Find the area for this problem

The table below shows the combination of a dry prepackaged mix and water to make concrete. The mix says for every 1 gallon of wa

egoroff_w [7]

Let's assign a variable x to the number of multiples for each pound of dry mix and water. With that being the said, the question for finding the total pounds would be:

Total pounds = x*Pounds of dry mix + x*Pounds of water
Total pounds = 60x + 8x = 68x = 14 + 1/6 = 85/6
x = 85/6 / 68
x = 5/24

Thus, the pounds of dry mix is 60*5/24 = 25/2 lbs, while the pounds of water is 8*5/24 = 5/3 pounds.

What is the total number of outcomes for choosing a numbered card from 1 to 10 and a number on a

ycow [4]

the total number of out comes would be 16^2 or 256.

some extra things...

A numbered card from 1 - 10 would be 1 over 10 or 10% chance of picking correctly.

a number cube from 1 - 6 would be 1 over 6 or 16.66% chance of picking correctly.

if you want to combine these and pick one from both, it becomes 1 over 16 or 6.25% chance of picking both correctly.

A study of long-distance phone calls made from General Electric's corporate headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, revealed the

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

a) 0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

b) 0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

c) 0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

d) 0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

e) They last at least 4.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 3.6, \sigma = 0.4$

(a) What fraction of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.6.

X = 4.2

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

X = 3.6

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

$Z = \frac{3.6 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5

0.9332 - 0.5 = 0.4332

0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

(b) What fraction of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

(c) What fraction of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

X = 5

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

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 4.2

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

0.9998 - 0.9332 = 0.0666

0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

(d) What fraction of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

X = 5

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

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 3

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

$Z = \frac{3 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.9998 - 0.0668 = 0.9330

0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

(e) As part of her report to the president, the director of communications would like to report the length of the longest (in duration) 4% of the calls. What is this time?

At least X minutes

X is the 100-4 = 96th percentile, which is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.96. So X when Z = 1.75.

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

$1.75 = \frac{X - 3.6}{0.4}$

$X - 3.6 = 0.4*1.75$

$X = 4.3$

They last at least 4.3 minutes
