Answer:

62.5 or 63

Step-by-step explanation:

the length of the side adjacent to the angle is given (6), and the length of the hypotenuse is also given (13)

the trig function that deals with adjacent and hypotenuse lengths is cosine.

cos(x) = adj/hyp

cos(x) = 6/13

x = 62.5

How many commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time of Chicago commuters? We want 95% confidence that

zimovet [89]

Answer:

61 commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time of Chicago commuters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : We want 95% confidence that the sample mean is within 3 minutes of the population mean, and the population standard deviation is known to be 12 minutes.

To find : How many commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time of Chicago commuters?

Solution :

At 95% confidence the z-value is z=1.96

The sample mean is within 3 minutes of the population mean i.e. margin of error is E=3 minutes

The population standard deviation is s=12 minutes

n is the number of sample

The formula of margin of error is given by,

$E=\frac{s\times z}{\sqrt{n}}$

Substitute the value in the formula,

$3=\frac{12\times 1.96}{\sqrt{n}}$

$3=\frac{23.52}{\sqrt{n}}$

$\sqrt{n}=\frac{23.52}{3}$

$\sqrt{n}=7.84$

Squaring both side,

$n=61.4656$

Therefore, 61 commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time of Chicago commuters.

According to the National Telecommunication and Information Administration, 56.5% of U.S. households owned a computer in 2001. W

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming a binomial distribution for the number of U.S. households that owned a computer in 2001. The formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(X = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

p = probability of success

q = probability of failure

n = number of sample

From the information given,

p = 56.5% = 56.5/190 = 0.565

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.565 = 0.435

n = 3

We want to determine P(x greater than or equal to 1). This is also expressed as

1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 1)

P(x lesser than or equal to 1) = P(x = 0) + P(x =1)

P(x = 0) = 3C0 × 0.435^(3 - 0) × 0.565^0 = 0.082

P(x = 1) = 3C1 × 0.435^(3 - 1) × 0.565^1 = 0.32

P(x greater than or equal to 1) = 0.082 + 0.32 = 0.402

If cp=rs 400, loss=10% find sp<br>

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

cp = rs 400

loss = 10%

Then SP = 400 - 10% of 400

= 400 - 40

= 360

Therefore SP = Rs. 360
