I am going to graph the situation on an external graphing utility and show you the answer, it will take a
minute, stay with me.
So the equation of the line is.
I'd start by writing an equation for each of the right triangles. (Pythagorean theorem)
y² + 9² = z²
x² + z² = (4+9)²
4² + y² = x²
we want to find z so combine the equations by substituting the other variables x,y out.
substitute y² for (x² - 4²) in 1st equation.
(x² - 4²) + 9² = z²
now by rearranging the 2nd equation we can substitute x² for (13² - z²)
(13² - z²) - 4² + 9² = z²
169 - z² - 16 + 81 = z²
234 - z² = z²
234 = 2z²
234/2 = z²
117 = z²
√(117) = z
√(9*13) = z
3√(13) = z
13 goes in the box
Let x be the unknown number
x×55%=121
x=121÷55%
x=220
So 121 is 55% of 220
Answer:
a) 33.33%)
b) 135 minutes
c) 8.66 min
d) 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) the probability for a uniform distribution is
P(b<X<a) = (a-b)/(c-d) , where c and d are the maximum and minimum values
therefore the probability that the flight is more than 140 minutes ( and less than 150 since it is the maximum value)
P(140<X<150) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (150-140)/(150-120) = 10/30 = 1/3 (33.33%)
b) the mean (expected value) for a uniform probability distribution is
E(X) = (c+d)/2 = (120+150)/2 = 135 minutes
c) the standard deviation for a uniform probability distribution is
σ²(X)= (c-d)²/12 = (150-120)²/12 = 75 min²
σ = √75 min² = 8.66 min
b) following the same procedure as in a)
P(120<X<135) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (135-120)/(150-120) = 15/30 = 1/2 (50%)
