Answer:

5.48% of the people in line waited for more than 28 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean waiting time of 20 minutes with a standard deviation of 5 minutes.

This means that \mu = 20, \sigma = 5

What percentage of the people in line waited for more than 28 minutes?

The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 28. So

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

Z = \frac{28 - 20}{5}

Z = 1.6

Z = 1.6 has a p-value of 0.9452.

1 - 0.9452 = 0.0548.

As a percentage:

0.0548*100% = 5.48%

5.48% of the people in line waited for more than 28 minutes

Write the equation in standard form.<br><br> 8−5y=−2x
MrMuchimi

bearing in mind that

standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient


8 - 5y = - 2x

2x - 5y = - 8

No x = -10 cannot be an input value because the x is the number of students , which can only be from 0 and above. You cannot have negative students.

A bicycle has tires with a diameter of 21 inches. How many inches will
Finger [1]

Answer:

175 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 full revolution, the bike will travel 42 inches because the diameter of the tire is 21 inches. Any point on the tire will have to go through a whole revolution to be back at the original point which means 21 inches times 2.

So the bike travels 42 inches in 1 revolution then in 50 revolutions it will travel 2100 inches (42 times 50). Now if your convert 2100 inches to feet, you get 175 feet.
