From the given ordered pair representing Jacinda's progress, her speed is equal to 10 miles per hour. Letting x be the time it takes for Jacinda to catch up with Raj, the total distance Raj would travel is
1.5 + 4.5x
and Jacinda's total distance is 10x. Mathematically,
1.5 + 4.5x = 10x
The value of x from the equation is 0.27 hours. Therefore, Jacinda needs to run 2.7 miles to catch up with Raj.
Answer:
The percent of the area under the density curve where
is more that 3 is 25 %.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the density curve is a linear function, the area under the curve can be calculated by the geometric formula for a triangle, defined by the following expression:
(1)
Where:
- Area, in square units.
- Base of the triangle, in units.
- Height of the triangle, in units.
The percent of the area is the ratio of triangle areas under the density curve multiplied by 100 per cent, that is:


The percent of the area under the density curve where
is more that 3 is 25 %.
Answer: 12 9/10 and 10 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
5 8/10 plus 7 1/10 equals 12 9/10
8 5/8 plus 2 2/8 equals 10 7/8
Answer:
a) 40.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time of less than 19.5 hours.
b) 34.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time between 20 hours and 22 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:

a)Less than 19.5 hours?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 19.5. So



has a pvalue of 0.4013.
40.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time of less than 19.5 hours.
b)Between 20 hours and 22 hours?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 22 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So
X = 22



has a pvalue of 0.8413
X = 20



has a pvalue of 0.5
0.8413 - 0.5 = 0.3413
34.13% probability that a laptop computer can be assembled at this plant in a period of time between 20 hours and 22 hours.
