Answer:

80+(15x)

Step-by-step explanation:

10 times 8=80

1.5 times 10=15

so she gets 80 dollars for the first 8 hours then for every extra hour she gets 15 dollars

What is the cricket’s hang time (amount of time the cricket is airborne)? Round to the nearest thousandth h(t) = –16t2 + 14t

Stels [109]

We have that
h(t) = –16t²<span> + 14t
using a graph tool
see the attached figure

</span><span>the cricket’s hang time is the difference between point (0,0) and (0.875,0)
</span>(0.875-0)=0.875 sec

the answer is 0.875 sec

An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed, with mean equ

kompoz [17]

Answer:

0.62% probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Normal probability distribution.

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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 problem, we have that:

$\mu = 800, \sigma = 40, n = 16, s = \frac{40}{\sqrt{16}} = 10$

Find the probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.

This probability is the pvalue of Z when $X = 775$ . So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{775 - 800}{10}$

$Z = -2.5$

$Z = -2.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0062. So there is a 0.62% probability that a random sample of 16 bulbs will have an average life of less than 775 hours.

kap26 [50]

Answer:

The <em>z</em>-score for the group "25 to 34" is 0.37 and the <em>z</em>-score for the group "45 to 54" is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data provided is as follows:

25 to 34 45 to 54

1329 2268

1906 1965

2426 1149

1826 1591

1239 1682

1514 1851

1937 1367

1454 2158

Compute the mean and standard deviation for the group "25 to 34" as follows:

$\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{8}\times [1329+1906+...+1454]=\frac{13631}{8}=1703.875\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8-1}\times 1086710.875}=394.01$

Compute the <em>z</em>-score for the group "25 to 34" as follows:

$z=\frac{x-\bar x}{s}=\frac{1851-1703.875}{394.01}=0.3734\approx 0.37$

Compute the mean and standard deviation for the group "45 to 54" as follows:

$\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{8}\times [2268+1965+...+2158]=\frac{14031}{8}=1753.875\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8-1}\times 1028888.875}=383.39$

Compute the <em>z</em>-score for the group "45 to 54" as follows:

$z=\frac{x-\bar x}{s}=\frac{1851-1753.875}{383.39}=0.25333\approx 0.25$

Thus, the <em>z</em>-score for the group "25 to 34" is 0.37 and the <em>z</em>-score for the group "45 to 54" is 0.25.
