Answer:

Probability that a group of 4 Americans watch more than 400 hours of television per year is 0.3264.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a nationwide census is conducted and it is found that the mean number of hours of television watched per year by Americans is 350 with a standard deviation of 220.

A group of 4 Americans is selected.

Let \bar X = <u><em>sample mean number of hours of television watched per year</em></u>

The z score probability distribution for sample mean  is given by;

                             Z  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean = 350

            \sigma = standard deviation = 220

            n = sample of Americans = 4

Now, the probability that a group of 4 Americans watch more than 400 hours of television per year is given by = P(\bar X > 400 hours)

     

     P(\bar X > 400) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } > \frac{400-350}{\frac{220}{\sqrt{4} } } ) = P(Z > 0.45) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.45)

                                                        = 1 - 0.6736 = <u>0.3264</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.45 in the z table which has an area of 0.6736.

Hence, the probability that a group of 4 Americans watch more than 400 hours of television per year is 0.3264.

Answer:

  • table: 14, 16, 18
  • equation: P = 2n +12

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter values will be ...

rectangles . . . perimeter

  1 . . . 14

  2 . . . 16

  3 . . . 18

__

The perimeter of a figure is twice the sum of the length and width. Here, the length is a constant 6. The width is n, the number of rectangles. So, the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(6 +n) = 12 +2n

Your equation is ...

  P = 2n +12 . . . . . . . . perimeter P of figure with n rectangles.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may be expected to write the equation using y and x for the perimeter and the number of rectangles. That would be ...

  y = 2x +12 . . . . . . . . . perimeter y of figure with x rectangles
