A particular employee arrives at work sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. Based on past experience the company has determin

ed that the employee is equally likely to arrive at any time between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. Find the probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m. Round your answer to four decimal places, if necessary.

Answer:

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b, and the probability of finding a value between c and d is given by:

P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}

A particular employee arrives at work sometime between 8:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m.

We can consider 8 am = 0, and 8:30 am  = 30, so a = 0, b = 30

Find the probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

Between 15 and 25, so:

P(15 \leq X \leq 25) = \frac{25 - 15}{30 - 0} = 0.3333

0.3333 = 33.33% probability that the employee will arrive between 8:15 a.m. and 8:25 a.m.

The product of two rational numbers is 2/5 , if one of them is -8/25, find the other.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

x=-5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be  x and y

     x.y=2/5    (The product of two rational numbers is 2/5)

if  one of the number is  -8/25

x.(-8/25)=2/5

(Here Substituted the value of one of the number yoy may substitute the value -8/25 in place of x

x=(2/5) *(-25/8)    

x=-5/4

Marianna [84]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

The Honda Accord was named the best midsized car for resale value for by the Kelley Blue Book (Kelley Blue Book website). The file AutoResale contains mileage, age, and selling price for a sample of 33 Honda Accords. Click on the datafile logo to reference the data. The estimated regression equation is Selling price = 20385.25049 - 0.03739 Mileage - 686.33668 age. Round your answers to the nearest dollar. a. Estimate the selling price of a four-year-old Honda Accord with mileage of 40,000 miles.

answer :  ≈ $16144

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Determine the selling price of a four-year-old Honda Accord with mileage of </u><u>40,000</u><u> miles.</u>

Given data :

Age= 4 year, Mileage=40,000 miles

Hence the selling price

= 20385.25049 - 0.03739 Mileage - 686.33668 age

=  20385.25049 - 0.03739(40,000)  - 686.33668 ( 4 )

= $16144.32

A national survey of companies included a question that asked whether the company had at least one bilingual telephone operator.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The first option is correct. Option A is correct.

LCL = 0.270, and UCL = 0.397

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Step-by-step explanation:

The data for Y and N for the 90 companies is attached to this solution provided.

Y represents companies with at least 1 bilingual operator and N represents companies with no bilingual operator.

The number of Y in the data = 30

Hence, sample proportion of companies with at least one bilingual operator = (30/90) = 0.3333

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = 0.3333

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 80% confidence level for sample size of 90 is obtained from the z-tables.

Critical value = 1.280

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = sample proportion

n = sample size = 90

σₓ = √[0.3333×0.6667)/90] = 0.0496891568 = 0.04969

80% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.3333 ± (1.28 × 0.04969)

CI = 0.3333 ± 0.0636021207

80% CI = (0.2696978793, 0.3969021207)

80% Confidence interval = (0.270, 0.397)

Hope this Helps!!!
