The time needed to complete a final examination in a particular college course is normally distributed with a mean of 79 minutes

and a standard deviation of 8 minutes. Answer the following questions.
What is the probability of completing the exam in one hour or less (to 4 decimals)?


What is the probability that a student will complete the exam in more than 60 minutes but less than 75 minutes (to 4 decimals)?


Assume that the class has 60 students and that the examination period is 90 minutes in length. How many students do you expect will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time (to the nearest whole number)?

Answer: a) 0.0088

b) 0.2997

c)  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : \mu = 79 minutes

Standard deviation : \sigma = 8 minutes

The formula for z-score :

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) For x = 60 minutes

z=\dfrac{60-79}{8}=-2.375

The p-value =P(z\leq-2.375)=0.0087745\approx0.0088

b) For x = 75 minutes

z=\dfrac{75-79}{8}=-0.5

The p-value =P(60

=P(-0.5)-P(-2.375)=0.3085-0.0088=0.2997

c) For x = 90 minutes

z=\dfrac{90-79}{8}=1.375

The p-value =P(z>1.375)=1-P(z

=1-0.9154342=0.0845658

If the number of students in the class = 60 .

Then , the number of students will be unable to complete the exam in the allotted time =0.0845658\times60=5.073948\approx5

Which equation does NOT represent a proportional relationship between two variables with the constant of proportinality of? 1/2
Dimas [21]

Answer:

(D) y=x+\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Two variables x and y are proportionally related  if they can be written in the form y=kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

From the given options, if k=\frac{1}{2}

(B)y=\frac{1}{2}x is of the form y=kx

(C)y=\frac{3}{6}x is of the form y=kx with k=\frac{1}{2} as \frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2} in its lowest form.

(C)y=0.5x is of the form y=kx with k=\frac{1}{2} as 0.5=\frac{1}{2} in fractional form.

On the Contrary,

In Option D, y=x+\frac{1}{2} does not represent a proportional relationship between x and y. The constant of proportion is supposed to be a product of x.

On monday ,jan made wgitmddrawls of $25,$45 and $75 from her savings account .On the sane day, het twin sister lola made withdra
Dafna11 [192]
Part (a):
We will assume that the total amount is Jan's saving account is "m"
Now, "withdrawal" means that she took money from her account, which means that the amount of money in her account decreased by the amount she withdrew.
Sum of negative integers to show her withdrawals = -25$ - 45$ - 75$
Amount of money remaining in her account = m - 145$
The amount of money Jan withdrew = 25$ + 45$ + 75$ = 145$

Part (b):
We will assume that the total amount is Lola's saving account is "n"
Now, "withdrawal" means that she took money from her account, which means that the amount of money in her account decreased by the amount she withdrew.
Sum of negative integers to show her withdrawals = -35$ - 55$ - 65$
Amount of money remaining in her account = n - 155$
The amount of money Lola withdrew = 35$ + 55$ + 65$ = 155$
