10 times the value of 20,000. So, I did 20,000 times 10 and got 200,000.
