A bee flies 6 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for 12 minutes, and then fli
AysviL [449]

Remark

You have to do a little subtracting and a little interpreting to get the answer. First you must assume that the bee travels in a straight line. This is math so we can assume this is true, although thousands would disagree.

Second you must assume that because it is loaded with nectar that it travels at a slower rate (not an unreasonable assumption).

Third you have to assume that the distance there is the same distance as coming back. Again this is math. We can make this assumption.

Find the travelling time.

The bee spends 12 minutes hunting down the nectar in the flowerbed. Since it was away from the hive for a total of 16 minutes, the travelling time is

16min - 12min = 4 min

Convert the Minutes to seconds.

1 minute = 60 seconds

4 minutes = 4*60 = 240 seconds.

Find the time each way.

The total time is 240 seconds, but it is not divided evenly.

Let the time there = t

Let the time back = 240 - t

The distances are the same.

r = 6 m/s

r1 = 4 m/s

t1 = t

t2 = 240 - t

dthere = dback

d = rate * time

6 m/s *t = 4 m/s (240 - t)      Remove the brackets on the right.

6 * t = 4*240 - 4t                  Combine the like terms on the right.

6t = 960 - 4t                         Add 4t to both sides

6t + 4t = 960 - 4t + 4t          Combine

10t = 960                              Divide both sides by 10

10t/10 = 960/10                    Do the division

t = 96                                    Time going to the flower bed

Find the distance

d = ?

r = 6 m/s

t = 96 second

d = r*t

d = 6 * 96 = 576 feet Answer

A data set lists weights​ (lb) of plastic discarded by households. The highest weight is 5.31 ​lb, the mean of all of the weight
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

a) The difference is of 3.222 lbs.

b) 1.64 standard deviations.

c) Z = 1.64

d) Not significant, as the z-score of 1.64 is between -2 and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The mean of all of the weights is x=2.088 ​lb, and the standard deviation of the weights is s=1.968 lb.

This means that \mu = 2.088, \sigma = 1.968

a. What is the difference between the weight of 5.31 lb and the mean of the​ weights?

This is X - \mu = 5.31 - 2.088 = 3.222

The difference is of 3.222 lbs.

b. How many standard deviations is that​ [the difference found in part​ (a)]?

This is the z-score. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5.31 - 2.088}{1.968}

Z = 1.64

1.64 standard deviations.

c. Convert the weight of 5.31 lb to a z score.

Z = 1.64, as found above.

d. If we consider weights that convert to z scores between −2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly​ high, is the weight of 5.31 lb​ significant?

Not significant, as the z-score of 1.64 is between -2 and 2.
