The number of potholes in any given 1 mile stretch of freeway pavement in Pennsylvania has a bell-shaped distribution. This distribution has a mean of 42 and a standard deviation of 10. Using the empirical (68-95-99.7) rule, what is the approximate percentage of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 22 and 52

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

81.5% of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 22 and 52

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 42, standard deviation of 10.

The normal distribution is symmetric, so 50% of the measures are below the mean and 50% are above the mean

Approximate percentage of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 22 and 52:

22 = 42 - 2*10

So 22 is two standard deviations below the mean. Of the 50% of the measures that are below the mean, 95% are between two standard deviations below the mean(22) and the mean(42).

52 = 42 + 10

So 42 is one standard deviation above the mean. Of the 50% of the measures that are above the mean, 60% are between the mean(42) and one standard deviation above the mean(52).

In the desired interval, the percentage is:

[tex]P = 0.5*0.95 + 0.5*0.68 = 0.815[/tex]

81.5% of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 22 and 52

Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher was an English statistician, evolutionary biologist, and geneticist who worked on a data set that contained sepal length and width (in millimeters), and petal length and width (in millimeters) from three species of iris flowers (setosa, versicolor and virginica). There were 57 flowers from each species in the data set. . The first six rows of the data set are shown below:

1. How many cases were included in the data?
2. How many numerical variables are included in the data?
3. The numerical variables are: ______

a. all continuous
b. a mixture of continuous and discrete
c. all discrete

Answers

Answer:

171

4 numerical variables (Sepal Length ; Sepal Width ; Petal Length ; Petal Width)

All four numerical variables are continous.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cases = Number of species * number of flowers per species

Number of cases = 3 * 57 = 171 cases

B.) Numerical variables are those variables which are quantitative in nature, that is they are made of numbers which are capable of being used for mathematical computation in a dataset such as maximum, minimum, mean and slither statistical measures.

C.) All for variables are continous as they are capable of taking up unlimited number of values within its range, including decimal values. Hence they are not finite. Continous numberical variables include, length, height, width and as given in the scenario below, they are all continous.

We drop a 0.1 kg apple 1 m.What is its potential energy?

Answers

Answer:

392 N/m

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total mechancial enery will be conserved from when the apple drops to when it hit the spring.  Therefore, we can set the potential energy of the apple equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring.

PE = mgh and SE = 1/2kx² — PE is the initial potential energy of the apple and SE is the elastic potential energy of the spring.

mgh = 1/2kx².  (.1)(9.8)(2) = (1/2)(k)(.1²), solve for k. k = 392

The linear scale factor of two similar solids is given. Then the surface area and volume of the smaller figure are also given. Find the surface area and volume of the large figure.

Scale factor: 5:8

Surface area: 475

volume: 1125

Surface area: ?

volume: ?

Answers

Answer:

Surface area: 1216

Volume: 4608

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale factor: 5:8

This means that the dimensions of the larger figure are 8/5 of those in the smaller figure.

Surface area:

The surface area is found multiplying the square of the change(8/5) by the original surface area(475). So

[tex]S = (\frac{8}{5})^2 \times 475 = \frac{64}{25} \times 475 = 64 \times 19 = 1216[/tex]

Volume:

The volume is found multiplying the cube of the change(8/5) by the original volume(1125). So

[tex]S = (\frac{8}{5})^3 \times 1125 = \frac{512}{125} \times 1125 = 512 \times 9 = 4608[/tex]

How many seconds will it take to drive to San Francisco from Los Angeles if an average speed of 67.0 mi/hr is maintained

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 20525 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between San Francisco and Los Angeles is not given.

Therefore, by using I-5 S, distance between these cities = 381.6

                                                                                             ≈ 382 miles

Formula for the average speed is,

Average speed = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time taken}}[/tex]

Time taken to reach San Francisco from Los Angeles = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Average speed}}[/tex]

                                                                                       = [tex]\frac{382}{67}[/tex]

                                                                                       = 5.702 hours

                                                                                       ≈ 5 hours 42 minutes

                                                                                       ≈ 342.1 minutes

                                                                                       ≈ 20525 seconds

State two ways that you could use a slope of -5/3 to graph a line.

Answers

Answer:

rise/run

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 how high/ low you go on y axis

3 how far you move left on the graph

The two ways that could use a slope of -5/3 to graph a line are;

-5 high/ low and go on the y-axis and 3 when moving left on the graph

What is the slope?

The slope is the ratio of the vertical changes to the horizontal changes between two points of the line.

The more the slope of the line, the more the line is vertical. When the slope is zero, then the line is horizontal.

To determine the slope, we take the ratio of how much the line's height increases as we go forward or backward on the horizontal axis.

If two lines are given as perpendicular to each other, then their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. which means, if one line's slope is 'a', then its perpendicular line's slope would be -1/a

A Slope of a straight object is the ratio of how much amount of rise occurs in correspondence to the increment in the run.

If (p, q) is the solution to the system of equations, what is the value of q?

−16p − 2q = 100
p − 4q = 200

Answers

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations

p = 0q = -50

Hence, the value of q = -50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-16p-2q=100\\ p-4q=200\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

solving to determine the value of q

Multiply p − 4q = 200 by 16:      [tex]16p-64q=3200[/tex]

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-16p-2q=100\\ 16p-64q=3200\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

so adding the equations

[tex]16p-64q=3200[/tex]

[tex]+[/tex]

[tex]\underline{-16p-2q=100}[/tex]

[tex]-66q=3300[/tex]

so

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-16p-2q=100\\ -66q=3300\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

solve -66q = 3300

[tex]-66q=3300[/tex]

Divide both sides by -66

[tex]\frac{-66q}{-66}=\frac{3300}{-66}[/tex]

[tex]q=-50[/tex]

substituting q = -50 in −16p − 2q = 100

[tex]-16p-2\left(-50\right)=100[/tex]

[tex]-16p+100=100[/tex]

Subtract 100 from both sides

[tex]-16p+100-100=100-100[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]-16p=0[/tex]

Divide both sides by -16

[tex]\frac{-16p}{-16}=\frac{0}{-16}[/tex]

[tex]p=0[/tex]

Thus, the solution to the system of equations

p = 0q = -50

Hence, the value of q = -50

Answers

Answer:

0.674

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Average value (m) = 25

P(x < 28) = ∫1/m * e^-x/m (interval 28 to 0)

P(x < 28) = ∫1/25 * e^-x/25 (interval 28 to 0)

P(x < 28) = 1/25( (e^-x/25) / (- 1 / 25))(interval 28 to 0)

1/25( (e^-x/25) * (- 25/ 1)) (interval 28 to 0)

(e^-x/25) x = 28 ; x = 0

e^(-0/25) - e^(-28/25)

e^0 - e^(-28/25)

(4+g)(-11)=121 pls show work whoever has answers first with right answer gets brainliest

Answers

Answer:

g = -15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you are going to want to divide by -11 on both sides of the equation.

— (4 + g) (-11) / -11 = 121 / -11

— 4 + g = -11

(Note: dividing a positive number by a negative number will result in a negative number.)

Next, subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.

— 4 + g - 4 = -11 - 4

— g = -15

So, assuming you are looking for the value of g, you're answer is g = -15
