We know that out of 3000 people, 9 had a alergic reaction.
in this case our 100% is 3000, and we want to know what percentage is equivalent to those 9 that had a mild allergic reaction.
here we can use the rule of 3, this is:
if 3000 is equivalent to 100%, then 9 is equivalent to:
(9/3000)*100% = 0.3%

Suppose X has a continuous uniform distribution over the interval [1.3, 6.2]. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

(a) 3.75

(b) 2.00083

(c) 0.4898

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that X has a continuous uniform distribution over the interval [1.3, 6.2].

(a)

Compute the mean of X as follows:

\mu_{X}=\frac{a+b}{2}=\frac{1.3+6.2}{2}=3.75

(b)

Compute the variance of X as follows:

\sigm^{2}_{X}=\frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}=\frac{(6.2-1.3)^{2}}{12}=2.00083

(c)

Compute the value of P(X < 3.7) as follows:

P(X < 3.7)=\int\limits^{3.7}_{1.3}{\frac{1}{6.2-1.3}}\, dx\\\\=\frac{1}{4.9}\times [x]^{3.7}_{1.3}\\\\=\frac{3.7-1.3}{4.9}\\\\\approx 0.4898

Thus, the value of P(X < 3.7)  is 0.4898.

Please help this is my last question for this page and I'm stuck on it
Lena [83]

put a 1 under the 13, so it is 13/1, and 5 5/6, turn it into an improper fraction by multiplying 5x6=30. then 30+5, which is 35. so just keep the denominator, which would be 35/6. so you would have 13/1 - 35/6. you need the same denominator, so see what both 1 and 6 would fit into. which is 6. so 13x6 which is 78, so 78/6 - 35/6, so 78-35 is 43. so 43/6, then simplify, which is 7 1/6

Explain why multiplying a fraction by 5/6 results in a value that is less than the original fraction
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5/6) itself is less than 1 (but greater than 0).  Thus, anything multiplied by (5/6) will result in a smaller-by-magnitude quantity.

For example, (5/6)(3/4) is LESS than 3/4 because 5/6 is greater than zero but less than 1.

A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular area that is 1/8 mile wide by 1/4 mile long. which of the following proportions can the
nikitadnepr [17]
1mi = 5280feet
 The first thing you should do in this case is to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle which will be given by:
 P = 2 * L + 2 * W
 Where
 L = long
 W = width
 Calculating we have:
 P = 2 * (1/4) + 2 * (1/8)
 P = 1/2 + 1/4
 P = 3/4 mi
 To calculate this distance to feet we have to use the following expression:
 (3/4) / (x) = 1/5280
 answer:
<span> B) 3/4 miles divided by x= 1 mile/5280ft
