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

What is the first step in describing what figure results when a given plane intersects a given three-dimensional figure
mafiozo [28]
There are three possible results when a plan intersects with a three-dimensional figure and these are:
a point
a line
a plane

The first step in describing the result is to determine first how the plane and the figure intersects.

the length of a rectangle is 5 meters more than the width. the perimeter is 26 meters. write and solve an equation to find the l
fredd [130]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If width =x

Length =x + 5

Perimeter =x+x+5+x+x+5

26=4x+10

16=4x

X=4

Therefore width =4

Length =9

What is the volume of this solid?<br><br> A. 1104<br> B. 132<br> C. 96<br> D. 276
statuscvo [17]

For this case we have that the volume of the figure is composed of the volume of a prism and the volume of a pyramid:

The volume of the prism is given by:

V = A_ {b} * h

Where:

A_ {b}: It is the area of the base

h: It's the height

Substituting:V = 6 * 6 * 6\\V = 216 \ units ^ 3

The volume of the pyramid is given by:

V = \frac {1} {3} * L ^ 2 * h

Where:

L ^ 2:It is the area of the base

h: It's the height

Substituting:

V = \frac {1} {3} * 6 ^ 2 * 5\\V = \frac {1} {3} * 36 * 5\\V = 60units ^ 3

We add and we have:

V = 276 \ units ^ 3

Pls pls pls pls help
artcher [175]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Reflection across the y-axis replaces each x coordinate with its opposite.

B. Rotation 90° CW does the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)

C. This is a translation left 2 units.

D. Rotation 90° CCW does the transformation (x, y) ⇒ (-y, x)

E. This is a translation left 7 and down 2.

__

In the attached graphs, we have identified a point that is a corresponding point on each figure. This is so you can see how the various transformations move it and the rest of the figure in relation to it. 90° arcs are shown so you can see the rotations more easily.

The figures are labeled and color coded in accordance with the problem statement.
