Answer: The value of x is 20° and the measurement of angle B is 150°.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the angle measurements in the figure are represented by the following expressions :

$m\angle A=8x-10^\circ,~~~m\angle B=3x+90^\circ.$

We are to solve for the value of x and then for the measurement of angle B.

We can see in the figure that

the two lines are parallel and they cut by a transversal.

Therefore,

$m\angle A=m\angle B~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\textup{[alternate interior angles]}\\\\\Rightarrow 8x-10^\circ=3x+90^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow 8x-3x=90^\circ+10^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=100^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{100^\circ}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow x=20^\circ.$

And, the measurement of B will be

$m\angle B=3x+90^\circ=3\times 20^\circ+90^\circ=60^\circ+90^\circ=150^\circ.$

Thus, the value of x is 20° and the measurement of angle B is 150°.

The lifetime of a cheap light bulb is an exponential random variable with mean 36 hours. Suppose that 16 light bulbs are tested

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$P(T$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

The exponential distribution is "the probability distribution of the time between events in a Poisson process (a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate). It is a particular case of the gamma distribution". The probability density function is given by:

$P(X=x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}, x>0$

And 0 for other case. Let X the random variable that represent "The number of years a radio functions" and we know that the distribution is given by:

$X \sim Exp(\lambda=\frac{1}{16})$

Or equivalently:

$X \sim Exp(\mu=16)$

Solution to the problem

For this case we are interested in the total T, and we can find the mean and deviation for this like this:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}=\frac{T}{n}$

If we solve for T we got:

$T= n\bar X$

And the expected value is given by:

$E(T) = n E(\bar X)= n \mu= 16*36=576$

And we can find the variance like this:

$Var(T) = Var(n\bar X)=n^2 Var(\bar X)= n^2 *\frac{\sigma^2}{n}=n \sigma^2$

And then the deviation is given by:

$Sd(T)= \sqrt{n} \sigma=\sqrt{16} *36=144$

And the distribution for the total is:

$T\sim N(n\mu, \sqrt{n}\sigma)$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(T< 600)$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z=\frac{T- \mu_T}{\sigma_T}$

And replacing we got this:

$P(T$

Suppose there is a 20% chance of rain on Monday and a 40% chance of rain on Tuesday. Assuming the weather on successive days is

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a. 52%

b. 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represents the event of raining on Monday and B represents the event of raining in Tuesday,

Then according to the question,

P(A) = 20% = 0.2,

P(B) = 40% = 0.4,

Here, A and B are independent events,

So, P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B),

⇒ P(A∩B) = 0.2 × 0.4 = 0.08

We know that,

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

a. The probability it rains on Monday or Tuesday, P(A∪B) = 0.2 + 0.4 - 0.08

= 0.52

= 52%

b. The conditional probability it rains on Tuesday given that it rained on Monday,

$P(\frac{B}{A})=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.08}{0.2}=0.4 = 40\%$

a museum employee surveys a random sample of 350 visitors to the museum. Of those visitors, 266 stopped at the gift shop. Based

Naddika [18.5K]

1748 people are expected to stop at the gift shop out of 2300.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of random sampled people = 350

Number of people who stopped at shop = 266

Percentage = $\frac{People\ stopped}{Total\ people}*100$

Percentage = $\frac{266}{350}*100=76\%$

Therefore,

76% people would stop at the gift stop.

Number of people = 2300

Expected number = 76% of total

Expected number = $\frac{76}{100}*2300$

Expected number = 1748

1748 people are expected to stop at the gift shop out of 2300.
