Rasek [7]

Answer:

0.6604

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a market research firm knows from historical data that telephone surveys have a 36% response rate.

Sample size of random sample = 280

We know for samples randomly drawn of large size sample proportion follows a normal distribution with mean= sample proportin and std error

= $\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }$

Substitute p = 0.36 and q = 1-0.36= 0.64

p follows N with mean = 0.36 and std dev = $\sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{\sqrt{280} } } \\=0.0287$

Using normal distribution values we can find\

$P(33.5p.c. < p < 39pc)\\= P(0.335$

A boat can travel at an average speed of 10 miles per hour in still water. Traveling with the current, it can travel 6 miles in

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer: The speed of the current is 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the speed of the boat is:

S = 10 mph.

When the boat travels with the current, the speed will be:

S = 10mph + x

where x = speed of the current.

When the boat travels against the current, the speed will be:

S = 10mph - x

Now, for a given amount of time T, when the boat travels with the current, it moves a distance of 6 miles.

Then we have the equation:

(10mph + x)*T = 6mi

And against the current, in the same time the boat moves 4 mi, then:

(10 mph - x)*T = 4mi

Then we have the system of equations:

(10mph + x)*T = 6mi

(10 mph - x)*T = 4mi

Now, we can take the quotient of these two equations and get:

((10mph + x)*T)/((10 mph - x)*T) = (6mi/4mi)

(10mph + x)/(10 mph - x) = 3/2

Now we can solve this for x.

(10mph + x) = (3/2)*(10 mph - x)

10mph + x = (3/2)*10mph - (3/2)*x

x + (3/2)*x = (3/2)*10mph - 10mph

(5/2)*x = (1/2)*10mph = 5mph

x = (2/5)*5mph = 2mph.

The speed of the current is 2 miles per hour.
