Researchers measured the data speeds for a particular smartphone carrier at 50 airports. The highest speed measured was 72.6 Mbp

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

a. 54.05 Mpbs.

b. 2.745... standard deviations.

c. The z-score is 2.745....

d. The carrier's highest data speed is significantly high.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The difference between the highest measured data speed and the mean is 72.6 - 18.55 = 54.05 Mbps.

b. The amount of standard deviations of 54.05 Mbps is equal to this value divided by the standard deviations, so we yield $\frac{54.05}{19.69} = 2.745...$ standard deviations.

c. The z-score is equal to the difference between the mean and a data point in standard deviations, so the z-score is 2.745....

d. 2.745... is not between -2 and 2, so the carrier's highest data speed is not insignificant - so it's significantly high.

A potato sorting machine produces 5 pounds of potatoes an average for the standard aviation is a half a pound assuming the weigh

mixas84 [53]

For a 95% confidence interval, the corresponding z-score is 1.96. Therefore the deviation will by 1.96*0.5 lbs = 0.98 lbs. Therefore, the confidence interval will be (5 - 0.98, 5 + 0.98), which is (4.02, 5.98). The weight range is from 4.02 lbs to 5.98 lbs.

A bag contains 10 red marbles, 15 yellow marbles and 5 green marbles. What is the probability of drawing a red or green marble f

Volgvan

Probability =

(number of ways it can come out the way you want)
divided by
(total number of ways it can come out).

Total number of ways to draw a marble = 30 (marbles in the bag).

Number of ways it can succeed = 15 (number of red or green ones)

Probability = 15/30 = 1/2 = 50% .
