Answer:

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}

Uniformly distributed over the interval 40 to 75 minutes.

This means that a = 40, b = 75

It is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

This means that we can use a = 45

What is the probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes?

P(X > 50) = \frac{75 - 50}{75 - 45} = 0.8333

0.8333 = 83.33% probability that the cycle time exceeds 50 minutes if it is known that the cycle time exceeds 45 minutes

A researcher at a large company has collected data on both the beginning salary and the current salary of 48 randomly selected e
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

a. 0.83

b. 44107.3

c. 2252.7

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The correlation coefficient is calculated as

byx=rSy/Sx

rSy=byx*Sx

⇒r=byx*Sx/Sy

Sy=standard deviation of y=standard deviation of current salary=15300

Sx=standard deviation of x=standard deviation of beginning salary=5970

byx=2.12

r=2.12*5970/15300

r=12656.4/15300

r=0.83

There is a strong positive correlation between current and beginning salary.

b)

Beginning salary=$22000

As

y^ =−2532.7 + 2.12x.

Current salary=-2532.7+2.12*beginning salary

Current salary=-2532.7+2.12*22000

Current salary=-2532.7+46640

Current salary=$44107.3

The predicted current salary of Mr. Joseph Keller is $44107.3.

c)

Residual=y-y^=Observed-Predicted

Observed Current Salary of Kathy Jones=40000

Beginning salary of Kathy Jones=19000

y^ =−2532.7 + 2.12x.

Predicted Current salary=-2532.7+2.12*beginning salary

Predicted Current salary=-2532.7+2.12*19000

Predicted Current salary=-2532.7+40280

Predicted Current salary=$37747.3

Residual=Observed Current Salary-Predicted Current salary

Residual=40000-27747.3

Residual=$2252.7

The residual for Ms. Jones is $2252.7.

The base radius of an ice cream cone is 3.5 cm and the slant height is 6.5 cm. What is the capacity of the ice cream cone and it
ella [17]
The formula of cone's capacity is V = (1 / 3) (pi x r x h)
we know that r = 3.5, we must find h, the slant height is H=6.5, applying pythagorean theorem  h ^2 = H^2, so h= sqrt (H^2 -  r^2)
h =  sqrt (6.5^2 - 3.5^2) = 5.47
 finally, V = (1 / 3)  (3.14 x 3.5 x 5.47) = 20.03 cm^3
 the surface are is A = pi x r x H = 71.43 cm^2
