The time it takes glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase to convert aldehyde to carbolic acid follows a normal distribution wi

th a mean of 19 milliseconds and standard deviation of 4.04 milliseconds.
a) What is the probability that it will take glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase between 15 milliseconds and 20 milliseconds to convert aldehyde to carbolic acid?
b) What is the probability that it will take glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase more than 20 milliseconds to convert aldehyde to carbolic acid?
c) What is the probability that it will take glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase less than 15 milliseconds to convert aldehyde to carbolic acid?

For each probability, transform the normal random variable <em>X</em> with mean 19 and s.d. 4.04 to a standard normal random variable <em>Z</em> with mean 0 and s.d. 1, using the rule

<em>Z</em> = (<em>X</em> - 19) / 4.04

(a) Pr[15 ≤ <em>X</em> ≤ 20] = Pr[(15 - 19)/4.04 ≤ (<em>X</em> - 19)/4.04 ≤ (20 - 19)/4.04]

… ≈ Pr[-0.9901 ≤ <em>Z</em> ≤ 0.2475]

… ≈ Pr[<em>Z</em> ≤ 0.2475] - Pr[<em>Z</em> ≤ -0.9901]

(since <em>Z</em> is a continuous random variable)

… ≈ 0.4367

(b) Pr[<em>X</em> > 20] = Pr[(<em>X</em> - 19)/4.04 > (20 - 19)/4.04]

… ≈ Pr[<em>Z</em> > 0.2475]

… ≈ 1 - P[<em>Z</em> ≤ 0.2475]

(taking the complement probability)

… ≈ 0.4023

(c) Pr[<em>X</em> < 15] = 1 - Pr[15 ≤ <em>X</em> ≤ 20] - Pr[<em>X</em> > 20]

(also taking the complement)

… ≈ 0.1611

bezimeni [28]

The coordinate for the point M is (51/6, 13/6) if the point M on a segment with endpoints X (1, -2) and Y (10, 3) partitions the segment in a 5:1 ratio.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

We have a line segment: XY with end coordinates X(1, -2) and Y(10, 3)

The coordinate for the point M:

x = (1+50)/6 = 51/6

y = (-2+15)/6 =  13/6

Thus, the coordinate for the point M is (51/6, 13/6) if the point M on a segment with endpoints X (1, -2) and Y (10, 3) partitions the segment in a 5:1 ratio.

PLEASE HELP! A positive number is 1/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is five less than the square of the larger numbe
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The numbers are 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number , y= larger number.

As per given,

x=\dfrac{y}{3}   ...(i)

x+y=y^2-5       ...(ii)

Put value of x from (i) in (ii)

\dfrac{y}{3}+y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac43y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-4y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-9y+5y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y(y-3)+5(y-3)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-3)(3y+5)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=3 \ \ or\ y=\dfrac{-5}{3}

Since numbers are positive , so y=3 is correct.

And x will be 1  [from (i)]

Hence, the numbers are 1 and 3.
