A professor's son, having made the wise decision to drop out of college, has been finding his way in life taking one job or anot

her, leaving when his creativity is overly stifled or the employer tires of his creativity. The professor dutifully logs the duration of his son's last few careers and has determined that the average duration is normally distributed with a mean of eighty-eight weeks and a standard deviation of twenty weeks. The next career begins on Monday; what is the likelihood that it endures for more than one year?

Answer:

0.9641 or 96.41%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean career duration (μ) = 88 weeks

Standard deviation (σ) = 20

The z-score for any given career duration 'X' is defined as:  

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}  

In this problem, we want to know what is the probability that the professor's son's next career lasts more than a year. Assuming that a year has 52 weeks, the equivalent z-score for a 1-year career is:

z=\frac{52-88}{20}\\z=-1.8\\

According to a z-score table, a z-score of -1.8 is at the 3.59-th percentile, therefore, the likelihood that this career lasts more than a year is given by:

P(X>52) = 1-0.0359\\P(X>52) = 0.9641\ or\ 96.41\%

Jim has $4,200 in his checking account to pay his rent. Each month, $600 is taken out of the account
Allushta [10]

Answer:4200-600m=1800

Step-by-step explanation:

4200-600m=1800

Subtract 4200 from 1800

-600m=-3600

Divide both sides by -600

m=6

Find the area of the composite shape below.
arlik [135]

Answer: 1106.13 (2 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out the area of this composite shape you would have to put the two semi circles together to form a circle and work out the area of the circle (they have provided the radius which is 11in), then work out the area of the rectangle separately.

The formula for the area of a circle is πr^2 (pi x radius squared).

So when you put the numbers in the formula the area is πx11^2=380.1327111

Then to work out the area of the rectangle you would do base x height.

The height of the rectangle is the same as the diameter of the circle (the diameter is double the radius of a circle) which is 22in.

To find the area of the rectangle you do 22x33=726

So then to find the area of the whole shape you would have to add the area of the circle and the rectangle together.

726+380.1327111=1106.13 (2 decimal places).

what is the density of a sheet of aluminum that has a volume of 328.4 cubic centimeters and a mass of 780 grams
Nata [24]

Answer:

\large\boxed{density=\dfrac{1950}{821}\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}\approx2.375\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

density=\dfrac{mass}{volume}\\\\\text{We have}\\\\mass=780\ g\\volume=328.4\ cm^3\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\density=\dfrac{780g}{328.4\ cm^3}=\dfrac{780\cdot10}{328.4\cdot10}\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}=\dfrac{7800}{3284}\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}=\dfrac{7800:4}{3284:4}\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}\\\\=\dfrac{1950}{821}\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}
