Let X denote the number of flaws along a 100-m reel of magnetic tape (an integer-valued variable). Suppose Zdenote the number of
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

a) P(20 \leq X \leq 30) = P(20-0.5 \leq X \leq 30+0.5)

P(19.5 \leq X \leq 30.5) = P(\frac{19.5-25}{5} \leq Z \leq \frac{30.5 -25}{5})=P(-1.1 \leq Z \leq 1.1)

And we can find this probability like this:

P(-1.1 \leq Z \leq 1.1)= P(Z\leq 1.1) -P(Z\leq -1.1) = 0.864-0.136= 0.728

b) P(X \leq 30)= P(X

And using the z score we got:

P(X

c) P(X

And if we use the continuity correction we got:

P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Continuity correction means that we need to add and subtract 0.5 before standardizing the value specified.

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(25,5)  

Where \mu=25 and \sigma=5

Part a

For this case we want to find this probability:

P(20 \leq X \leq 30) = P(20-0.5 \leq X \leq 30+0.5)

And if we use the z score given by:

z =\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We got this:

P(19.5 \leq X \leq 30.5) = P(\frac{19.5-25}{5} \leq Z \leq \frac{30.5 -25}{5})=P(-1.1 \leq Z \leq 1.1)

And we can find this probability like this:

P(-1.1 \leq Z \leq 1.1)= P(Z\leq 1.1) -P(Z\leq -1.1) = 0.864-0.136= 0.728

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \leq 30)

And if we use the continuity correction we got:

P(X \leq 30)= P(X

And using the z score we got:

P(X

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

P(X

And if we use the continuity correction we got:

P(X

The Punic Wars began in 264 B.C. and ended in 146 B.C. How long did the Punic Wars last??
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The first two wars were long—23 years and 17 years, separated by an interval of 23 years. The third war lasted nearly three years. It started 52 years after the end of the second war. All three wars were won by Rome, which subsequently emerged as the greatest military power in the Mediterranean Sea.

6. Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence of the height of the ball on the 10th bounce.First bounce: 54 inchescom
Nat2105 [25]

The height of the ball initially is 54 inches. The common ratio has been provided which is 0.750.

The explicit formular for the geometric sequence is shown as;

\begin{gathered} ar^{n-1} \\ \text{Where a is the first term in the sequence,} \\ r\text{ is the common ratio betw}een\text{ every successive term} \\ \text{And n is the nth term} \\ \text{The explicit formular for the height of the ball on the 10th bounce is;} \\ ar^{n-1} \\ 54\times(0.750)^{10-1} \\ 54\times(0.750)^9 \\ 54\times0.07508468\ldots \\ 4.0545 \end{gathered}

The explicit formula is shown as;

54 x (0.750)^9

The rest is simply to solve for the height on the 10th bounce
