2. CTfastrak bus waiting times are uniformly distributed from zero to 20 minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger will wait the following times for a CTfastrak bus. b. Between 5 and 10 minutes. c. Exactly 7.5922 minutes. d. Exactly 5 minutes. e. Between 15 and 25 minutes.
Answer:
b. 0.25
c. 0.05
d. 0.05
e. 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
if the waiting time x follows a uniformly distribution from zero to 20, the probability that a passenger waits exactly x minutes P(x) can be calculated as:
[tex]P(x)=\frac{1}{b-a}=\frac{1}{20-0} =0.05[/tex]
Where a and b are the limits of the distribution and x is a value between a and b. Additionally the probability that a passenger waits x minutes or less P(X<x) is equal to:
[tex]P(X<x)=\frac{x-a}{b-a}=\frac{x-0}{20-0}=\frac{x}{20}[/tex]
Then, the probability that a randomly selected passenger will wait:
b. Between 5 and 10 minutes.
[tex]P(5<x<10) = P(x<10) - P(x<5)\\P(5<x<10) = \frac{10}{20} -\frac{5}{20}=0.25[/tex]
c. Exactly 7.5922 minutes
[tex]P(7.5922)=0.05[/tex]
d. Exactly 5 minutes
[tex]P(5)=0.05[/tex]
e. Between 15 and 25 minutes, taking into account that 25 is bigger than 20, the probability that a passenger will wait between 15 and 25 minutes is equal to the probability that a passenger will wait between 15 and 20 minutes. So:
[tex]P(15<x<25)=P(15<x<20) \\P(15<x<20)=P(x<20) - P(x<15)\\P(15<x<20) = \frac{20}{20} -\frac{15}{20}=0.25[/tex]

Which value of a in the exponential function below would cause the function to shrink? f(x) = a(three-halves) Superscript x Four-fifths Five-fourths Three-halves Seven-fourths
Answer:
Four-fifths
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know that
By multiplying the function by a constant, we may expand or shrink the function in the y-direction.
Now we have
[tex]y=a(b^{x})[/tex]
if [tex]a> 1[/tex] > the function would enlarge
if [tex]0< a < 1[/tex] > the function would shrinks
Now
For case A
[tex]a = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]
[tex]0 < (\frac{4}{5} )< 1[/tex] ....... > the function would shrinks
For case B
[tex]a = \frac{5}{4}[/tex]
[tex](\frac{5}{4} )>1[/tex] .......> the function would enlarge
For case C
[tex]a = \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
[tex](\frac{3}{2} )>1[/tex] .........> the function would enlarge
For case D
[tex]a = \frac{7}{4}[/tex]
[tex](\frac{7}{4} )>1[/tex] .........> the function would enlarge
Therefore the second option is correct

n a random sample of 10 residents of the state of Florida, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 2.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.64 pounds. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places
Answer:
The critical value is T = 2.2622.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 10 - 1 = 9
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.2622, which is the critical value.
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 2.2622*0.64 = 1.448
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2.8 - 1.448 = 1.352 pounds
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.8 + 1.448 = 4.248 pounds
The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.

In the western region of the state the times of all boys running in this event are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds, but with mean 5 minutes 22 seconds. Find the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet. (Hint: normalcdf)
Here is the full question.
The average finishing time among all high school boys in a particular track event in a certain state is 5 minutes 17 seconds. Times are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds.
A. The qualifying time in this event for participation in the state meet is to be set so that only the fastest 5% of all runners qualify. Find the qualifying time in seconds (round it to the closest second). (Hint: Convert minutes to seconds.)
B. In the western region of the state the times of all boys running in this event are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds, but with mean 5 minutes 22 seconds. Find the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet. (Hint: normalcdf)
Answer:
a. x ≅ 337 seconds.
b. P(x > 337 ) = 0.1056
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
Given that ;
Mean [tex]\mu =[/tex] 5 minutes 17 seconds =( (60× 5)+17 ) seconds = 317 seconds ( since 60 seconds make 1 minute.
Standard deviation: [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 12 seconds.
Only the fastest 5% of all runners qualify
The objective is to determine the qualifying time in seconds
Let's look for the Z-score of 0.95;
The Z-score is 1.645 from the tables
[tex]x= ( \sigma * z ) + \mu[/tex]
[tex]x = ( 12 * 1.645 ) + 317 \\ \\x = 336.74[/tex]
x ≅ 337 seconds.
B. Given that the standard deviation = 12 seconds
Mean = 5 minutes 22 seconds = (5 × 60 + 22 )seconds = 322 seconds
he objective is to find P(x > 337 ) i.e the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet.
we are using command normalcdf (SEE THE ATTACHED FILE BELOW FOR THE COMPUTATION)
we have P(x > 337 ) = 0.1056

