The Customer Service Center in a large New York department store has determined that the amount of time spent with a customer about a complaint is normally distributed, with a mean of 8.9 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.8 minutes. What is the probability that for a randomly chosen customer with a complaint, the amount of time spent resolving the complaint will be as follows. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)


(a) less than 10 minutes


(b) longer than 5 minutes


(c) between 8 and 15 minutes

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.6517 = 65.17%

b) 0.0823 = 8.23%.

c) 0.6109 = 61.09%.

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 are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 8.9, \sigma = 2.8[/tex]

Item a:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 10, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{10 - 8.9}{2.8}[/tex]

Z = 0.39

Z = 0.39 has a p-value of 0.6517.

0.6517 = 65.17% probability that the time is less than 10 minutes.

Item b:

The probability is the one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 5, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{5 - 8.9}{2.8}[/tex]

Z = -1.39

Z = -1.39 has a p-value of 0.0823.

0.0823 = 8.23% probability that the time is more than 5 minutes.

Item c:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 15 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 8, hence:

X = 15:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{15 - 8.9}{2.8}[/tex]

Z = 2.18

Z = 2.18 has a p-value of 0.9854.

X = 8:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{8 - 8.9}{2.8}[/tex]

Z = -0.32

Z = -0.32 has a p-value of 0.3745.

0.9854 - 0.3745 = 0.6109 = 61.09%.

The graph is of a function in the form p(t) = a*b^t. What is the function?

Answers

Answer:

  p(t) = 5*2^t

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for 'a' and 'b' using the point coordinates shown on the graph.

Setup

Substituting for (t, p(t)), the two equations we can make from the given points are ...

  p(t) = a*b^t

  5 = a*b^0 . . . . . . . (t, p(t)) = (0, 5)

  10 = a*b^1 . . . . . . . (t, p(t)) = (1, 10)

Solution

The first equation tells you ...

  5 = a

The second equation tells you ...

  10 = 5*b

  2 = b

Equation

The function is ...

  p(t) = a*b^t

  p(t) = 5*2^t

Step-by-step explanation:

OK, I think you can prove this with the theorem that any prime greater than 3 is 6n-1 or 6n+1, for integer n. In other words, any prime is near a multiple of 6; it is either one less or one more. The proof for this is very easy, look it up.

Given this fact, if two primes (p,q) are 70 a part, this means the first one has to be a case of 6n+1 and the second one has to be a case of 6n-1. Why? Because the nearest multiple of 6 is 72 and with +1 on one end and -1 on the other end, you can reach a "gap" of 70.

Now for the next two primes (q,r) the same must hold. Only, it can't because this requires q to be both 6n-1 and 6n+1.

Which statements are true? Select three options.

The probability of drawing brown candies , orange candies,  yellow candies, red candies, green candies is 0.323 , 0.231 , 0.154 , 0.215 ,0.077

What is Probability ?

Probability is the study of likeliness of an event to happen.

It is given that a bag of  candies that have

21 brown candies

15 orange candies,

10 yellow candies,

14 red candies,

5 green candies,

probabilities of drawing each candy =?

Total Candies = 21 +15+10+14+5 = 65

Probability = No. of chances / Total outcomes

Probability of drawing Brown candies = P(B) = 21 /65 =  0.323

Probability of drawing Yellow candies = P(Y)= 10/65= 0.154

Probability of drawing Orange candies = P(O) = 15/65=  0.231

Probability of drawing Red candies =P( R) = 14/65= 0.215

Probability of drawing Green candies = P(G) = 5/65= 0.077

Therefore the probability of drawing brown candies , orange candies,  yellow candies, red candies, green candies is 0.323 , 0.231 , 0.154 , 0.215 ,0.077.

Which functions have a maximum and are transformed to the left and down of the parent function, f(x)=x2? Check

s(x) = –(x − 1)? +0.5

g(x) = 2x² + 10x-35

t(x) = -2x² - 4x - 3

Answers

Using translation concepts, the functions that have a maximum and are transformed to the left and down of the parent function are given by:

g(x) = -5(x + 10)² - 1t(x) = -2x² - 4x - 3

What is a translation?

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

For the translations, we have that:

Shift left, hence x -> x + a, a > 0.Shift down, hence y -> y - a, a > 0.Having a maximum means that the leading coefficient is negative.

The functions that respect these conditions are:

g(x) = -5(x + 10)² - 1t(x) = -2x² - 4x - 3 = -2(x² + 2x) - 3 = -2(x + 1)² - 1

Answers

Answer:

  $6.70 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to compare the pay for 1 hour's work.

Melanie's pay

The equation tells us that her pay for working 1 hour can be found from the equation using x=1.

  y = 22.2x

  y = 22.2×1 = 22.2 . . . . pay for 1 hour

Melanie earns $22.20 per hour.

Olivia's pay

We assume that Olivia's pay is proportional to hours worked, so pay for 40 hours will be 40 times 1 hour's pay.

  pay per hour = $1156/(40 h) = $28.90/h

Olivia earns $28.90 per hour.

Pay difference

The difference in their rates of pay is ...

  $28.90 -22.20 = $6.70

Melanie earns $6.70 less per hour than Olivia.
