Mrs. Ronilo had her students make a stem-and-leaf plot of the heights of all of the students in the class. The mean was 55. Dave

was absent the day they did this, and he is 57 inches tall. How does adding him into the data change the measures of central tendency?

Given that the mean is 55 inches  and Dave is 57 inches, he would have increased the mean of the height in the stem-and-leaf plot that the students were making. This is however is also dependent upon the central tendency that was used, in this case the central tendency is mean or average.

Past records indicate that 15 percent of the flights for a certain airline are delayed. Suppose flights are randomly selected on
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

a. 0.0783

Step-by-step explanation:

For each flight, we have these following probabilities:

A 15% probability that a flight is delayed

An 85% probability that a flight is on time.

Which of the following is closest to the probability that it will take 5 selections to find one flight that is delayed?

This is the probability that the first four flights are on time and the fifth is late. So

P = 0.85*0.85*0.85*0.85*0.15 = 0.0783

So the correct answer is

a. 0.0783

Only 35% of the drivers in a particular city wear seat belts. Suppose that 20 drivers are stopped at random what is the probabil
lesya692 [45]

Here we have a situation where the probability of a driver wearing seat belts is known and remains constant throughout the experiment of stopping 20 drivers.

The drivers stopped are assumed to be random and independent.

These conditions are suitable for modelling using he binomial distribution, where

where n=number of drivers stopped (sample size = 20)

x=number of drivers wearing seatbelts (4)

p=probability that a driver wears seatbelts (0.35), and

C(n,x)=binomial coefficient of x objects chosen from n = n!/(x!(n-x)!)

So the probability of finding 4 drivers wearing seatbelts out of a sample of 20

P(4;20;0.35)

=C(20,4)*(0.35)^4*(0.65)^16

= 4845*0.0150061*0.0010153

= 0.07382

A rectangular Corn Hole area at the recreation center has a width of 5 feet and a length of 10 feet. If a uniform amount is adde
almond37 [142]
1. The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle, is:
 
 A=LxW
 
 A is the area of the rectangle
 L is the length of the rectangle.
 W is the widht of the rectangle

2. You have that:
 
 -The<span> rectangular Corn Hole area has a width of 5 feet and a length of 10 feet, so:
 
 L1=10 feet
 W1=5 feet
 
 - When</span> a uniform amount is added to each side (x), the area is increased to 84 feet². Then, you have a different length (L2) and a different width (W2):
 
 3. The new length is:<span> 
 
 L2=L1+x+x
 L2=L1+2x
 L2=10+2x
 
 4. The new width is:
 
 W2=W1+x+x
 W2=W1+2x
 W2=5+2x
 
 5. The new area is:
 
 A2=84 feet</span>²<span>
 
 6. Then, you have:
 
 A=LxW
 84</span>=(10+2x)(<span>5+2x)
 
 7. When you apply the distributive property, you obtain a quadratic equation:
 
 4x</span>²+30x-34=0
<span> 
 8. You can solve with by applyin the quadratic formula: 
 
 x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
 
 a=4
 b=30
 c=-34
 
 9. Then, the answer is:
 
 x=1 feet
