Answer: 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation: You would first multiply 2 hours by 4 mph, and get 8 miles. You would then subtract 8 miles from 26 miles, and have 18 miles left. You would now divide 18 miles by 3, as he is now traveling 3 miles per hour and needs to travel 18 miles. You would get 6 hours. You would now add 6 hours by the 2 hours initially traveled at 4 mph, and get 8 hours.

What is the probability that a randomly selected member of a normally distributed population will lie more than 1.8 standard dev
Helen [10]

Answer:

P(X> \mu +1.8\sigma)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{\mu +1.8\sigma-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>1.8)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>1.8)=1-P(z

And using the normal standard distirbution table or excel we got:

P(z>1.8)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable if interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)  

We are interested on this probability

P(X>\mu +1.8 \sigma)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X> \mu +1.8\sigma)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{\mu +1.8\sigma-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>1.8)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>1.8)=1-P(z

And using the normal standard distirbution table or excel we got:

P(z>1.8)=1-P(z

Enter the fraction 33100 as a decimal
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

0.33

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have the number 1 and divide it by 100, you get 1/100, 0.01, or 1% of 1. If you multiply 1/100 by 33, you get 33/100, 0.33, or 33% of 1.

What is the value of x? Please explain the step process to getting to the conclusion.
olga55 [171]

First, split the triangle into half.

So the angle 38 becomes 38/2=19.

So we know two angles in the triangle:

One is 19 degrees.

The other one is 90 degrees (marked red).

The angles in a right-angled triangle add up to 180 degrees.

So to find the x angle, we calculate it by:

180 - (90+19) = 71

(the sum of three angles) - (the sum of the two known angles) = unknown angle

So x = 71 degrees.
