Answer:

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}

In which \mu = \frac{1}{m} is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx

Which has the following solution:

P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}

Mean of 4 minutes

This means that m = 4, \mu = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25

Find the probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot:

This is:

P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2)

In which

P(X \leq 132) = 1 - e^{-0.25*132} = 1

P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.25*2} = 0.393469

P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.393469 = 0.606531

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

You roll a standard number cube. Find P(number greater than 1).
sesenic [268]
Well if its a standard die then the numbers on the die would be 1,2,3,4,5,6.  Since you want the probability that the number is GREATER than 1, you need to roll a 2,3,4,5, or 6.  Which you have 5 total outcomes that would be successful out of 6.  Makes the probability 5/6 or .833333

For women aged​ 18-24, systolic blood pressures are normally distributed with a mean of 114.8 mm Hg and a standard deviation of
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

0.0579 is the probability that mean systolic blood pressure is between 119 and 122 mm Hg for the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 114.8 mm Hg

Standard Deviation, σ = 13.1 mm Hg

Sample size = 23

We are given that the distribution of systolic blood pressures is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Standard error due to sampling:

\displaystyle\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{13.1}{\sqrt{23}} = 2.731

P(blood pressure is between 119 and 122 mm Hg)

P(119 \leq x \leq 122) = P(\displaystyle\frac{119 - 114.8}{2.731} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{122-114.8}{2.731}) = P(1.537 \leq z \leq 2.636)\\\\= P(z \leq 2.636) - P(z < 1.537)\\= 0.9958 - 0.9379 = 0.0579= 5.79\%

P(119 \leq x \leq 122) = 5.79\%

0.0579 is the probability that mean systolic blood pressure is between 119 and 122 mm Hg for the sample.

Someone help me ( view picture below )
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

D. 13

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 5

2 x 5 + 3 = 13

5 + 8 = 13

meaning the side length has to be 13, also.
