Answer:

Step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mario made a mistake in Step 2 when substracting $\frac{1}{3}$ from $\frac{4}{3}$ . When substracting his result ended up being $\frac{2}{3}$ but it is actually....

$\frac{4}{3} - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{4-1}{3} = \frac{3}{3} = 1$

so the right answer is $q = 1$

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minute

NemiM [27]

Answer:

a) 10.93% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes.

b) 99.22% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mildly obese

Normally distributed with mean 373 minutes and standard deviation 67 minutes. So $\mu = 373, \sigma = 67$

A) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes?

So $n = 5, s = \frac{67}{\sqrt{5}} = 29.96$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 373}{29.96}$

$Z = 1.23$

$Z = 1.23$ has a pvalue of 0.8907.

So there is a 1-0.8907 = 0.1093 = 10.93% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes.

Lean

Normally distributed with mean 526 minutes and standard deviation 107 minutes. So $\mu = 526, \sigma = 107$

B) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?

So $n = 5, s = \frac{107}{\sqrt{5}} = 47.86$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 526}{47.86}$

$Z = -2.42$

$Z = -2.42$ has a pvalue of 0.0078.

So there is a 1-0.0078 = 0.9922 = 99.22% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes.

2<br> 7<br> What is the area of the triangle?<br> units?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a triangle is always

baseline × height / 2

where baseline and height are perpendicular (at a 90° angle) to each other.

so, in our case the area is

7 × 2 / 2 = 7 × 1 = 7 units²

If 2a+4b=5 and a is equal to three times b, what is 3a?

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

3a=4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

it says that "a is equal to 3 times b", which translates to a=3b

We can substitute a as 3b in 2a+4b=5

2(3b)+4b=5

multiply

6b+4b=5

add

10b=5

divide by 10

b=1/2

since it's given that a=3b, we can multiply 1/2 by 3

a=3/2

3a is 3 times a, so we can mutiply 3(3/2)=9/2=4.5

Hope this helps!
