Let's turn 3 hours and 3 minutes into minutes.

One hour=60×3=180+3=183

So, there's 183 minutes in 3 hours and 3 minutes. We need to divide 26.2 miles by 183.

26.2÷183≈ 0.143

So, Sally ran 0.143 miles every minute.

Answer:

0.143 miles/minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a marathon is 26.2 miles.  Sally ran a marathon in 3 hours 3 minutes.

Time Sally ran = 3 hours 3 minutes

=3(60+3 = 183 minutes

DIstance travelled = 26.2 miles

Speed per minute = distance/time taken

= \frac{26.2}{183} \\=0.143

0.143 miles/minute

"How much do students pay, on average, for textbooks during the first semester in college? From a random sample of 400 students
dezoksy [38]

Answer: The margin of error = 3.71, confidence interval = (354.04, 361.46) and it means that mean cost is lies within the confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sample size = 400

Mean = $357.75

Standard deviation = $37.89

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96

We first find the margin of error.

Margin of error is given by

z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1.96\times \dfrac{37.89}{\sqrt{400}}\\\\=3.71

95% confidence interval would be

\bar{x}\pm \text{margin of error}\\\\=357.75\pm 3.71\\\\=(357.75-3.71,357.75+3.71)\\\\=(354.04,361.46)

Hence, the margin of error = 3.71, confidence interval = (354.04, 361.46) and it means that mean cost is lies within the confidence interval.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

a) P(X>3.5)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{3.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{3.5-5}{1.2})=P(z>-1.25)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-1.25)=1-P(z

b) P(X

And we can find this probability uing the normal standard table:

P(z

c) P(3.5

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.25

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(5,1.2)  

Where \mu=5 and \sigma=1.2

We are interested on this probability

P(X>3.5)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>3.5)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{3.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{3.5-5}{1.2})=P(z>-1.25)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

P(z>-1.25)=1-P(z

Part b

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability uing the normal standard table:

P(z

Part c

P(3.5

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1.25

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

a. X is the number of DVDs a customer rents.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution states that:

0.05 = 5% probability a customer rents no DVDs

0.49 = 49% probability a customer rents 1 DVD

...

0.03 = 3% probability a customer rents 5 DVDs.

Thus, the random variable X is the number of DVDs a customer rents, and the correct answer is given by option A.
