Please help answer statistics question? Statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are unif

ormally distributed between 50.0 and 52.0 minutes. Find the probability that a given class period runs LESS than 51.5 minutes.
Find the probability of selecting a class that runs less than 51.5 min.

The duration of the class is uniformly distributed with a minimum of 50.0 minutes and a maximum of 52.0 minutes. This means the random variable for class duration X has density function

f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{52.0-50.0}=\dfrac12&\text{for }50.0\le x\le52.0\\[1ex]0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

You're looking for the probability that the class runs less than 51.5 minutes, or \mathbb P(X, which is given by the integral

\displaystyle\mathbb P(X

92.96 as a fraction
nikklg [1K]
To change a decimal to a fraction you need to first place the decimal over 1. Next, for each number behind the decimal, you will multiply by a multiple of 10. Since there are 2 numbers behind the decimal, it's 100. Therefore, 
92.96 x 100 = 9296
1 x 100= 100


Your new fraction is 9296/100. Now we simplify it. I'm going by 2's so it may take a bit. 
Simplifying it twice by 2's your answer would be:

2324/25

A line passes through the points (0, -2) and (0, 5). Is it possible to write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form? ju
Feliz [49]
Consider what the slope of this line would be. Slope is rise/run; this line rises 7 (5 - (-2)) and runs 0 (0 - 0). This means that the slope would be 7/0. Dividing by zero is not possible, therefore, it cannot be written in slope-intercept form.

Evaluate the expression Arcsec(sqrt 2). Do not use your calculator to answer this question. Do not express answer in decimals.

Pi/4 radians  
You're looking for the angle that has a secant of sqrt(2). And since the secant is simply the reciprocal of the cosine, let's take a look at that.
 sqrt(2) = 1/x
 x*sqrt(2) = 1
 x = 1/sqrt(2)
 Let's multiply both numerator and denominator by sqrt(2), so
 x = sqrt(2)/2 
 And the value sqrt(2)/2 should be immediately obvious to you as a trig identity. Namely, that's the cosine of a 45 degree angle. Now for the issue of how to actually give you your answer. There's no need for decimals to express 45 degrees, so that caveat in the question doesn't make any sense unless you're measuring angles in radians. So let's convert 45 degrees to radians. A full circle has 360 degrees, or 2*pi radians. So:
 45 * (2*pi)/360 = 90*pi/360 = pi/4 
 So your answer is pi/4 radians.
