Answer:

A visit must be of at least 42.39 minutes to put a shopper in the longest 10 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 27.8 minutes and a standard deviation of 11.4 minutes.

This means that \mu = 27.8, \sigma = 11.4

How long must a visit be to put a shopper in the longest 10 percent?

The 100 - 10 = 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

1.28 = \frac{X - 27.8}{11.4}

X - 27.8 = 1.28*11.4

X = 42.39

A visit must be of at least 42.39 minutes to put a shopper in the longest 10 percent.

Could someone please explain to me how to determine the answer to this question?

Concept: Solution of the given attachment is based on the addition of two vectors as given below.

Consider two vectors P and Q, then resultant of these two vectors is given as,

R = P + Q

To find the addition of G & H vectors. That is G + H =?

In the given figure;

Vector A = - Vector G because both are in opposite directions -----(i)

From the figure,

A + H = F --------------- using the given concept ---------(ii)

Now, shall replace the value of A from equation (i) in equation(ii)

- G + H = F

or, G + (- H) = - F

Since the vector addition of G & H is not equal to F.

Hence, the given statement G + H = F is False.

How do I write an equation of a line in slope intercept from
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

You would use the formula y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the slope was 1/2 and the y intercept was 2, it would be y=1/2x+2
