Answer: Choice C)
(1/30)*(1/29)
Explanation:
Jack has a 1/30 chance of being picked since he is 1 person out of 30 total. After his name is picked, and not put back, there are 30-1 = 29 names left. The chances Jill is picked is 1/29. The two fractions are multiplied to get the overall probability both are picked.
We are given with the rate of change of the base, db/dt equal to 1 ft/ sec and the rate of change of the height of the triangle, dh/dt equal to 2 ft/sec. b is 10 ft and h is 70 ft. Area of triangle is equal to A= 0.5 bh The rate of change of the area is equal to dA/dt = 0.5 b dh/dt + 0.5 h db/dt. Substituting, dA= 0.5*10*2 + 0.5*70 * 1 equal to 45 ft2 / sec.
The 68-95-99.7 rule tells us 68% of the probability is between -1 standard deviation and +1 standard deviation from the mean. So we expect 75% corresponds to slightly more than 1 standard deviation.
Usually the unit normal tables don't report the area between -σ and σ but instead a cumulative probability, the area between -∞ and σ. 75% corresponds to 37.5% in each half so a cumulative probability of 50%+37.5%=87.5%. We look that up in the normal table and get σ=1.15.
So we expect 75% of normally distributed data to fall within μ-1.15σ and μ+1.15σ
That's 288.6 - 1.15(21.2) to 288.6 + 1.15(21.2)
Answer: 264.22 to 312.98
