Answer:
a. 8.66 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the flight times are uniformly distributed, the standard deviation can be calculated as follows:

Where '<em>b' </em>is the maximum flight time (150 minutes) and '<em>a' </em>is the minimum flight time (120 minutes):

The distribution's standard deviation is 8.66 minutes.
Answer:
And the 90% confidence interval would be between [566.80 and 579.20]
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given
represent the sample mean
population mean (variable of interest)
s=22 represent the sample standard deviation
n=36 represent the sample size
Confidence interval
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
(1)
The degrees of freedom are given by:
The Confidence level is 0.90 or 90%, the significance would be
and
, and the critical value for this case would be
And replacing we got:
And the 90% confidence interval would be between [566.8033 and 579.1967]
Answer:
It intersects the x-axis at x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 9)
m = 4/-4
m = -1
y = -x + b
Step 2: Find <em>b</em>
5 = -5 + b
b = 10
Step 3: Rewrite equation
y = -x + 10
Step 4: Find <em>x</em> when <em>y</em> = 0
0 = -x + 10
-10 = -x
x = 10
So the graph crosses the x-axis at 10.
2 because u divide 8 by 4 and u get the answer 2
You can find the remainder right away by simply plugging in

. The polynomial remainder theorem guarantees that the value of

is the remainder upon dividing

by

, but I digress...
Synthetic division yields
3 | 2 -11 18 -15
. | 6 -15 9
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
. | 2 -5 3 -6
which translates to

(and note that

, as expected)
