What is y = 3/5x????

a baseball pitcher won 80% of the games he pitched. If he pitched 35 ballgames, how many game did he win?

If the baseball pitcher won 80% of the games he pitched and he pitched 35 ballgames, and you would like to know how many games did he win, you can calculate this using the following steps:

80% of 35 = 80% * 35 = 80/100 *35 = 28 games

Result: The baseball pitcher won 28 games.

Student scores on exams given by a certain instructor have mean 74 and standard deviation 14. This instructor is about to give t

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

$P(\bar X >80)=P(Z>2.143)=1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent the Student scores on exams given by a certain instructor, we know that X have the following distribution:

$X \sim N(\mu=74, \sigma=14)$

The sampling distribution for the sample mean is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

The deduction is explained below we have this:

$E(\bar X)= E(\sum_{i=1}^{n}\frac{x_i}{n})= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{E(x_i)}{n}= \frac{n\mu}{n}=\mu$

$Var(\bar X)=Var(\sum_{i=1}^{n}\frac{x_i}{n})= \frac{1}{n^2}\sum_{i=1}^n Var(x_i)$

Since the variance for each individual observation is $Var(x_i)=\sigma^2$ then:

$Var(\bar X)=\frac{n \sigma^2}{n^2}=\frac{\sigma}{n}$

And then for this special case:

$\bar X \sim N(74,\frac{14}{\sqrt{25}}=2.8)$

We are interested on this probability:

$P(\bar X >80)$

And we have already found the probability distribution for the sample mean on part a. So on this case we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

Applying this we have the following result:

$P(\bar X >80)=P(Z>\frac{80-74}{\frac{14}{\sqrt{25}}})=P(Z>2.143)$

And using the normal standard distribution, Excel or a calculator we find this:

$P(Z>2.143)=1-P(z$

L= 2w+30

Perimeter= 2(l+w)
Substitute in the length above
P=2 ((2w+30) + w)
Remember order of operations. You must multiply everything by 2 before adding.
P=4w+60+2w
P=6w+60

The base of a solid is the region in the first quadrant between the graph of y=x2 and the x -axis for 0≤x≤1 . For the solid, eac

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The volume of the solid is π/40 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the graph below.

Recall that the area of a semi-circle is given by:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}\pi r^2$

The volume of the solid will be the integral from x = 0 to x = 1 of area A. Since the diameter is given by y, then the radius is y/2. Hence, the volume of the solid is:

$\displaystyle V=\int_0^1\frac{1}{2}\pi \left(\frac{y}{2}\right)^2\, dx$
