Suppose the weekly amount of money spent on maintenance and repairs by a company is NOT approximately normally distributed. Howe

ver, its mean and standard deviation are known to be $400 and $20, respectively. If $450 is budgeted for next week, what can you say about the probability that the actual costs will exceed the budgeted amount

Answer:

Probability = 0.00621

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 400

Population standard deviation; σ = 20

Raw score; x¯ = 450

the probability that the actual costs will exceed the budgeted amount will be the p-value.

Thus, let's first find the z-score after which we will find the p-value.

z = (x¯ - μ)/σ

z = (450 - 400)/20

z = 50/20

z = 2.5

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = 2.5; one tailed hypothesis; significance level of 0.05, we have;

P-value = 0.00621

Plz solve i beg i really need help i beg u guys
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

check the picture below.


if ∡F = 90° and ∡D = 30°, then the ∡A = 60°, meaning the triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle and therefore we can use the 30-60-90 rule as  you see in the picture.


\bf \textit{area of a triangle}\\\\&#10;A=\cfrac{1}{2}bh~~&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;b=base\\&#10;h=height\\[-0.5em]&#10;\hrulefill\\&#10;h=7\sqrt{3}\\&#10;b=7&#10;\end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{2}(7)(7\sqrt{3})&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A=\cfrac{49\sqrt{3}}{2}\implies A\approx 42.43524478543749369142

One year,the price of wheat was $8.87 per bushel.The next year,the price was $9.60. Round the price per bushel of wheat for each
stellarik [79]
<span>So the given numbers are:
=> One year, the price of wheat is 8.87 dollars
=> the next year, the price of wheat is 9.60 dollars.
We were asked to round each prices of bushels of wheat to its nearest tenths.
=> 8.87, where 8 before the decimal point is ones, 8 next to decimal point is tenths and 7 is the hundredths.
=>round off to the nearest tenths
=> 8.9
=> next is 9.60, where 9 is the ones value, 6 is the tenths value and 0 is the hundredths.
=> round off to nearest tenths
=> 9.6

The nine squares of a 3-by-3 chessboard are to be colored red and blue. The chessboard is free to rotate but cannot be flipped o
nignag [31]

Answer:

a_n = 2^{\frac{n^2-1}{4} + 1} + \frac{2^{n^2} - \, 2^{\frac{n^2-1}{4} + 1}}{4}

For n = 3, there are 134 possibilities

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets calculate the generating function.

For each square we have 2 possibilities: red and blue. The Possibilities between n² squares multiply one with each other, giving you a total of 2^n² possibilities to fill the chessboard with the colors blue or red.

However, rotations are to be considered, then we should divide the result by 4, because there are 4 ways to flip the chessboard (including not moving it), that means that each configuration is equivalent to three other ones, so we are counting each configuration 4 times, with the exception of configurations that doesnt change with rotations.

A chessboard that doesnt change with rotations should have, in each position different from the center, the same colors than the other three positions it could be rotated into. As a result, we can define a <em>symmetric by rotations chessboard</em> with only (n²-1)/4 + 1 squares (the quarter part of the total of squares excluding the center plus the center).

We cocnlude that the total of configurations of symmetrical boards is 2^{\frac{n^2-1}{4} + 1}

Since we have to divide by 4 the rest of configurations (because we are counted 4 times each one considering rotations), then the total number of configutations is

a_n = 2^{\frac{n^2-1}{4} + 1} + \frac{2^{n^2} - \, 2^{\frac{n^2-1}{4} + 1}}{4}

If n = 3, then the total amount of possibilities are

a_3 = 2^{\frac{3^2-1}{4} + 1} + \frac{2^{3^2} - \, 2^{\frac{3^2-1}{4} + 1}}{4} =  134
