A major cab company in Chicago has computed its mean fare from O'Hare Airport to the Drake Hotel to be $28.75 , with a standard

deviation of $4.44. Based on this information, complete the following statements about the distribution of the company's fares from O'Hare Airport to the Drake Hotel.
a. According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least ____% ( 56% or 75% or 84% or 89%) of the fares lie between 20.17 dollars and 37.13 dollars.
b. According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 84% of the fares lie between ____ dollars and_____ dollars . (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately 99.7% of the fares lie between ___ dollars and ___ dollars .
d. Suppose that the distribution is bell-shaped. According to the empirical rule, approximately____ (68% or 75% or 95% or 99.7%) of the fares lie between 20.17 dollars and 37.13 dollars.

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given choices:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using chebyshev's theorem :

\to P(|(x-\mu)|\leq k \sigma)\geq 1- \frac{1}{k^2}\\\\here \\ \to \mu=28.75\\\\ \to \sigma=4.44

In point a)  

\to |(x-\mu)|= |20.17-28.75|=8.58 and \sigma=4.44 \\\\so, \\k= \frac{ |(x-\mu)| }{\sigma}

  = \frac{8.58}{4.44} \\\\ =1.9 \\\\ =2

value= (1- \frac{1}{k^2}) \times 100 \% =75\%

In point b)

\to (1- \frac{1}{k^2}) \times 100 \% =84\% \\\\\to (1- \frac{1}{k^2})=0.84 \\\\\to \frac{1}{k^2} =0.16 \\\\\to \frac{1}{k}=0.4\\\\ \to k=2.5 \\\\\to |(x-\mu)| \leq k \sigma  \\\\= |(x-\mu)|\leq 2.5 \times 4.44  \\\\  = |(x-\mu)|\leq 1.11 \\\\ =  (28.75\pm 11.1) \\\\\to \text{fares lies between}(17.65,39.85)

In point c)

\to 99.7 \% \\ lie \ between=28.75 \pm z(.03)\times \sigma \\\\ =28.75\pm 2.97 \times 4.44\\\\=(28.75\pm 13.1)\\\\=(15.65,41.85)\\

In point d)

using standard normal variate

x=20.17\\\\  z=-2 \\\\x=37.13\\\\ z=2\\\\\to P(20.17

Given: f(x) = 3x-7, g(x)=2x2 -3x+1, h(x)=4x+1, k(x) =-x2+3 Find: k(x) +g(x)​
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

k(x) + g(x) = x² - 3x + 4

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Alg I</u>

  • Combining like terms

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

f(x) = 3x - 7

g(x) = 2x² - 3x + 1

h(x) = 4x + 1

k(x) = -x² + 3

<u>Step 2: Find k(x) + g(x)</u>

  1. Substitute:                              k(x) + g(x) = -x² + 3 + 2x² - 3x + 1
  2. Combine like terms (x²):        k(x) + g(x) = x² + 3 - 3x + 1
  3. Combine like terms (Z):         k(x) + g(x) = x² - 3x + 4
