A bus travels on an east-west highway connecting two cities A and B that are 100 miles apart. There are 2 services stations alon

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

51/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with you have to understand what is the distribution of the random variable. If X represents the point where the bus breaks down. That is correct.

X~ Uniform(0,100)

Then the probability mass function is given as follows.

$f(x) = P(X=x) = 1/100 \,\,\,\, \text{if} \,\,\,\, 0 \leq x \leq 100\\f(x) = P(X=x) = 0 \,\,\,\, \text{otherwise}$

Now, imagine that the D represents the distance from the break down point to the nearest station. Think about this, the first service station is 20 meters away from city A, and the second station is located 70 meters away from city A then the mid point between 20 and 70 is (70+20)/2 = 45 then we can represent D as follows

$D(x) =\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} x & \mbox{if } 0\leq x \leq 20 \\ x-20 & \mbox{if } 20\leq x < 45\\ 70-x & \mbox{if } 45 \leq x \leq 70\\ x-70 & \mbox{if } 70 \leq x \leq 100\\ \end{array}\right.$

Now, as we said before X represents the random variable where the bus breaks down, then we form a new random variable $Y = D(X)$ , $Y$ is a random variable as well, remember that there is a theorem that says that

$E[Y] = E[D(X)] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x) f(x) \,\, dx$

Where $f(x)$ is the probability mass function of X. Using the information of our problem

$E[Y] = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} D(x)f(x) dx \\= \frac{1}{100} \bigg[ \int\limits_{0}^{20} x dx +\int\limits_{20}^{45} (x-20) dx +\int\limits_{45}^{70} (70-x) dx +\int\limits_{70}^{100} (x-70) dx \bigg]\\= \frac{51}{4} = 12.75$

Almost all medical schools in the United States require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). To estimate

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a) 0.5588

b) 0.9984

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 24

Standard Deviation, σ = 6.4

We are given that the distribution of score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) P(score between 20 and 30)

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{6.4} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{6.4}) = P(-0.62 \leq z \leq 0.94)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.94) - P(z < -0.62)\\= 0.8264 - 0.2676 = 0.5588 = 55.88\%$

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = 55.88\%$

b) Sampling distribution

Sample size, n = 22

The sample will follow a normal distribution with mean 24 and standard deviation,

$s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{6.4}{\sqrt{22}} =1.36$

c) P(mean score of sample is between 20 and 30)

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{1.36} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{1.36}) = P(-2.94 \leq z \leq 4.41)\\\\= P(z \leq 4.41) - P(z < -2.94)\\= 1 - 0.0016 = 0.9984 = 99.84\%$

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) =99.84\%$

Which of the following are true about dilations? Select all that apply.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

A, B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilations are transformation in which a shape either gets bigger or smaller than the original image. Although it changes sizes it does not change shape.

Therefore, A, B and C are correct.
