The length of time a full length movie runs from opening to credits is normally distributed with a mean of 1.9 hours and standar
Llana [10]

Answer:

a) The probability that a random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours = 0.2586.

b) The probability that a random movie is longer than 2.3 hours is 0.0918.

c) The length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies is 1.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we would solve it using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation

a) A random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours

z = (x-μ)/σ,

x1 = 1.8,

x2 = 2.0

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

z1 = (1.8 - 1.9)/0.3

z1 = -1/0.3

z1 = -0.33333

Using the z score table

P(z1 = -0.33) = 0.3707

z2 = (2.0 - 1.9)/0.3

z1 = 1/0.3

z1 = 0.33333

p(z2 = 0.33) = 0.6293

= P(- 0.33 ≤ z ≤ 0.33)

= 0.6293 - 0.3707

= 0.2586

The probability that a random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours = 0.2586

b) A movie is longer than 2.3 hours

z = (x-μ)/σ,

x1 = 2.3

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

z = (2.3 - 1.9)/0.3

z = 4/0.3

z = 1.33333

P(z = 1.33) = 0.90824

P(x>2.3) = = 1 - 0.90824

= 0.091759

≈ 0.0918

The probability that a random movie is longer than 2.3 hours is 0.0918.

3) The length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies.

z = (x-μ)/σ

Probability (z ) = 94% = 0.94

Movie that is shorter than 0.94

= P(1 - 0.94) = P(0.06)

Finding the P (x< 0.06) = -1.555

≈ -1.56

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

-1.56 = (x - 1.9)/ 0.3

Cross multiply

-1.56 × 0.3 = x - 1.9

- 0.468 + 1.9 = x

= 1.432 hours

≈ 1.4 hours

Therefore, the length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies is 1.4 hours

Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory. He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is :

Jerry makes $40,000 a year working at a nearby factory.

He gets two weeks paid vacation per year, plus five other paid holidays.

So total paid holidays become = 14+5=19 days

Subtracting 19 from 365 days and assuming that Jerry works for 365 days a year.

We get = 365-19=346 days

So, his per day salary will be = \frac{40000}{346}= 115.60

Vacation pays are not included in salaries. Therefore, Jerry's calculation is wrong.

Aluminium coated dewars are cylindrical flasks used to safely store and transport liquid nitrogen, dry ice etc. A company manufa
Nitella [24]

This question is Incomplete because it lacks the diagram showing the containers as well as the required options. Find attached to this answer the appropriate diagram.

Complete Question

Aluminium coated dewars are cylindrical flasks used to safely store and transport liquid nitrogen, dry ice etc. A company manufactures such dewars of different sizes. Shown here are two dewars, both of the same height but of different diameters. How much aluminium will be required to cover Dewar A compared to that required for Dewar B? (Note: The base and the lid are NOT made up of aluminium.)

A) 1/3 times

B) 3 times

C) 9 times

D) The same amount of aluminum will be required.

Answer:

B) 3 times

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that we are to find the amount of aluminum to cover Dewar A and B , we are also told that the base and the lid are not covered with aluminum.

From this information, we can determine that we are to find the curved or Lateral surface area of the cylinder because the base and lid are not included

The curved surface area of a cylinder is calculated as 2πrh

We told that both cylinders have the same height. Hence,

For Dewar A

We have Diameter of 30 cm, radius = Diameter ÷ 2 = 30cm ÷ 2 = 15cm.

Height = h

The curved surface area = 2πrh

= 2 × π × 15 ×h

= 30πhcm²

For Dewar B

We have Diameter of 10 cm, radius = Diameter ÷ 2 = 10cm ÷ 2 = 5cm.

Height = h

The curved surface area = 2πrh

= 2 × π × 5 ×h

= 10πhcm²

When we compare the curved surface Dewar A to the curved surface area of Dewar B

Dewar A : Dewar B

30πhcm² : 10πhcm²

3(10πhcm²) : 10πhcm²

From the above comparison, we can see that 3 times more aluminum is required to cover Dewar A compared to Dewar B.

A local museum charges $25 per adult and $12 per child for admission fees. At the end of a day, the museum made $9,014 in total
Natali [406]

Answer:

There were 172 guests that were children and 278 guests that were adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: State what is known

It is $25 per adult

It is $12 per child

The made $9014 dollars

There were 450 guests

Step 2: Define equations

25y + 12x = 9014 -----1

x + y = 450 ------------2

Step 3: Rearrange equation 2 for x

x + y = 450

x = 450 - y --------------3

Step 4: Substitute 3 into 1 for y and solve for y

25y + 12(450 - y) = 9014

25y + 5400 - 12y = 9014

13y = 3614

y = 3614/13

y = 278

Step 5: Substitute y = 278 into 3 to solve for x

x = 450 - (278)

x = 172

Therefore 172 children and 278 adults visited the museum