You are at a playground with a see-saw and a large merry-go-round. You put your phone on the see-saw and find it slides when it is tilted at an angle of 38 degrees. How far can you put your phone from the center of the merry-go-round (in m) when it makes one rotation every 3 s
Answer: r_max = 1.75m
Step-by-step explanation:
Below is a rather brief analysis to solving this problem.
The phone starts sliding when along incline,
when F_net = m g sin(theta) - fs_max = 0
and fs_max = us N = us m g cos(theta)
m g sin(theta) - us m g cos(theta) =
us = tan(theta) = tan38 = 0.781
On merry - go - round,
fs_max = us N = us m g
Using F = m a
fs_max = m w^2 r_max and w = 2pi / T
us m g = m (2 pi / T)^2 (r_max)
0.781 x 9.81 = (2 pi / 3)^2 (r_max)
r_max = 1.75 m

Which of the following is an example of theoretical probability?
O A. Lisa attempted 25 basketball free throws and made 14 of them.
The probability Lisa will make a free throw is
14
25
O B. Mike invited 10 friends to a party, and 7 of them said yes. The
probability that a friend will say yes is
7
10
O C. Kelli put 6 red marbles and 5 blue marbles in a bag. The probability
of selecting a red marble is
6
11
O D. Tony listened to 40 songs on the radio and liked 29 of them. The
probability he will like a song is
29
40
The correct answer is C. Kelli put 6 red marbles and 5 blue marbles in a bag. The probability of selecting a red marble is 6 /11
Explanation:
Theoretical probability occurs as you calculate the probability of a specific outcome in a situation, without experimenting or observing it. Because of this, the probability is theoretical rather than experimental. Also, you can know this, if you divide the number of specific favorable outcomes by the total of possible outcomes.
Option C shows a theoretical probability because this is the only case the probability has not been observed or experimented. Also, expressing the probability as 6/11 is completely correct because 6 is the total of red marbles(possible desired outcomes), while 11 is the total marbles (possible outcomes).

A car is discounted 10% and sells for $15,673. What was the discount amount?
Answer:
$1741.44
Step-by-step explanation:
The discounted amount is 100% -10% = 90% of the original. The amount of the discount is 10% of the original, or 1/9 of the discounted amount:
10% = 90% × 1/9
The discount was ...
$15,673/9 = 1,741.44
_____
Check
The original is the sum of the discounted amount and the discount:
original price = $15,673.00 +1,741.44 = $17, 414.44
10% of that value is 1,741.44, as shown above.

