The answer is 12.5 seconds.

48/5 = 120/x
x = 2.5
2.5 * 5 = 12.5

Answer:

12,5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find how many kilobytes do you download every seconds.

You simply divide 48 kilobyte / 5 seconds and you get 9,6 kB/s.

Now you know that your download speed is this you can find the amount of time needed for downloading 120 kilobytes.

You simply divide \frac{120 kilobytes}{9,6 kilobytes/s} = 12.5 s.

12,5 seconds.

According to 2013 report from Population Reference Bureau, the mean travel time to work of workers ages 16 and older who did not
gregori [183]

Answer:

a) 48.80% probability that his travel time to work is less than 30 minutes

b) The mean is 30.7 minutes and the standard deviation is of 3.83 minutes.

c) 13.13% probability that in a random sample of 36 NJ workers commuting to work, the mean travel time to work is above 35 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 30.7, \sigma = 23

a. If a worker is selected at random, what is the probability that his travel time to work is less than 30 minutes?

This is the pvlaue of Z when X = 30. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{30 - 30.7}{23}

Z = -0.03

Z = -0.03 has a pvalue of 0.4880.

48.80% probability that his travel time to work is less than 30 minutes

b. Specify the mean and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample means, for samples of size 36.

n = 36

Applying the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is 30.7 minutes and the standard deviation is s = \frac{23}{\sqrt{36}} = 3.83

c. What is the probability that in a random sample of 36 NJ workers commuting to work, the mean travel time to work is above 35 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 35. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{35 - 30.7}{3.83}

Z = 1.12

Z = 1.12 has a pvalue of 0.8687

1 - 0.8687 = 0.1313

13.13% probability that in a random sample of 36 NJ workers commuting to work, the mean travel time to work is above 35 minutes

Represent the geometric series using the explicit formula.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

The correct answer is:

b.) f(n) = 3 • (-2)^(n-1)

Further explanation:

Given sequence is:

3, -6, 12, -24, ...

We have to find the common ratio first.

Common ratio is the ratio between two consecutive terms of a geometric sequence.

It is denoted by r.

So,

Here,\\a_1=3\\a_2=-6\\a_3=12\\a_4=-24\\r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{-6}{3}=-2\\\frac{a_3}{a_2}=\frac{12}{-6}=-2

General formula for geometric sequence is:

a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\\Here\\a_n\ is\ the\ nth\ term\\a_1\ is\ the\ first\ term\\and\\r\ is\ common\ ratio

Putting the values of a1 and r

a_n=3.(-2)^{n-1}\\f(n)=3.(-2)^{n-1}

Hence,

The correct answer is:

b.) f(n) = 3 • (-2)^(n-1)

Plutonium-240 decays according to the function L where o
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

\boxed{\textbf{1700 yr}}

Step-by-step explanation:

-\dfrac{\text{d}L}{\text{d}t} = kL\\\\\dfrac{dL}{L}=-kdt\\\\\ln L = -kt + C\\\text{At t = 0, L = L$_{0}$, so C = $\ln L_{0}$}\\\ln L = -kt + \ln L_{0}\\\ln L_{0} - \ln L = kt\\\\\ln \dfrac{L_{0}}{L} =kt

Data:

L₀ = 24 g

L = 20 g

k = 0.000 11 yr⁻¹

Calculation:

\ln \dfrac{24}{20} =0.000 11t\\\\\ln 1.2 = 0.000 11t\\\\0.1823 = 0.000 11t\\\\t = \dfrac{0.1823}{0.000 11} = \textbf{1700 yr}\\\\\text{It will take } \boxed{\textbf{1700 yr}}\text{ for the polonium to decay to 20 g}
