Terri Vogel, an amateur motorcycle racer, averages 129.71 seconds per 2.5 mile lap (in a seven-lap race) with a standard deviation of 2.28 seconds. The distribution of her race times is normally distributed. We are interested in one of her randomly selected laps.


Find the percent of her laps that are completed in less than 134 seconds. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)



The fastest 5% of her laps are under how many seconds? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

97% of her laps are completed in less than 134 seconds.

The fastest 5% of her laps are under 125.96 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 129.71, \sigma = 2.28[/tex]

Find the percent of her laps that are completed in less than 134 seconds.

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 134. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{134 - 129.71}{2.28}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.88[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.88[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9699, so 97% of her laps are completed in less than 134 seconds.

The fastest 5% of her laps are under how many seconds?

This is the 5th percentile of times, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05, that is, X when Z = -1.645. So

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

[tex]-1.645 = \frac{X - 129.71}{2.28}[/tex]

[tex]X - 129.71 = -1.645*2.28[/tex]

[tex]X = 125.96[/tex]

The fastest 5% of her laps are under 125.96 seconds.

[tex]x1+2x2-x3=3, 2x1+x2-2x3=1, 3x1+4x2-5x3=5[/tex]

Answers

Answer: x1 = 0; x2 = 5/3; x3 = 1/3

x1 + 2x2 - x3 = 3 => 2x1 + 4x2 - 2x3 = 6

                                2x1 + x2 - 2x3 = 1

=> 4x2 - x2 = 5

⇔ 3x2 = 5

⇔ x2 = 5/3

with x2 = 5/3, we have: x1 - x3 = 3 - 10/3 = -1/3

                                        3x1 - 5x3 = 5 - 4.5/3 = -5/3

=> x1 = 0

    x3 = 1/3

(5pts) Recall that a standard deck of cards has 52 cards. The cards can be classified according to suits or denominations. There are 4 suits, hearts, diamonds, spades and clubs and there are 13 cards, each of a different denomination, in each suit. The 13 denominations are, Aces, Kings, Queens, ...,Twos, with 4 cards in each denomination (one of each suit). A poker hand consists of a sample of 5 cards drawn from the deck (without replacement). How many poker hands consist of 2 Aces, 2 Kings and a card of a different denomination?

Answers

Answer:

1584

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution of cards in a deck:

Total number of cards = 52

Total number of cards drawn = 5

Sampling without replacement :

Number of Aces = 4

Number of kings = 4

Card different from Aces and kings = total cards - (4 + 4) ;

52 - 8 = 44 cards

(Drawing 2 aces from 4) * (2 kings from 4) * 1 other card of different denomination)

Using combination :

4C2 * 4C2 * 44C1

Using calculator :

6 * 6 * 44

= 1584

How many books were sold after 8 months?

Answers

Answer:

3000 books

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct function that describes the number of books sold as a function of the number of months her ads have been posted is expressed as;

f(x) = 1000(∛x) + 1000

x is the number of months the ads have been posted

Required:

Number of books sold after 8 months

To get this we will substitute x = 8 into the expression given

f(8) = 1000(∛8) + 1000

f(8) = 1000(2) + 1000

f(8) = 2000 + 1000

f(8) = 3000

Hence the total number of books that were sold after 8 months is 3000 books

The length of a new rectangular playing field is 8 yards longer than quadruple the width. If the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 506 yards, what are its dimensions?
The width is

Answers

Answer:

The width of the field is 49 yards and the length is 204 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be b.

Length = 8+4b

The perimeter of the rectangle = 506 yards

The perimeter of the rectangle is given by :

P=2(l+b)

So,

506=2(8+4b+b)

253 = 8+5b

245 = 5b

b = 49 yards

Length, l = 8+4b

= 8+4(49)

= 204 yards

So, the width of the field is 49 yards and the length is 204 yards.

Bea is buying pens and pencils. Pens cost $2 and pencils cost $1. She plans on spending no more than $10 and wants to buy at least 10 items. Which two inequalities model this situation?

Answers

Well each pen costs $2 and each pencil costs $1.

One of the equations would be

2p + 1c ≤ 10

She doesn’t want to spend more than 10 dollars but wants to get 10 items. So she’ll be spending $10. For the pencils.

1c ≤ 10 c = 10

1(10) ≤ 10

10 ≤ 10

Now for the pens

2p ≤ 10

2. 2

P = 5

5 ≤ 10

Anymore will go over her budget. She wants to buy at least 10 items not 10 exactly so she can buy 5 pens or 10 pencils.
