The times required for a delivery firm to transport a package from one business address to another in the same metropolitan area

is normally distributed with a mean of 3.8 hours and a standard deviation of 0.8 hours. Suppose the delivery firm wants to determine the time by which 55% of all deliveries would be made. Which of the following density function diagrams best depicts this problem.
What is the probability a single delivery would take more than 4 hours? What is the z value corresponding to the interval boundary?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since; the density function diagrams were not included in the question; we will be unable to determine the  best which depicts this problem.

However;

Let use X to represent the time required for the delivery.

Then X~N(3.8 ,0.8)

i.e

E(x) = 3.8

s.d(x) = 0.8

NOW; P(x>4) = P(X-3.8/0.8 > 4-3.8/0.8)

= P(Z > 0.25)

= 1-P(Z < 0.25)

=1 - Φ (0.25)

= 1 - 0.5987  ( from Normal table  Φ (0.25) = 0.5987 )

= 0.4013

Thus;  the probability a single delivery would take more than 4 hours is 0.4013

What is the z value corresponding to the interval boundary?

The z value is calculated as:

z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}

z = \dfrac{4- 3.8}{0.8}

z = 0.25

The population of a town increases at a rate of 5% every year. The population of this town was 10,400 in 2017. What will the pop
galben [10]

Answer:

The population of the town in 2020  will approx. be 12,039.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial population in the year 2017 = 10,400

Increase in population every yea r  =  5%

Now, 5% of 10, 400 = \frac{5}{100} \times 10, 400 = 520

Hence, the population in the year 2018 = 10,400 + 520 = 10,920

Now, in the year 2019

5% of 10, 920 = \frac{5}{100} \times 10, 920 = 546

Hence, the population in the year 2019 = 10,920 + 546 = 11,466

Now, in the year 2020

5% of 11,466 = \frac{5}{100} \times 11,466 = 573.3

or, the population in the year 2020 = 11,466  + 573.3 = 12,039.3

The population of the town in 2020  will approx. be 12,039.
