Let garret’s age be x

x + 2 + (x + 3) + 2 = 39
2x + 7 = 39
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16

Garrett’s age after two years = 16 + 2 = 18

NASA launched another space probe, Voyager 2 on August 20, 1977. Voyager 2 is a bit slower than Voyager 1 only traveling 15.4 km
slava [35]

Using proportions, it is found that it will take Voyager 2 82,900 years from its location to travel to the second closest star.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

In this problem, the Voyager 2 travels 15.4 km/s. In kilometers per year, considering that one hour has 3600 seconds, the measure is given by:

15.4 x 365 x 24 x 3600 = 485,654,400 km/year.

The distance to Proxima Centauri in km is given by:

d = |1.93 x 10^10 km - 4.24 x 9.5 x 10^12 km| = 4.02607 x 10^13 km.

Hence the time in years is given by:

t = d/v =  4.02607 x 10^13/485,654,400 = 82,900.

It will take Voyager 2 82,900 years from its location to travel to the second closest star.

A data set with a mean of 34 and a standard deviation of 2.5 is normally distributed
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

a) z= \frac{34-34}{2.5}= 0

z= \frac{39-34}{2.5}= 2

And we want the probability from 0 to two deviations above the mean and we got 95/2 = 47.5 %

b) P(X

z= \frac{31.5-34}{2.5}= -1

So one deviation below the mean we have: (100-68)/2 = 16%

c) z= \frac{29-34}{2.5}= -2

z= \frac{36.5-34}{2.5}= 1

For this case below 2 deviation from the mean we have 2.5% and above 1 deviation from the mean we got 16% and then the percentage between -2 and 1 deviation above the mean we got: (100-16-2.5)% = 81.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a random variable with the following parameters:

X \sim N(\mu = 34, \sigma=2.5)

From the empirical rule we know that within one deviation from the mean we have 68% of the values, within two deviations we have 95% and within 3 deviations we have 99.7% of the data.

We want to find the following probability:

P(34 < X

We can find the number of deviation from the mean with the z score formula:

z= \frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}

And replacing we got

z= \frac{34-34}{2.5}= 0

z= \frac{39-34}{2.5}= 2

And we want the probability from 0 to two deviations above the mean and we got 95/2 = 47.5 %

For the second case:

P(X

z= \frac{31.5-34}{2.5}= -1

So one deviation below the mean we have: (100-68)/2 = 16%

For the third case:

P(29 < X

And replacing we got:

z= \frac{29-34}{2.5}= -2

z= \frac{36.5-34}{2.5}= 1

For this case below 2 deviation from the mean we have 2.5% and above 1 deviation from the mean we got 16% and then the percentage between -2 and 1 deviation above the mean we got: (100-16-2.5)% = 81.5%
