Given the mean of a random variable, X, is 10 and P(X < 11) = 0.67. Find the standard deviation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the problem we need to solve:

z=\frac{x_i-\bar{x}}{\sigma} and we have everything but the z-score (which we find from a table) with our main unknown being the standard deviation.

If the probability that a random variable that is less than 11 is .67, we first have to find the z-score from the table that is closest to .67, and there are 2:

P(z < .43) = .66640 and P(z < .44) = .67003

We'll use z = .44

.44=\frac{11-10}{\sigma} and

.44=\frac{1}{\sigma} and

\sigma=\frac{1}{.44} so

σ = 2.27 (check it; it works!)

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

the car travels faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the motorcycle has traveled 300 feet, and the car has traveled 600 feet, we will divide 600 by 2

600 divided by 2 = 300

Hank would have traveled 300 feet in 10 seconds

Andy traveled 300 feet at 12 seconds

Therefore Hanks car travels faster

A plot of land has been surveyed for a new housing development with borders AB, BC, DC, and DA. The plot of land is a right trap
sdas [7]

Answer:

m∠ABC = 119° and DC = 105 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

For better understanding of the solution see the attached figure of the trapezium ABCD :

m∠BCD = 61°

By using the property, Sum of interior opposite angles in a trapezium is supplementary ⇒ m∠BCD + m∠ABC = 180°

⇒ m∠ABC = 180° - 61°

⇒ m∠ABC = 119°

Now, to find length of DC,

Draw a perpendicular BE on CD ⇒ CD = DE + EC

AB = DE

⇒ DE = 80 feet

In ΔBEC, By using Pythagoras theorem

EC² = BC² - BE²

⇒ EC² = 65² - 60²

⇒ EC = 25 feet

Hence, DC = 80 + 25

                   = 105 feet
