Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not rational. It can't be represented as a fraction.

It can't be a decimal the ends. If I told you want the hundredth digit was, you could not establish the 101st digit.

If you try to find the square of 7 using the calculator that comes with winds, you get an answer that goes out to 2 followed by the decimal followed by 31 digits. You cannot find a pattern nor can you find an ending.

sqrt(7) is irrational.

The taxi and takeoff time for commercial jets is a random variable x with a mean of 8.9 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.9

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

a) 0.2981 = 29.81% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be less than 320 minutes.

b) 0.999 = 99.9% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be more than 275 minutes

c) 0.2971 = 29.71% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be between 275 and 320 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 8.9 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.9 minutes.

This means that $\mu = 8.9, \sigma = 2.9$

Sample of 37:

This means that $n = 37, s = \frac{2.9}{\sqrt{37}}$

(a) What is the probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be less than 320 minutes?

320/37 = 8.64865

Sample mean below 8.64865, which is the p-value of Z when X = 8.64865. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

$Z = \frac{8.64865 - 8.9}{\frac{2.9}{\sqrt{37}}}$

$Z = -0.53$

$Z = -0.53$ has a p-value of 0.2981

0.2981 = 29.81% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be less than 320 minutes.

(b) What is the probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be more than 275 minutes?

275/37 = 7.4324

Sample mean above 7.4324, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 7.4324. So

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

$Z = \frac{7.4324 - 8.9}{\frac{2.9}{\sqrt{37}}}$

$Z = -3.08$

$Z = -3.08$ has a p-value of 0.001

1 - 0.001 = 0.999

0.999 = 99.9% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be more than 275 minutes.

(c) What is the probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be between 275 and 320 minutes?

Sample mean between 7.4324 minutes and 8.64865 minutes, which is the p-value of Z when X = 8.64865 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 7.4324. So

0.2981 - 0.0010 = 0.2971

0.2971 = 29.71% probability that for 37 jets on a given runway, total taxi and takeoff time will be between 275 and 320 minutes

PLEASE HELP ASAP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! ^^ Sarah and Noah work at read on bookstore and get paid the same hourly wage. The table

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

1) 8= (5xW)+(3xW) (she worked 8 hours total over spread of two days)

2) 8=8xW (he worked 8 hours total over one day)

3) Yes, they worked the same number of hours, they just worked for an different amount of hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

I kind of explained it in the answer, but if you'd like a clarification.

Use the change of base formula to evaluate log3(73).

Marrrta [24]

The change of base formula allows you to write a logarithm in terms of logarithms with another base. It follows this pattern,

$log_{a}x = \frac{ log_{b}x }{log_{b}a }$

where a≠1 and b≠1

Assigning the base to be 7,

$log_{3}73 = \frac{ log_{7}73 }{log_{7}3 }=3.9$

I hope I was able to answer your question. Have a good day.

. Add and reduce to lowest terms: 3 + 8/15

makkiz [27]

Answer:

11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 3 to the numerator which is 8 and that would equal 11 so your complete fraction should be 11/15.

How is a rational number converted to its decimal form?

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Answer to first question is:

You can convert all fractions to decimals. The decimal forms of rational numbers either end or repeat a pattern. If the fraction is a mixed number, change it to an improper fraction. Divide the numerator by the denominator. If the division doesn't come out evenly, round the decimal off.

Answer to second question is: 0.222222

Answer to third question is: Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the way I think of it is:

3/9 as a fraction is 1/3... so 1 divided by 3 equals 0.333333 repeating. You can even write it as:

0.3 with the fraction bar over it because it keeps repeating.

This goes for 2/9. All you have to do is do 2 divided by 9 and you get 0.222222 repeating. You can even write it as:

0.2 with the fraction bar over it because it keeps repeating.

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;
