The penguins currently living on an island are of two types, Chinstrap penguins and Gentoo penguins. The range of the heights of

the Chinstrap penguins on the island is 13.2 centimeters, and the range of the heights of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 15.4 centimeters.
Which of the following statements individually provide(s) sufficient additional information to determine the range of the heights of all the penguins on the island?

Indicate all such statements.

A The tallest Gentoo penguin on the island is 5.8 centimeters taller than the tallest Chinstrap penguin on the island.
B The median height of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 1.1 centimeters greater than the median height of the Chinstrap penguins on the island.
C The average (arithmetic mean) height of the Gentoo penguins on the island is 4.6 centimeters greater than the average height of the Chinstrap penguins on the island.

Answer:

The answer is "Option A"

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the range difference to calculate the maximum and minimum value.

The range of the chinstrap penguins are:  

R(c) = Max(c) - Min(c) = 13.2

The range of the Gentoo penguins are:

 R(g) = Max(g) - Min(g) = 15.4

For point A:

Max(c) = x\\\\Max(g) = x + 5.8\\\\R(c) = x - Min(c) = 13.2 \to  x = 13.2 + Min(c)\\\\R(g) = x + 5.8 - Min(g) = 15.4 \to  x = 9.6 + Min(g)

equate both of them

13.2 + Min(c) = 9.6 + Min(g)Min(g) - Min(c) = 3.6

It indicates that Min(c) surpasses Min(g), whereas Max(g) exceeds Max (c).

Therefore, the Max is picked for g for all penguins and the minimum is picked for c.    

Range of all penguins = Max(g) - Min(c) = x + 5.8 - x + 13.2 = 19

Therefore, it will be determined as the option.

For point B:

In estimating the range the median height cannot help.

For point C:

In order to calculate the variety, the connection between both the mean height cannot be sued.

How many seconds are there in a month of 30 days express it in scientific notation​
Evgesh-ka [11]
Answer: 2.592 x 10^6 seconds

Explanation:

There are 3600s in 1 hr

And 24hrs in 1 day which mean

There are 3600 x 24 = 86400s in 1 day

And one month = 30 days

86400 x 30 = 2, 592, 000s in 1 month

Write in scientific notation:

2, 592, 000 = 2.592 x 10^6

A population has a mean of 300 and a standard deviation of 40. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and is used to estimate
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

a: 0.9544 9 within 8 units)

b: 0.9940

Step-by-step explanation:

We have µ = 300 and σ = 40.  The sample size, n = 100.  

For the sample to be within 8 units of the population mean, we would have sample values of 292 and 308, so we want to find:

P(292 < x < 308).

We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values using the given data.  See attached photo 1 for the calculation of these scores.

We have P(292 < x < 308) = 0.9544

Next we want the probability of the sample mean to be within 11 units of the population mean, so we want the values from 289 to 311.  We want to find

P(289 < x < 311)

We need to find the z-scores that correspond to these values.  See photo 2 for the calculation of these scores.

We have P(289 < x < 311) = 0.9940
