Many urban zoos are looking at ways to effectively handle animal waste. One zoo has installed a facility that will transform ani

mal waste into electricity. To estimate how many pounds of waste they may have to fuel the new facility they began keeping meticulous records. They discovered that the amount of animal waste they were disposing of daily is approximately Normal with a mean of 348.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 38.2 pounds. Amounts over 350 pounds would generate enough electricity to cover what is needed to for the entire aquarium that day. Approximately what proportion of the days can the zoo expect to obtain enough waste to cover what is needed to run the entire aquarium for the day?
(A) 0.484
(B) 0.499
(C) 0.516
(D) 0.680
(E) 0.950

Answer: The correct answer is (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = the amount of waste produced in a given day. X follows a distribution that is approximately Normal with a mean of 348.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 38.2 pounds.

P(X > 350) = Normalcdf(lower: 350, upper: 1000, mean: 348.5, SD: 38.2) = 0.484.

yan [13]
Let unknown number be x.

Given,

4x - 8 < 56

4x < 64

x < 16

Hence, x is any value less than 16.

Three highways connect city A with city B. Two highways connect city B with city C.
QveST [7]
(a) The probability that there is no open route from A to B is (0.2)^3 = 0.008.
Therefore the probability that at least one route is open from A to B is given by: 1 - 0.008 = 0.992.
The probability that there is no open route from B to C is (0.2)^2 = 0.04.
Therefore the probability that at least one route is open from B to C is given by:
1 - 0.04 = 0.96.
The probability that at least one route is open from A to C is:
0.992\times0.96=0.9523

(b)
α The probability that at least one route is open from A to B would become 0.9984. The probability in (a) will become:0.9984\times0.96=0.95846

β The probability that at least one route is open from B to C would become 0.992. The probability in (a) will become:
0.992\times0.992=0.9841

Gamma: The probability that a highway between A and C will not be blocked in rush hour is 0.8. We need to find the probability that there is at least one route open from A to C using either a route A to B to C, or the route A to C direct. This is found by using the formula:
P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)
0.9523+0.8-(0.9523\times0.8)=0.99
Therefore building a highway direct from A to C gives the highest probability that there is at least one route open from A to C.

This chart shows what happens when each object is placed on a balance with a 10 kg weight on the other side.
dexar [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Object 1 is the heaviest object.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first column of the table tells you ...

  Object 1 is heavier than the 10 kg weight

The second column of the table tells you ...

  Object 2 weighs 10 kg

The third column of the table tells you ...

  Object 3 is lighter than the 10 kg weight

Then the relative weights are ...

  Object 1 > Object 2 > Object 3

That is, Object 1 is the heaviest object.
