A) maximum mean weight of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ number of passengers
</span><span>
maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 </span>÷ 25 = <span>150lb
</span>B) First, find the z-score:
z = (value - mean) / stdev
= (150 - 199) / 41
= -1.20
We need to find P(z > -1.20) = 1 - P(z < -1.20)
Now, look at a standard normal table to find <span>P(z < -1.20) = 0.11507, therefore:
</span>P(z > -1.20) = 1 - <span>0.11507 = 0.8849
Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 25 randomly selected skiers exceeds 150lb is about 88.5%</span> </span>
C) With only 20 passengers, the new maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 ÷ 20 = <span>187.5lb
Let's repeat the steps of point B)
z = (187.5 - 199) / 41
= -0.29
P(z > -0.29) = 1 - P(z < -0.29) = 1 - 0.3859 = 0.6141
</span>Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 20 randomly selected skiers exceeds 187.5lb is about 61.4%
D) The mean weight of skiers is 199lb, therefore:
number</span> of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ <span>mean weight of passengers
= 3750 </span></span><span>÷ 199
= 18.8
The new capacity of 20 skiers is safer than 25 skiers, but we cannot consider it safe enough, since the maximum capacity should be of 18 skiers.</span>
Answer:
3.
7.608
Step-by-step explanation:
An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.
if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers
the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational
the only rational is the third
Answer:
---- in dollars
---- in cents
5 dollars 94 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Pears
per pound
Grapes
per pound
Required
Determine the amount paid for the fruit in dollar and cents
First, we need to calculate the amount paid for each fruit.
This is calculated by multiplying the amount per pound by the number of pounds bought.
For Pears:
Convert fraction to decimal
For Grapes
Convert fraction to decimal
Next, we add both amounts together to get the total amount spent in dollars.
Multiply by 100 to convert this amount to cents
And it can be represented as dollars and cents as:
5 dollars 94 cents
