Answer:
a) 0.16
b) 0.0518
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, we have that the mean is
and the standard deviation is 
In this problem, we have that:

a. Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of minority member applications in a random sample of 2100 that is drawn from all applications.
The mean of p is 0.16.
b. Find the standard deviation of p.

c. Compute an approximation for P ( p leq 0.15), which is the probability that there will be 15% or fewer minority member applications in a random sample of 2100 drawn from all applications. Round your answer to four decimal places.
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 0.15. So



has a pvalue of 0.4247

Answer:
Time required by Machine B to create a widget = 4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Time taken by Machine A (
) = 3 hours
Time taken by Machine B (
)= x hours
Time taken by both machines by working together = 12 hours
The time required to both machines by working together to finish a task is given by the formula = 
Put the values in above formula we get
⇒ T = 
⇒ 12 = 
⇒ 36 + 12 x = 3 x
⇒ x = - 4 hours
This is the time required by Machine B to create a widget.
Answer:
A) $16
B) p(x) = 16x -800
C) 69 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The total of expenses is ...
$280 +100 +20 +400 = $800
If this is covered by 50 tickets, then a ticket must provide revenue of ...
$800/50 = $16
The cost per ticket is $16.
__
B) The profit is the difference between revenue and expenses. The revenue from sale of x tickets will be 16x. The expenses are fixed at 800, so the profit is ...
p(x) = 16x -800
__
C) We can find the number of tickets to sell (x) in order for profit to be at least $300 by solving the inequality ...
p(x) ≥ 300
16x -800 ≥ 300 . . . . . use the expression for p(x)
16x ≥ 1100 . . . . . . . . . add 800
x ≥ 68.75 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 16 . . . (the least satisfactory integer is 69)
In order to raise at least $300, the number of tickets sold must be at least 69.
Answer:
C. 5x and x are like terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms have the same degree of the variable
5x and x are like terms because both have x to the power 1
