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

Hey there!

Step By Step:

Well so we know that 12 is about half of an 25. So what we are gonna do is to buy 3 of 12$ and 2 of 25$.

3x12=36 and 2x25=50.

With adding those two last numbers, you’ll get $86.

Graph would be down below.

Hope it helps :D
