In a health club, research shows that on average, patrons spend an average of 42.5 minutes on the treadmill, with a standard deviation of 4.8 minutes. It is assumed that this is a normally distributed variable. Find the probability that randomly selected individual would spent between 35 and 48 minutes on the treadmill.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.8155 = 81.55% probability that a randomly selected individual would spent between 35 and 48 minutes on the treadmill.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation for this problem are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 42.5, \sigma = 4.8[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected individual would spent between 35 and 48 minutes on the treadmill is the p-value of Z when X = 48 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 35, hence:

X = 48:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{48 - 42.5}{4.8}[/tex]

Z = 1.15

Z = 1.15 has a p-value of 0.8749.

X = 35:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{35 - 42.5}{4.8}[/tex]

Z = -1.56

Z = -1.56 has a p-value of 0.0594.

0.8749 - 0.0594 = 0.8155.

0.8155 = 81.55% probability that a randomly selected individual would spent between 35 and 48 minutes on the treadmill.

Find k so the product of the roots is -4 if 3x² + 5x + 3k = 0

Answers

Answer:

k = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given a quadratic equation in standard form

ax² + bx + c = 0 ( a ≠ 0 ) , then the product of the roots is [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex]

3x² + 5x + 3k = 0 ← is in standard form

with a = 3 and c = 3k , then

[tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex] = - 4 , that is

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

3k = - 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

We can solve for x by equating the two ratios:

a/b = 6/8 = 3/4

We can conclude that x is equal to 3/4.

To find the value of x in the given scenario, where triangles AABC and ADEF are similar, we can use the concept of corresponding sides in similar triangles.

From the given information, we know that the lengths of sides AB and DE are in proportion with each other, as the triangles are similar. Let's denote the length of AB as a and the length of DE as b. Similarly, let's denote the length of BC as c and the length of EF as d.

Since the corresponding sides are in proportion, we can set up the following equation:

AB/DE = BC/EF

Substituting the given values, we have:

a/b = 6/8

To find the value of x, we need to determine the ratio of the corresponding side lengths. Dividing both sides of the equation by 6, we get:

a/6 = b/8

Cross-multiplying, we have:

8a = 6b

Now, we can solve for x by equating the two ratios:

a/b = 6/8 = 3/4

We can conclude that x is equal to 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the total amount of liquid in the pot, we need to add the volume of the broth and the volume of the water.

The broth has a volume of 500 milliliters, and the water has a volume of 1,500 milliliters. Adding these together, we get:

500 mL + 1,500 mL = 2,000 mL

Since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter, we can convert the volume to liters:

2,000 mL ÷ 1,000 = 2 liters

Therefore, the total amount of liquid in the pot is 2 liters.

A rectangle has an area of 114cm squared and a perimeter of 50 cm. What are its dimensions

Answers

Answer:

width = 6

length = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(length + width) or P = 2(l + w)

2(l + w) = 50

l + w = 25

l = 25 - w

Area = length x width or A = lw

lw = 114

Substitute l = 25 - w into the lw = 114

(25 - w)w = 114

25w - w^2 = 114

-w^2 + 25w - 114 = 0

=> w^2 - 25w + 114 = 0

we have x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2a

w = [-(-25) ± √((-25)^2 - 4(1)(114)))] / 2(1)

w = [25 ± √(625 - 456)] / 2

w = [25 ± √(169)]/2

w = [25 ± 13]/2

w = [25 + 13]/2 = 38/2 = 14

or

w = [25 - 13]/2 = 12/2 = 6

if width = 14, length = 25 - 14 = 11

then area = 14 x 11 = 154, this is incorrect answer

if width = 6, length = 25 - 6 = 19

then area = 6 x 19 = 114, this is correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

We know 1 of them (angle B) is 90 degrees.

We can set up an equation to solve the others.

2x+3x+x+90 = 360

Now solve for x.

Start by combining the x terms together.

6x+90 = 360

6x = 360-90

6x = 270

(6x/6) = 270/6

x = 45 degrees

Check back to see if that makes sense and if the equation equals 360 when x is 45:

2x+3x+x+90 = 360

2(45)+3(45)+45+90=360.

The distribution of monthly charges for cellphone plans in the United States is approximately normal with a mean of $62 and a standard deviation of $18. What percentage of plans have charges that are less than $83.60?

Answers

About 88.49% of cellphone plans have charges that are less than $83.60.

How to determine the percentage of plans have charges that are less than $83.60?

To determine the percentage of plans that have charges less than $83.60, we need to find the z-score (z) using the given mean and standard deviation, and then look up the corresponding area under the normal distribution curve.

z = (x – μ) / σ

where x = 83.60, mean, μ =  62 and standard deviation, σ = 18

Thus, the z-score of $83.60 is:

z = (83.60 - 62) / 18 = 1.2

Using a standard normal distribution table, we can find that the area to the left of z = 1.20 is 0.8849 or 88.49% (check image attached).

Therefore, about 88.49% of cellphone plans have charges that are less than $83.60.

Given that,

(a) Based on the central limit theorem, the normal distribution may be used to approximate the fraction of persons in the sample who have a high school diploma.

The mean proportion of individuals in the population who have earned their high school diploma can be estimated as

⇒ 879/1600 = 0.5494.

The standard deviation can be estimated as the square root of (0.5494*(1-0.5494)/1600)

=0.0158

b) To find the probability that at least 88% of the sample of 1600 young Americans will have earned their high school diploma,

We need to use the normal distribution with a mean of 0.5494 and a standard deviation of 0.0158.

We can standardize the value of 88% to the corresponding z-score:

z = (0.88 - 0.5494) / 0.0158

  = 20.99

Using a standard normal distribution table or calculator, we find that the probability of a z-score this large or larger is essentially zero,

A square piece of sheet metal (24 in x 24 in)
is used to make an open box (no lid). Equal

edges are folded up to make the box.
What is the maximum volume, V, of the box?

Answers

The maximum volume of the box is 864 cubic inches.

Let side length of the square cut from each corner is x inches.

After cutting the squares from each corner, the remaining dimensions of the sheet metal will be:

Length: 24 - 2x inches

Width: 24 - 2x inches

Height: x inches

So, the volume of the box

V = (24 - 2x) (24 - 2x)  x

V = x(24 - 2x)²

To find the maximum volume, we can take the derivative of V with respect to x, set it to zero, and solve for x:

dV/dx = (24 - 2x)² - 2x(24 - 2x) = 0

4x² - 96x + 576 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation,

x = 6 and x = 12.

We can substitute x = 6 into the volume equation to find the maximum volume:

V = 6(24 - 2(6))²

V = 6(12)²

V = 6 x 144

V = 864 cubic inches

Therefore, the maximum volume of the box is 864 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To conclude that x+2=0 or x+6=0 from the equation (x+2)(x+6)=0, one must use the zero product property.

The zero product property states that if the product of two factors is equal to zero, then at least one of the factors must be equal to zero. In this case, if (x+2)(x+6)=0, it means that the product of (x+2) and (x+6) is zero. Therefore, we can conclude that either (x+2) = 0 or (x+6) = 0, based on the zero product property.

Each ace corresponds to a different suit: clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spades.

So, when we talk about the event of selecting an ace, we are referring to the act of choosing one of these four specific cards from the deck.

The sample points in the event "an ace is selected" are the individual cards that match this criteria.

Therefore, the sample points in this event are:
