Clyde Cement wants to analyze a shipment of bags of cement. He knows the weight of the bags is normally distributed so he can us

avanturin [10]

The percentage of the bags of cement that would weigh less than 50 lbs. would be 50% because the normal distribution is symmetrical, and since the mean is your midpoint, then it would be 50% higher, and 50% lower.

What is the sum of the series?

Natalija [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

k=1: 2*1-4 = -2

k=2: 2*2²-4 = 4

k=3: 2*3²-4 = 14

k=4: 2*4²-4 = 28

-2 + 4 + 14 + 28 = 44

Suppose a basketball player has made 390 out of 434 free throws. If the player makes the next 2 free throws, I will pay you $40.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer: a) -$0.19, b) -$111.72 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of free throws = 434

Number of throws made by them = 390

Amount for making the next 2 free throws = $40

Amount otherwise he has to pay = $169

a) Find the expected value of the proposition.

Expected value of success in next 2 free throws = $\dfrac{390}{434}\times \dfrac{391}{435}=0.8077$

Expected value would be

$0.8077\times 40+(1-0.8077)\times -169\\\\=32.308-32.4987\\\\=-\$0.19$

b) If you played this game 588 times how much would you expect to win or lose?

Number of times they played the game = 588

So, Expected value would be

$588\times -0.19\\\\=-\$111.72$

Hence, a) -$0.19, b) -$111.72

An airplane must clear a 60-foot pole at the end of a runway 500 yards long determine the angle of elevation at which the airpla

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

2.3 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We are told that an airplane must clear a 60-foot pole at the end of a runway 500 yards long.

Let us convert 500 yards to feet.

1 yard= 3 feet.

500 yards= 3*500 feet= 1500 feet.

We can see from our attachment pole and runway are in form of a right triangle. The pole is opposite to angle of elevation of plane and length of runway is adjacent.

Since tangent represents the relation between opposite and adjacent of right triangle, So we will use tangent to find angle of elevation that plane must ascend to clear the pole.

$tan(\theta)=\frac{60}{1500}$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{60}{1500} )$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}(0.04)$

$\theta=2.290610042639$

Therefore, the airplane must ascend 2.3 degrees to clear the pole.
