Shanice's rate: 93 / 1.5 = 62 miles per hour

she is 10 miles slower than twice the speed of Brandon

62 +10 = 72

72/2 = 36

Brandon is driving 36 miles per hour

Assume the sample variances to be continuous measurements. Find the probability that a random sample of 25observations, from a n

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

a) $P(4S^2 > 4*9.1) = P(\chi^2_{24} >36.4) = 0.0502$

b) $P(13.848$ Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

For this case we assume that the sample variance is given by $S^2$ and we select a random sample of size n from a normal population with a population variance $\sigma^2$ . And we define the following statistic:

$T = \frac{(n-1) S^2}{\sigma^2}$

And the distribution for this statistic is $T \sim \chi^2_{n-1}$

For this case we know that n =25 and $\sigma^2 = 6$ so then our statistic would be given by:

$\chi^2 = \frac{(n-1)S^2}{\sigma^2}=\frac{24 S^2}{6}= 4S^2$

With 25-1 =24 degrees of freedom.

Solution to the problem

Part a

For this case we want this probability:

$P(S^2 > 9.1)$

And we can multiply the inequality by 4 on both sides and we got:

$P(4S^2 > 4*9.1) = P(\chi^2_{24} >36.4) = 0.0502$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=1-CHISQ.DIST(36.4,24,TRUE)"

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(3.462 < S^2$

If we multiply the inequality by 4 on all the terms we got:

$P(3.462*4 < 4S^2 < 4*10.745)= P(13.848< \chi^2$ And we can find this probability like this: $P(13.848$ And we use the following code to find the answer in excel: "=CHISQ.DIST(42.98,24,TRUE)-CHISQ.DIST(13.848,24,TRUE)"

A CD usually sells for $17.00. If the CD is 20% off, and sales tax is 6%, what is the total price of the CD, including tax?

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

14.42

Step-by-step explanation:

17.00 x .80 20% off means price is 80% (or .80) of price

=13.6

13.6 x .06 = .82 sales tax

13.60 + .82 = 14.42 sales price plus sales tax

Can someone pleaseee help!!!

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use known angles and rules to find unknown values

vertical angles (pairs of angles on opposite sides of an intersection) are equivalent

supplementary angles (angles found next to each other on a line) add up to 180 degrees

opposite interior angles are equivalent

And I don't remember the name of this kind of angle, but angle 1 and 10 are equivalent because they are found on the same "location"

using these rules you can find all missing angles.

1= 75

2=180-75=105

let me know if you need more help than this
