Assume that thermometer readings are normally distributed with a mean of 0 degrees C and a standard deviation of 1.00 degrees C.

A thermometer is randomly selected and tested. For the case below, draw a sketch, and find the probability of the reading. (The given values are in celsius degrees)
Between -1.42 and 1.61
The probability of getting a reading between -1.42 degrees C and 1.61 degreesC is_______ ( round to four decimal places as needed)

Answer:

The probability of getting a reading between -1.42 degree C and 1.61 degree C is 0.8685.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$Mean,\mu=0$ degree C

Standard deviation, $\sigma=1$ degree C

We have to find the probability of the reading between -1.42 and 1.61.

$P(-1.42$

$P(-1.42$

$P(-1.42$

Using the formula

$P(a$

$P(-1.42$

$P(-1.42$

Hence, the probability of getting a reading between -1.42 degree C and 1.61 degree C is 0.8685.

Answer:

The absolute change in the height of the water is 9.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$l =24in$ --- length

$w = 15in$ --- width

$h =12in$ --- height

$V_1 = 900in^3$ --- the volume removed

Required

The absolute change in the height of the water

First, calculate the base area (b):

$b = l * w$

$b =24in * 15in$

$b =360in^2$

The height of the water that was removed is:

<em /> $H = \frac{V_1}{b}$ <em> i.e. the volume of the water removed divided by the base area</em>

$H = \frac{900in^3}{360in^2}$

$H = \frac{900in}{360}$

$H = 2.5in$

The absolute change in height is:

$\triangle H = |h - H|$

$\triangle H = |12in - 2.5in|$

$\triangle H = |9.5in|$

$\triangle H = 9.5in$

Answer:

Proper Subsets = 1023

Step-by-step explanation:

Given $W= \{Hampton\ Hotels, Anytime\ Fitness, Subway, Jack\ in\ the\ Box, Supercuts, \\Jimmy\ Johns, Servpro, Denny's, Pizza\ Hut, 7-Eleven\}$

Required

Determine the proper subsets

Proper Subset (P) is calculated using;

$P = 2^n - 1$

Where

$n = number\ of\ elements$

In this case;

$n = 10$

So:

$P = 2^n - 1$

$P = 2^{10} - 1$

$P = 1024 - 1$

$P = 1023$

Hence;

<em>Proper Subsets = 1023</em>
