<span>To pass the test, the ball must bounce between 4'1" and 4'6". To explain it you multiple 72 inches by 0.68 and by 0.75 respectively. This gives you just under 49 and 54 inches, respectively. Since the ball bounced 4'1" or 49 inches, it met the requirements.</span>

At an intersection, the red-light times are normally distributed with a mean time of 3 minutes and a standard deviation of 0.25
denpristay [2]

Percent of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes is 95.44% .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1: Sketch the curve.

The probability that 2.5<X<3.5 is equal to the blue area under the curve.

Step 2:

Since μ=3 and σ=0.25 we have:

P ( 2.5 < X < 3.5 ) =P ( 2.5−3 <  X−μ < 3.5−3 )

⇒ P ( (2.5−3)/0.25 < (X−μ)/σ < (3.5−3)/0.25)

Since, Z = (x−μ)/σ , (2.5−3)/0.25 = −2 and (3.5−3)/0.25 = 2 we have:

P ( 2.5<X<3.5 )=P ( −2<Z<2 )

Step 3: Use the standard normal table to conclude that:

P ( −2<Z<2 )=0.9544

Percent of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes is 0.9544(100) = 95.44% .

Chandresh is helping his father paint the fence in their back yard. The fence is represented by the shaded part of the diagram b
Lyrx [107]

B. The total area painted is 864; they must buy two cans of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

A rectangle's area can be calculated by multiplying its length and its width. The wall is made up of 5 different types of rectangular walls. All walls are 8 feet tall but the length varies.

Step 2:

The area of the 20 feet long wall = (length)(width)= (20)(8) =160,

The area of the 10 feet long wall = (length)(width)= (10)(8) =80,

The area of the 5 feet long wall = (length)(width)= (5)(8) =40,

The area of the 4 feet long wall = (length)(width)= (4)(8) =32,

The area of the 15 feet long wall = (length)(width)= (15)(8) =120.

The area of all the walls = 432 square feet.

Since there are two sides for every wall, total area = 432(2)=864 square feet.

Step 3:

If one paint can covers 500 square feet,

the number of cans required to paint 864 square feet = \frac{864}{500} = 1.728 cans.

so 2 paint cans are needed to paint 864 square feet which is option B.

In a particular city, 82% of the residents have a desktop computer, 47% have a desktop computer and a laptop computer, and 3% ha
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

B) 0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define:

  • A: the home has a laptop
  • B: the home has a desktop computer.

Data

  • P(B) = 0.82
  • P(A∩B) = 0.47

We want to find the probability that a home has a laptop given that it has a  desktop computer, that is, P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B) = 0.47/0.82 = 0.57

Apples: $(2x) per pound
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

Shopper spend $3 on Apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5)

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)

A shopper purchases one pound each of  apples, grapes, and oranges and spends  $10.50.

It can be written as: 2x+6x-5+x+2=10.50

We need to find how much the shopper spend on each fruit.

First we need to find value of x by solving equation

2x+6x-5+x+2=10.50

Solving:

2x+6x+x+2-5=10.50\\9x-3=10.50\\9x=10.50+3\\9x=13.5\\x=\frac{13.5}{9}\\x=1.5

The value of x is: x=1.5

Now finding cost of one pound each fruit by putting x=1.5

Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x = 2(1.5) = $3

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5) = (6(1.5)-5)= $4

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)=(1.5+2)=$3.5

So,

Cost of one pound of Apple  = $3

Cost of one pound of Grapes = $4

Cost of one pound of Oranges = $3.5

So, shopper spend $3 on apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges
