A grocery stores studies how long it takes customers to get through the speed check lane. They assume that if it takes more than

10 minutes, the customer will be upset. Find the probability that a randomly selected customer takes more than 10 minutes if the average is 7.45 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.52 minutes.

Answer:

4.65% probability that a randomly selected customer takes more than 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 7.45, \sigma = 1.52

Probability that a customer takes more than 10 minutes:

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 10. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{10 - 7.45}{1.52}

Z = 1.68

Z = 1.68 has a pvalue of 0.9535

1 - 0.9535 = 0.0465

4.65% probability that a randomly selected customer takes more than 10 minutes

The volume of a rectangular box is (x3 - 7x2 - 9x + 63) cubic units. Determine the dimensions of the rectangular box by factorin
Shalnov [3]
Hello,
well done.
As x^3-7x²-9x+63=(x-3)(x+3)(x-7) we must have x>3 and x>-3 and x>7 thus x>7

Explanations:
x^3-7x²-9x+63=x^3-9x+(-7x²+63)=x(x²-9)-7(x²-9)=(x²-9)(x-7)=(x+3)(x-3)(x-7)

Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form: 5y – 3x + 20 = 0 ​
Arturiano [62]

Slope intercept form is y = mx+ b

So in order to turn 5y-3x + 20 = 0 into Slope intercept form, all we need to do is solve for y!

Let's do it!

  • add 3x to the right side of the equation

<u>5y - 3x + 20 = 0</u>

<u>5y + 20 = 3x </u>

  • move 20 to the right side

<u>5y = 3x - 20 </u>

  • Divide both sides of the equation by 5

y = 3/5x - 4

This is our answer!

I hope I helped! Leave a comment if you have any questions or concerns
