Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be a random variable representing the flight arrival time from Boston to New York.

For a uniform probability distribution, the notation is

X U(a, b) where a is the lowest value of x and b is the lowest value of x

The probability density function, f(x) = 1/(b - a)

Mean, µ = (a + b)/2

Standard deviation, σ = √(b - a)²/12

From the information given, the time difference in minutes is 9:57 - 9:07 = 50 minutes. Therefore,

a = 0

b = 50

µ = (0 + 50)/2 = 25

σ = √(50 - 0)²/12 = 14.43

b) converting to minutes, it is 9:30 - 9:07 = 23 minutes

the probability that a flight arrives late(later than 9:30 am) is expressed as P(x > 23)

f(x) = 1/(50) = 0.02

P(x > 23) = (50 - 23)0.02 = 0.54

Solve the following system of linear equations by graphing:<br> 2x + 2y = 10<br> 8x + 8y = 24
andriy [413]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x - 8y = -20

8x + 8y = 24

0 ≠ 4

2y = -2x + 10

y = -x + 5

8y = -8x + 24

y = -x + 3

Which statements about the graph of the function f(x) = -x - 4x + 2 are true? Select three options.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The option "The function has a positive y-intercept" is true because f(0) = 2, which is the y-intercept.

What is the frequency of the sinusoidal graph ?
disa [49]

Answer:

The frequency of the given sinusoidal graph is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The frequency of a sinusoidal graph is the number of cycles it completes in the interval 0 to 2π radians.

From the given sinusoidal graph it is noticed that the the graph complete its one cycle in the interval 0 to \frac{\pi}{2}.

If the complete its one cycle in \frac{\pi}{2}, then the number of cycles completed by the graph in the inteval 0 to 2π is

\frac{\pi}{2}\times frequency=2\pi

frequency=2\pi \times \frac{2}{\pi}

frequency=4

Therefore the frequency of the given sinusoidal graph is 4.
