Divide 48 by 100 (48/100*)

Then, multiply by the given percentage, 5.8%

→ The formula to find percentage is to divide the found number by 100 and then multiply by the closest given number.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is 0.0321.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the number of hours spent studying the week before final exams was normally distributed with mean 25 and standard deviation 15.

A sample of 36 students was selected.

Let $\bar X$ = sample average time spent studying

The z-score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean hours spent studying = 25 hours

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 15 hours

n = sample of students = 36

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X.

Now, Probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is given by = P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours)

P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = P( $\bar X$ < 30 hours) - P( $\bar X$ $\leq$ 29 hours)

P( $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = P( $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ < $\frac{ 30-25}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{36} } }} }$ ) = P(Z < 2) = 0.97725

P( $\bar X$ $\leq$ 29 hours) = P( $\frac{ \bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }} }$ $\leq$ $\frac{ 29-25}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{36} } }} }$ ) = P(Z $\leq$ 1.60) = 0.94520

So, in the z table the P(Z $\leq$ x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2 and x = 1.60 in the z table which has an area of 0.97725 and 0.94520 respectively.

Therefore, P(29 hours < $\bar X$ < 30 hours) = 0.97725 - 0.94520 = 0.0321

Hence, the probability that the average time spent studying for the sample was between 29 and 30 hours studying is 0.0321.

Find the least common denominator for these fractions. Enter your answer in the space provided.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 and 1/6 are fractions.

As we directly can't add fractions whenever denominators are different, so we will have to find out the Least common multiple of 4 and 6.

The LCM Of 4&6 will be 12, so we will write 12 instead of 4&6.

Now, 4*3=12, that is why we will have to multiply the numerator and denominator with 3.

1*3/4*3 = 3/12

Same thing applies to 1/6. In order to get 12 in the denominator we need to multiply 2 with numerator and denominator both.

1*2/6*2= 2/12

However, we have two new fractions with same denominator now, that is 3/12 and 2/12

We can directly add the numerators now, as we have the same denominator. So 3+2/12= 5/12 would be my final answer. (addition of like fractions)

5/12
