Answer:
(A) 0.125 probability
(B) 0.625 probability
(C) 660 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance driven by a truck driver daily, falls between 300miles and 700miles and follows a uniform distribution.
(A) The probability that the truck driver goes more than 650 miles a day is:
[700 - 650] / [700 - 300] = 50/400 = 0.125
(B) The probability that the truck driver goes between 400 and 650 miles a day is:
[650 - 400] / [700 - 300] = 250/400 = 0.625
(C) The minimum number of miles the truck driver travels on the furthest 10% of days is given thus:
10% of 400 = 40
Subtract this from the farthest distance;
700miles - 40miles = 660miles
Now that we’ve learned how to solve word problems involving the sum of consecutive integers, let’s narrow it down and this time, focus on word problems that only involve finding the sum of consecutive even integers.
But before we start delving into word problems, it’s important that we have a good understanding of what even integers, as well as consecutive even integers, are.
Even Integers
We know that even numbers are integers that can be divided exactly or evenly by 22. Thus, the general form of the even integer nn, is n = 2kn=2k, where kk is also an integer.
In other words, since even numbers are the multiples of 22, we can represent an even integer nn by 2k2k, where kk is also an integer. So if we have the even integers 1010 and 1616,
Answer:
The probability is 0.9211
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call K the event that the student know the answer, G the event that the student guess the answer and C the event that the answer is correct.
So, the probability P(K/C) that a student knows the answer to a question, given that she answered it correctly is:
P(K/C)=P(K∩C)/P(C)
Where P(C) = P(K∩C) + P(G∩C)
Then, the probability P(K∩C) that the student know the answer and it is correct is:
P(K∩C) = 0.7
On the other hand, the probability P(G∩C) that the student guess the answer and it is correct is:
P(G∩C) = 0.3*0.2 = 0.06
Because, 0.3 is the probability that the student guess the answer and 0.2 is the probability that the answer is correct given that the student guess the answer.
Therefore, The probability P(C) that the answer is correct is:
P(C) = 0.7 + 0.06 = 0.76
Finally, P(K/C) is:
P(K/C) = 0.7/0.76 = 0.9211
Answer: a.This is the average number of days the house stayed on the market before being sold for $150,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: f(p) be the average number of days a house stays on the market before being sold for price p in $1,000s.
To find the meaning f(150),
here p= 150 which means f(150) is the average number of days a house stays on the market before being sold for price 150 in $1,000s.
And 150 in $ 1,000= $150,000
Therefore, f(150) is the average number of days a house stays on the market before being sold for price $150,000.
Let's say the ratio is 3:4. It could be written as 3/4
