Answer:

1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use similar ratios. 5/4=x/6. Use cross multiplication. 30=4x. Divide by 4 to get x by itself. x=7.5 THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER!! This is the entire side length. Subtract 6 from this to get x. 7.5-6=1.5. x=1.5

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

6 6+x

-------- = -----------

4 5

Using cross products

6*5 = 4 * (6+x)

30 = 24 + 4x

Subtract 24 from each side

30 -24 = 24+4x-24

6 = 4x

Divide each side by 4

6/4 = 4x/4

3/2 = x

A car painting company has determined that the painting time of cars is uniformly distributed between 25 and 105 minutes. What i

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

$P=\frac{5}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For a uniform distribution we have to:

$P (X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}$ for x∈ (a, b)

$P (X\leq x) =0}$ for $x\leq a$

$P (X\leq x) =1}$ for $x\geq b$

In this case we have to:

a = 25 min and b = 105 min

We want to find:

$P (40 \leq X \leq 65)$

Then

$P (x_1 \leq X \leq x_2) = P(X \leq x_2) - P(X \leq x_1)$

$P (x_1 \leq X \leq x_2)= \frac{x_2 -x_1}{b-a}$

In this case:

$x_2 = 65\\\\x_1=40$

Therefore:

$P (40 \leq X \leq 65)=\frac{65 -40}{105-25}$

$P (40 \leq X \leq 65)=\frac{25}{80}$

$P (40 \leq X \leq 65)=\frac{5}{16}$
