Answer:

N_{a} = T_{a}

N_{c} = 2 \times T_{c}

Step-by-step explanation:

Alejandro has read 28 pages so far and he can read 1 page per minute.

Again, Carly has read 12 pages so far and he can read 2 pages per minute.

If the variable N represents the number of pages read by the readers and T in minutes represents the time spent by the reader to read this number of pages, then  

For Alejandro: N_{a} = 1 \times T_{a} = T_{a} ......... (1)

For Carly: N_{c} = 2 \times T_{c} .......... (2)

So, the equations (1) and (2) gives the number of pages that Alejandro and Carly read. (Answer)

Answer:

The probability that Jeannie will miss her flight because her total time for catching her plane exceeds one hour is 0.0026.

Jeannie should leave her office 55 minutes early.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = time it requires Jeannie to catch her plane.

The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed, N(46, 5).

Compute the probability that Jeannie will miss her flight because her total time for catching her plane exceeds one hour as follows:

P(X>60)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} >\frac{60-46}{5} )\\=P(Z>2.8)\\=1-P(Z

The probability that Jeannie will miss her flight because her total time for catching her plane exceeds one hour is 0.0026.

Now, it is provided that Jeannie has 96% chance of catching her flight if she reaches under <em>x</em> minutes.

That is, P (X < x) = 0.96.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

P(X

**Use the <em>z</em>-table to compute the value of <em>z</em>.

The value of <em>z</em> is 1.751.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

z=\frac{x-46}{5}\\ 1.751=\frac{x-46}{5}\\x=46+(1.751\times5)\\=54.755\\\approx 55

Thus, Jeannie should leave her office 55 minutes early.
