Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

0.9256

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a convenience store owner claims that 55% of the people buying from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

Let X be the number of customers who buy from her store, on a certain day of the week, buy coffee during their visit

X is Binomial (35, 0.55)

since each customer is independent of the other and there are two outcomes.

By approximation to normal we find that both np and nq are >5.

So X can be approximated to normal with mean = np = 19.25

and std dev = $\sqrt{npq} \\=2.943$

Required probability = prob that fewer than 24 customers in the sample buy coffee during their visit on that certain day of the week

= $P(X$ (after effecting continuity correction)

= 0.9256

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a) 0.0392

b) 0.4688

c) At least $39,070 to be among the 5% most expensive.

Step-by-step explanation:

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:

$\mu = 29858, \sigma = 5600$

a. What is the probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000 (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 20000. So

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

$Z = \frac{20000 - 29858}{5600}$

$Z = -1.76$

$Z = -1.76$ has a pvalue of 0.0392.

So this probability is 0.0392.

b. What is the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000 (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 30000 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20000.

X = 30000

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

$Z = \frac{30000 - 29858}{5600}$

$Z = 0.02$

$Z = 0.02$ has a pvalue of 0.5080.

X = 20000

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

$Z = \frac{20000 - 29858}{5600}$

$Z = -1.76$

$Z = -1.76$ has a pvalue of 0.0392.

So this probability is 0.5080 - 0.0392 = 0.4688

c. For a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive, how much would it have to cost (to the nearest whole number)?

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.95. So this is X when Z = 1.645.

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

$1.645 = \frac{X - 29858}{5600}$

$X - 29858 = 5600*1.645$

$X = 39070$

The wedding would have to cost at least $39,070 to be among the 5% most expensive.

Minato drove 390 miles. Part of the drive was along local roads, where his average speed was 20 mph, and the rest was along a hi

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

45 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the:

Total distance covered = 390 miles

Total time = 8 hours

Let the distance covered along the local way = L

And the distance covered along the highway = H

Along with local way,

Speed = distance/ time

20 = L / T

T = L /20 .... (1)

Along the highway,

Distance covered H = 390 - L

Let the time = t

Speed = distance/time

60 = (390 - L)/t

t = ( 390 - L)/60

But total time = T + t

That is

8 = L/20 + (390 - L)/60

The LCM at right hand side will be 60

8 = ( 3L + 390 - L )/60

Cross multiply

480 = 2L + 390

Collect the like terms

2L = 480 - 390

2L = 90

L = 90/2

L = 45 miles.

Therefore, the distance Minato drive along local roads is 45 miles
