A bee flies at 10 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for 18 minutes, and then

flies directly back to the hive at 6
feet per second. It is away from the hive for a total of 23 minutes.
a. What equation can you use to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive?
b. How far is the flowerbed from the hive?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = distance from hive to flowers, in feet

flying time = 23 min - 18 min = 5 min = 300 sec

time flying to flowers = d ft × (1 sec)/(10 ft) = (d/10) sec

time flying to hive = d ft × (1 sec)/(6 ft) = (d/6) sec

d/10 + d/6 = 300 sec

:::::

d/10 + d/6 = 3d/30 +5d/30 = 8d/30 = 300

d = 300×30/8 = 1,125 ft

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is 91.77%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher was interested in seeing how many names a class of 38 students could remember after playing a name game After playing the name game, the students were asked to recall as many first names of fellow students as possible.

The mean number of names recalled was 19.41 with a standard deviation of 3.17.

<em>Let X = number of names recalled</em>

SO, X ~ N(\mu = 19.41,\sigma^{2} = 3.17^{2})

The z-score probability distribution is given by ;

                  Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } } ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = mean number of names recalled = 19.41

            \sigma = standard deviation = 3.17

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) 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.

Now, proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is given by = P(X > 15 names)

     P(X > 15) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{{\sigma} } } > \frac{15-19.41}{3.17}  } ) = P(Z > -1.39)

                                                      = P(Z < 1.39) = 0.9177  {using z table}

<em>Therefore, proportion of the students recalled more than 15 names is </em><em>91.77%.</em>
