The head of maintenance at XYZ Rent-A-Car believes that the mean number of miles between services is 2135 miles, with a variance

of 145,924. If he is correct, what is the probability that the mean of a sample of 40 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 29 miles

Answer:

0.36878

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean number of miles (m) = 2135 miles

Variance = 145924

Sample size (n) = 40

Standard deviation (s) = √variance = √145924 = 382

probability that the mean of a sample of 40 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 29 miles

P( 2135 - 29 < z < 2135 + 29)

Z = (x - m) / s /√n

Z = [(2106 - 2135) / 382 / √40] < z < [(2164 - 2135) / 382 / √40]

Z = (- 29 / 60.399503) < z < (29 / 60.399503)

Z = - 0.4801364 < z < 0.4801364

P(Z < - 0.48) = 0.31561

P(Z < - 0.48) = 0.68439

P(- 0.480 < z < 0.480) = 0.68439 - 0.31561 = 0.36878

= 0.36878

Answer:

Once upon a time, there were a two person family who lived out in the woods. The father took great care of the son. The father was a Botany, but had retired because of his age. But still he loved plants and grew a garden. The garden included Giant Bird of Paradise, Carnations, Irises, and ofc roses. He loved plants so much that he went out to dig a hole and plant different  flowers and plants every spring. When the son grew older he helped the father with the garden. Two years later his son was accused of murder, but the body wasn't found. Next spring came and the father went out to dig. He couldn't Finnish it. He called his son and say he couldn't do the garden thing, because of his age. The son said don't dig there that's where he hid the bodies. The police came to dig the holes and try to find the bodies, but none of them were found. The father called the son again, and the son said thats all I can do for you right now.

300 juniors at Central High School took the ACT last year. The scores were distributed normally with a mean of 24 and a standard
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

150 students

Step-by-step explanation:

According to statement we have the following information

number of juniors=n=300

mean score=24

standard deviation score=4

The number of students that score above 24 is determined by

Number of students score above 24=number of juniors* P(student score above 24)

P(student score above 24)=P(x>24)=P(x-mean/sd>24-24/4)=P(z>0)=0.5.

Students score above 24=np=300*0.5=150

Hence there are 150 students scored above 24.

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of 3 mi and a speed of 440 mi/h passes directly over a radar station. find the rate a
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Let α represent the acute angle between the horizontal and the straight line from the plane to the station. If the 4-mile measure is the straight-line distance from the plane to the station, then
  sin(α) = 3/4
and
  cos(α) = √(1 - (3/4)²) = (√7)/4

The distance from the station to the plane is increasing at a rate that is the plane's speed multiplied by the cosine of the angle α. Hence the plane–station distance is increasing at the rate of
  (440 mph)×(√7)/4 ≈ 291 mph
