In a large​ city, 6060​% of people pass the​ drivers' road test. suppose that every​ day, 300300 people independently take the t

est. complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) below.
a. what is the number of people who are expected to​ pass? the expected number is 180180. ​(round to the nearest whole number as​ needed.)
b. what is the standard deviation for the number expected to​ pass? the standard deviation is nothing. ​(round to the nearest whole number as​ needed.)
c. after a great many​ days, according to the empirical​ rule, on about​ 95% of these​ days, the number of people passing will be as low as​ _____ and as high as​ _____. (hint: find two standard deviations below and two standard deviations above the​ mean.) after a great many​ days, according to the empirical​ rule, on about​ 95% of these​ days, the number of people passing will be as low as nothing and as high as nothing. ​(round to the nearest whole number as​ needed.)
d. if you found that one​ day, 134134 out of 300300 passed the​ test, would you consider this to be a very lowlow ​number? ▼ yes, no, because 134134 is ▼ less than 1 standard deviation between 1 and 2 standard deviations between 2 and 3 standard deviations more than 3 standard deviations belowbelow the mean.

A) 180 would be expected to pass.
B) The standard deviation is 4.
C) 95% of people would fall between 172 and 188.
D) Yes, this is more than 3 standard deviations below the mean.

Explanation
A) Multiply the probability by the sample size:
0.6(300) = 180

B) Standard deviation is found by:
√n(p)(1-p)
For our data, we have:
√300(0.6)(0.4) = 4

C) Two standard deviations below the mean is 180-2(4) = 172; two standard deviations above the mean is 180+2(4)= 188.

D) Three standard deviations below the mean is 180-3(4) = 168; 134 is more than this below the mean.  99.7% of data fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean; 0.15% fall below this point, so yes, this is unusually low.

Miriam reduced a square photo by cutting 3 inches away from the length and the width so it will fit in her photo album. The area
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

11 inches by 11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the original photo were 11 inches by 11 inches.

We are informed that the area of the reduced photo is 64 square inches and that In the equation (x – 3)^2 = 64, x represents the side measure of the original photo.

In order to solve for x, we shall first take square roots on both sides of the equation;

The square root of (x – 3)^2 is simply (x - 3).

The square root of 64 is ±8 but we ignore -8 since the dimensions of any figure must be positive.

Therefore, we have the following equation;

x - 3 = 8

x = 8 + 3

x = 11

David proved the Law of Cosines with reference to ∆ABC using a different method. Arrange the steps of his proof in the correct s
AURORKA [14]

Answer: We can arrange the steps with help of below explanation.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here ABC is a triangle,

Draw a perpendicular from BD to side AC ( construction)

where D\in AC

In the right triangle BCD, from the definition of cosine:

cos C =CD/ BC

CD= a cos C

Subtracting this from the side b, we see that

DA= b-acos C  

In the triangle BCD, from the definition of sine:

sin C =BD  / a

BD = a sin C  

In the triangle ADB, applying the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2  =BD^2 +DA^2  

Substituting for BD and DA from (2) and (3)

c^2 =(asinC)^2 +(b-acosC)^2  

⇒c^2 =a^2sin ^2C+b^2-2ab cosC+a^2 cos ^2C   ( On simplification)

⇒c^2 =a^2sin ^2C+a^2 cos ^2C+b^2-2abcos C

⇒c^2=a^2(sin^2C+cos^2C) +b^2-2abcosC

⇒c^2 = a^2+b^2-2abcosC (because,sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta =1 )
