Suppose the commute times for employees of a large company follow a
normal distribution. If the mean time is 18 minutes and the standard
deviation is 5 minutes, 95% of the employees will have a travel time within
which range?
A. 13.25 minutes to 22.75 minutes
B. 8 minutes to 28 minutes

Answers

Answer 1

Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that 95% of the employees will have a travel time within the following range:

B. 8 minutes to 28 minutes.

What does the Empirical Rule state?

It states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of  the mean.Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Considering that the mean time is 18 minutes and the standard deviation is 5 minutes, the the bounds of the 95% range are given by:

18 - 2 x 5 = 8 minutes.18 + 2 x 5 = 28 minutes.

Hence option B is correct.

Answers

Answer: Choice A

40.61 square meters

==========================================================

Explanation:

The area of a full circle is

A = pi*r^2

meaning half of it (aka semicircle) will have this area

A = 0.5*pi*r^2

The diameter of the semicircle is 5.4 meters, which divides in half to get the radius of r = 2.7

The semicircle has an area of...

A = 0.5*pi*r^2

A = 0.5*3.14*(2.7)^2

A = 11.4453

which is approximate since pi = 3.14 is approximate.

Now compute the area of the triangle

area = base*height/2 = 5.4*10.8/2 = 29.16

Then add those sub-areas to get the grand total area.

semicircleArea + triangleArea = 11.4453+29.16 = 40.6053

That rounds to 40.61 which shows why choice A is the answer.

The points A(4, 3) and B(4, –5) are plotted on the coordinate plane. Rectangle ABCD has a perimeter of 30 units. If points C and D were plotted on the grid shown, what would their coordinates be if point C is below point D? Alt_text C: ( , ) D: ( , )

Answers

The possible coordinates of C and D are: C = (11,3) and D = (11,-5) or C = (-3,3) and D = (-3,-5)

How to determine the coordinates of C and D?

The given parameters are:

A = (4,3)

B = (4,-5)

Perimeter, P = 30 units

Since points A and B are on the same x-coordinate, then the distance between them is:

AB = 3 - - 5

AB = 8

The perimeter of the rectangle is calculated using:

P = 2 *(AB + CD)

This gives

2 * (8 + CD) = 30

Divide by 2

8 + CD = 15

Subtract 8 from both sides

CD = 7

This means that points C and D are 7 units from points A and B, respectively.

If A = (4,3) and B = (4,-5), then the possible coordinates of C and D are:

C = (11,3) and D = (11,-5) or C = (-3,3) and D = (-3,-5)

The perimeter of a figure refers to the sum of the side lengths of its edges.

Figure (a) : Triangle

⇒ P = 2a + 1 + 3a + a - 4

⇒ P = 6a - 3

P = 3 (2a - 1)

Figure (b) : Hexagon

⇒ P = 3m - 1 + 3n + n + m + 3m + 1 + 4n + m + n + 2

P = 8m + 9n + 2

If P is directly proportional to Q. And Q = 30 when P = 40. Find Q when P = 70

Answers

Answer:

Q = 52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given P is directly proportional to Q then the equation relating them is

P = kQ ← k is the constant of proportion

to find k use the condition Q = 30 when P = 40 , then

40 = 30k ( divide both sides by 30 )

[tex]\frac{40}{30}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] = k

P = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] Q ← equation of proportion

when P = 70 , then

70 = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] Q ( multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction )

210 = 4Q ( divide both sides by 4 )

52.5 = Q

Solve the system of equations 3x - 2y = 8 x-2y = 4​

Answers

Answer: (2, -1), or x = 2 and y = -1

By graphing:

   We can solve by graphing. See attached.

-> The solution is the point of intersection. The lines intersect at (2, -1) which means x is equal to 2 and y is equal to -1.

By substituting:

   We can solve this by substituting. It means we will substitute one equation into the other, then solve for the variables.

3x - 2y = 8

x - 2y = 4​ -> x = 2y + 4

-

3x - 2y = 8

3(2y + 4) - 2y = 8

6y + 12 - 2y = 8

4y = -4

y = -1

-

x - 2y = 4​

x - 2(-1) = 4​

x + 2 = 4

Sarah makes a red hair bow using 21 4/5 inches of ribbon. She makes a purple hair bow using 18 1/4 inches of ribbon.

How much more ribbon is used to make the red hair bow than the purple hair bow?

Answers

Answer:

91/20 or 4 11/20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the 2 amounts into improper fractions

Red: 21 4/5 = 114/5

Purple: 18 1/4 = 73/4

Then, using cross multiplication, you can give them the same denominator

Red: 114/5 = 456/20

Purple: 73/4 = 365/20

Then just subtract the numerators and keep the denominator

456/20 - 365/20 = 91/20

So your answer is

91/20 or 4 11/20

let's use the first point in our equation

• (-2, 10)

[tex]\large\text{$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$}[/tex]

m is the gradient.

Marci needs to rent a storage. She needs to determine the volume of the storage unit. If the storage unit is 8 feet high, what is the volume of the storage unit

Answers

Okay. I’m not just going to flat out give you the answer, but I’m also gonna explain how to find the answer.

First off, you only need one side to determine volume.

Volume = length x width x height.

Currently we know: volume = ? x ? x 8ft

Lets make an inference that the the storage is completely symmetrical, all sides even. That’d leave us with: volume = 8 x 8 x 8 which is also 8^3. With that being said, the volume of the storage unit is 512.