at an ice cream shop, thirty cups of ice cream costs $105. what is the cost of one cup of ice cream? what is the cost of 18 cups of ice cream??
Hey there! :)
Answer:
Price per cup: $3.5
Price for 18 cups: $63.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the cost of a single cup of ice cream, we can set up an equation where 'x' equals the price of a cup of ice cream.
30x = 105
Divide both sides by 30:
x = $3.5.
To find the cost of 18 cups, simply multiply this price by 18:
18 × 3.5 = $63 dollars. This is the price for 18 cups of ice cream.
Which graph represents viable values for y = 2x, where x is the number of pounds of rice scooped and purchased from a bulk bin at the grocery store and y is the total cost of the rice? On a coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope begins at point (0, 0), and ends at point (2.5, 5). On a coordinate plane, blue diamonds appear at points (0, 0), (1, 2), (2, 4). On a coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope begins at point (negative 2.5, negative 5), crosses the x- and y-axis at point (0, 0), and ends at point (2.5, 5). On a coordinate plane, blue diamonds appear at points (negative 2, negative 4), (negative 1, negative 2), (0, 0), (1, 2), (2, 4). Mark this and return
Answer:
On a coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope begins at point (0, 0), and ends at point (2.5, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The distinction between "straight line" and "blue diamonds" is that the straight line represents the relation for all possible values of x. The blue diamonds show the values of y for very specific values of x.
Since x is the amount of rice from a bulk bin, we assume it can take any non-negative value. Hence, the graphs with negative values or with "blue diamonds" are not appropriate.
The straight-line graph in the first quadrant is the best choice.
Answer:
The answer is graph 1
Step-by-step explanation:
On a coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope begins at point (0, 0), and ends at point (2.5, 5).
Makeeya only has $25 to spend on a custom T-shirt. It costs $10 for a plain T-shirt, and there is a charge of $$1.50 for each square inch of design added to the T-shirt. Which solution represents the number of square inches of design,x , Makeeya can put on her T-shirt?
Answer:
10 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
cost of a plain t-shirt = $10
cost of 1 square inch of design addition = $1.50
let there be x square inches of design
then cost of x square inches of design = x*cost of 1 square inch of design
= 1.50*x = 1.5x
Total cost for t-shirt with x square inches of design = cost of a plain t-shirt + cost of x square inches of design = 10 + 1.5 x
It is given that Makeeya has only $25, then total cost which can be afforded by him will be $25 only
Thus,
10 + 1.5 x = 25
=> 1.5x = 25-10 = 15
=> x = 15/1.5 = 10
Thus, Makeeya can put 10 square inches of design on her T-shirt.
ASK YOUR TEACHER Two streets meet at an 84° angle. At the corner, a park is being built in the shape of a triangle. Find the area of the park if, along one road, the park measures 190 feet, and along the other road, the park measures 235 feet. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
22,203 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle with angle ∅ and two sides a and b is;
Area A = 1/2 × absin∅ ......1
The park is in the shape of a triangle, with two sides and an angle given;
Given;
a = 190 ft
b = 235 ft
∅ = 84°
Substituting the values into equation 1;
Area of the park;
A = 1/2 × 190 × 235 × sin84°
A = 22,202.70131409 ft^2
A = 22,203 ft^2 (to the nearest whole number)
Area of the park is 22,203 ft^2
Find the number of ways of arranging the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, if no two even numbers can be adjacent, and no two odd numbers can be adjacent.
Answer:
24 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
1) In Combinatorics when we arrange a number and the order matter, we call it arrange the possibilities. For this exercise let's not use formulas but reasoning.
2) For this case we need a two figure number. Since we have seven numbers.
Since there is no repetition, all the possibilities are:
[tex]7*6=42[/tex]
3) But there is a restriction it's forbidden adjacent even and odd numbers: These numbers we don't want them:
13 15 17
24 26
31 35 37
42 46
51 53 57
62 66
71 73 75
18 non desirable results
The total arrangements minus the not possible combinations, will match the possible results:
[tex]42-18=24[/tex]
3) Just for checking, we have here the allowed combinations:
12 14 16
21 23 25 27
32 34 36
41 43 45 47
52 54 56
61 63 65 67
72 74 76
A total of 24 possible ways.

Statistics show that about 42% of Americans voted in the previous national election. If three Americans are randomly selected, what is the probability that none of them voted in the last election
Answer:
19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election
Step-by-step explanation:
For each American, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they voted in the previous national election, or they did not. The probability of an American voting in the previous election is independent of other Americans. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
42% of Americans voted in the previous national election.
This means that [tex]p = 0.42[/tex]
Three Americans are randomly selected
This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
What is the probability that none of them voted in the last election
This is P(X = 0).
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.42)^{0}.(0.58)^{3} = 0.1951[/tex]
19.51% probability that none of them voted in the last election

How long is a average teen suppose to be
Answer:
The way adolescents spend their time can strongly influence their health later in life. For youth to maintain a healthy future, they need plenty of sleep; good nutrition; regular exercise; and time to form relationships with family, friends, and caring adults. Additionally, the time adolescents spend in school and in after-school activities with peers and adults can advance healthy academic, emotional, social, and physical development. The amount of time they spend on screens and in social media may also influence adolescents’ overall well-being.
The American Time Use Survey, collected by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, contains detailed information about how individuals ages 15 and older use their time and provides a picture of a typical weekday and weekend day for a high school teen during the school year. Here we specifically analyze how adolescents ages 15-19 who are enrolled in high school spend their time.
Step-by-step explanation:
