Many families in California are using backyard structures for home offices, art studios, and hobby areas as well as for addition

al storage. Suppose that the mean price for a customized wooden, shingled backyard structure is $3,200. Assume that the standard deviation is $1,200. (a) What is the z-score for a backyard structure costing $2,300

Answer:

-0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the z score we have to use this formula

Z = X-mean/standard deviation

X = 2300

Mean = 3200

The standard deviation = 1200

When we plug these values into the z formula above, we have:

2300-3200/1200

= -900/1200

= -0.75

the z-score for a backyard structure costing $2,300 is therefore -0.75

Andy is always looking for ways to make money fast. Lately, he has been trying to make money by gambling. Here is the game he is
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of game = $5.00

If they draw a face card, they win $10.00 (i.e. they get their $5.00 back and get an extra $5.00).

Winning amount = $5

Number of face cards = 12

Probability of getting a face card =

If they draw an ace, they win $20.00 (i.e. they get their $5.00 back and get an extra $15.00).

Winning amount = $15

Number of ace = 4

Probability of getting an ace  =

Any other draw they lose their money.

Number of other card (Exclude ace and face cards) = 52-4-12=36

Probability of getting other cards  =

The expected money value playing this game is

E(x) = 5 × P(face cards) + 15 × P(Ace) - 5 × P(Other cards)

The expected money value playing this game is -$1.15

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Suppose the time a child spends waiting at for the bus as a school bus stop is exponentially distributed with mean 7 minutes. De
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The probability that the child must wait between 6 and 9 minutes on the bus stop on a given morning is 0.148.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> represent the time a child spends waiting at for the bus as a school bus stop.

The random variable <em>X</em> is exponentially distributed with mean 7 minutes.

Then the parameter of the distribution is,\lambda=\frac{1}{\mu}=\frac{1}{7}.

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\lambda\cdot e^{-\lambda x};\ x>0,\ \lambda>0

Compute the probability that the child must wait between 6 and 9 minutes on the bus stop on a given morning as follows:

P(6\leq X\leq 9)=\int\limits^{9}_{6} {\lambda\cdot e^{-\lambda x}} \, dx

                      =\int\limits^{9}_{6} {\frac{1}{7}\cdot e^{-\frac{1}{7} \cdot x}} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{7}\cdot \int\limits^{9}_{6} {e^{-\frac{1}{7} \cdot x}} \, dx \\\\=[-e^{-\frac{1}{7} \cdot x}]^{9}_{6}\\\\=e^{-\frac{1}{7} \cdot 6}-e^{-\frac{1}{7} \cdot 9}\\\\=0.424373-0.276453\\\\=0.14792\\\\\approx 0.148

Thus, the probability that the child must wait between 6 and 9 minutes on the bus stop on a given morning is 0.148.

In March 2007​, the U.S. unemployment rate was 4.4 percent. In August 2008​, the unemployment rate was 6.1 percent. Predict what
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

In March 2007, the unemployment rate was 4.4 percent. In August 2008 was 6.1 percent. We need to remember that the unemployment rate equals the number of unemployed people divided by the people in the labor force.

Now, if we consider that the labor force remained constant during this period of time (according to the problem) then this would mean that the number of unemployed people actually increased during this period of 17 months.
