Answer:

0% probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be no more than 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 66 special orders daily

This means that \mu = 66. We have the mean during a time interval, which means that the number of special orders follow a Poisson distribution, which has \sigma = \sqrt{\mu} = \sqrt{66}

What is the probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be no more than 33?

Since the Poisson distribution, which is discrete, is approximated to the normal(which is continuous), we have to use continuity correction, and thus, this probability is P(X < 33 - 0.5) = P(X < 32.5), which is the p-value of Z when X = 32.5.

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

Z = \frac{32.5 - 66}{\sqrt{66}}

Z = -4.12

Z = -4.12 has a p-value of 0.

0% probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be no more than 33

Describe the relationship between the number of places a decimal point is moved to the left and the change in the value of the n
dimaraw [331]
For every decimal place you move a decimal through a number you can think of it as multiplying or dividing by ten. 

take for example 1000.0 
if you move the decimal to make this number 100.00 you divided it by ten 
if you move the decimal again to make 10.000 you divided ten again

but, if you make the number bigger, say 10000. then you have multiplyed by ten.

A satellite is 19,000 miles from the horizon of Earth. Earth’s radius is about 4,000 miles. Find the approximate distance the sa
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The approximate distance is 15416 miles....

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given:

A satellite is 19,000 miles from the horizon of earth.

The radius is 4,000 miles.

Lets say that BC =x

AO = OB = 4,000 miles

AC = 19,000 miles

The tangent from the external point forms right angle with the radius of the circle.

So in ΔABC

(OC)² = (AC)²+(OA)²

where OC = x+4000

AC = 19,000

OA = 4000

Therefore,

(x+4000)² = (19,000)² +(4,000)²

Take square root at both sides:

√(x+4000)²  = √(19,000)² +(4,000)²

x+4000  =√361000000+16000000

x+4000 = √377000000

x+4000 = 19416.48

x= 19416.48 - 4000

x = 15416.48

Therefore the approximate distance is 15416 miles....

2) A construction contractor used the equation 11.52=(1.44)8 to
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

2.88

Explanation:

If you break down the equation we see that 8 is the number of boxes and 1.44 is the price of each box. So if you wanted to change the equation the formula would be: (1.44)x = cost so if you wanted to figure out how much 2 boxes would be, you just plug in 2 for x and you get (1.44)2 = 2.88
