Simplify 2/6 to 1/3

7/16 + b - 1/3 = 5/16

Simplify 7/16 + b - 1/3 to b + 5/48

b + 5/48 = 5/16

Subtract 5/48 from both sides

b = 5/16 - 5/48

Simplify 5/16 - 5/48 to 5/24

<u>b = 5/24</u>

The scheduled arrival time for a daily flight from Boston to New York is 9:30 am. Historical data show that the arrival time fol
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

a) E(A)=\frac{0+50}{2}=25 min

Sd(A) =\sqrt{208.3333 min^2}=14.43 min

b) P(A>25) = 1-P(A\leq 25)=1-\frac{25-0}{50-0}= 1-0.5 = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Let A the random variable that represent "The arrival time (minutes) for a daily flight from Boston to New York ". And we know that the distribution of A is given by:

A\sim Uniform(a=0 ,b=50)

We select our starting point a=0 representing 9:05 AM and the amount of minutes between 9:05 am to 9:55 am are 50 ans for this reason b =50

For ths uniform distribution the expected value is given by E(X) =\frac{a+b}{2} where X is the random variable, and a,b represent the limits for the distribution. If we apply this for our case we got:

E(A)=\frac{0+50}{2}=25 min

And the variance is given by:

Var(A)= \frac{(b-a)^2}{12}=\frac{(50-0)^2}{12}=208.3333 min^2

And the standard deviation by definition is just the square root of the variance:

Sd(A) =\sqrt{208.3333 min^2}=14.43 min

Part b

If we convert 9:30 AM to our scale we know that we have 25 minutes between 9:05 AM and 9:30 AM.

For this case we want to find this probability: P(A>25)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule like this:

P(A>25) = 1-P(A\leq 25)

And we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

F(A) = \frac{A-a}{b-a}

And we got:

P(A>25) = 1-P(A\leq 25)=1-\frac{25-0}{50-0}= 1-0.5 = 0.5

"find the equation of the line passing through the point (1,1) and perpendicular to the line y=5x-1 enter the exact answer. Use
arlik [135]

In this question, we have o find the equation of line passing through point (1,1) and is perpendicular to the line

y = 5 x-1

And slope of the given line is 5. And slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite and reciprocal of each other.

So slope of perpendicular line is

m = - \frac{1}{5}

Using slope intercept form, which is

y=mx+b

Substituting the values of x and y from the given point, and the value of m, we will get

1= -  \frac{1}{5} +b

adding 1/5 to both sides

1 + \frac{1}{5} = b&#10;\\&#10;b = \frac{6}{5}

So the required equation of line is

y = - \frac{1}{5} x + \frac{6}{5}
