Answer:

($13,300,$46,900)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in he question:

Mean, μ = $30,100

Standard Deviation, σ = $5,600

Chebyshev's Theorem:

  • According to  theorem atleast 1 - \dfrac{1}{k^2}  percent of data lies within 2 standard deviations of mean.
  • For k = 3,

1 -\dfrac{1}{(3)^2} = 0.889 \approx 89\%

Thus, 89% of data lies within three standard deviation of mean.

\mu - 3(\sigma) = 30100 - 3(5600) = 13300\\\mu + 3(\sigma) = 30100 + 3(5600) = 46900

Thus, we expect at least 89% of new car prices to fall within ($13,300,$46,900)

What is the length of line segment EF if DE is 6ft and DF is 11ft and angle FDE is 40 degrees​
Anna [14]

Answer:

The length of EF = 7.48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets consider these tree segment formed triangle DEF

- We have the length of two sides and the measure of the

  including angle between these two sides

* So we can use the cos Rule to find the length of the third side

- The cos rule ⇒ a² = b² + c² - 2bc cosA

# a is the side opposite to angle A

# b is the side opposite to angle B

# c is the side opposite to angle C

# Angle A is the including angle between b and c

* In the problem

∵ DE = 6 feet

∵ DF = 11 feet

∵ m∠FDE = 40° ⇒ including angle between DE and DF

  and opposite to EF

- By using cos Rule

∴ (EF)² = (DE)² + (DF)² - 2(DE)(DF) cos∠FDE

∴ (EF)² = (6)² + (11)² - 2(6)(11) cos(40)

∴ (EF)² = 55.882133 ⇒ take square root for both sides

∴ EF = 7.47543 ≅ 7.48 feet

* The length of EF = 7.48 feet

On a state map, a cartographer plots Texmath at coordinates (2, 2) and Lonestar Village at coordinates (9, 16). How far is it fr
Digiron [165]

Since two points are given, we can use the distance formula in order to know hpw far is it from Texmath to Lonestar Village. Distance formula is written as

Distance = \sqrt{ ( x_{2} - x_{1}  )^{2} +(y_{2} - y_{1}  )^{2}  }

Substituting the values, we have:

Distance = \sqrt{ ( 9-2 )^{2} +(16-2)^{2} }

= \sqrt{7^2 +14^2}

= √245 = 15.65 units

If the parabola of the form y = a(x – h)2 + k is always shifted horizontally h units and vertically k units, then its vertex is
Marta_Voda [28]
The parabola defined by
y = a(x - h)² + k
has its vertex at (h,k).

After a shift by h units right, followed by a shift of k units vertically, the parabola is defined by
y = a(x - 2h)² + 2k
which has its vertex at (2h, 2k).

Answer: The vertex gets shifted by h units horizontally and k units vertically.

PLEASE HELP!! laboratory tests show that the lives of light bulbs are normally distributed with a mean of 750 hours and a standa
Lunna [17]

Answer:

P = 0.0215 = 2.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to convert the values of 900 and 975 to standard scores using the equation:

z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

Where z is the standard value, x is the original value, \mu is the mean and \sigma is the standard deviation. So we have that:

standard value of 900: z = \frac{900 - 750}{75} = 2

standard value of 975: z = \frac{975 - 750}{75} = 3

Now, we just need to look at the standard distribution table (z-table) for the values of z = 2 and z = 3:

z = 2 -> p_2 = 0.9772

z = 3 -> p_3 = 0.9987

We want the interval between 900 and 975 hours, so we need the interval between z = 2 and z = 3, so we just need to subtract their p-values:

P = p_3 - p_2 = 0.9987 - 0.9772 = 0.0215

So the probability is 0.0215 = 2.15%

How do you write 4540 million in standard form?
vovangra [49]
For this case what we should do is take into account the following conversion:
 million = 10 ^ 6

 We then have the following number:
 4540 million

 Applying the given conversion we have:
 4540 * 10 ^ 6

 By doing the corresponding calculation we have that the standard form is given by:
 4540 * 10 ^ 6 = 4,540,000,000

 Answer:
 
4540 million in standard form is:
 
4,540,000,000
