Answer:
8% or 0.08
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of missing the first pass = 40% = 0.40
Probability of missing the second pass = 20% = 0.20
We have to find the probability that he misses both the passes. Since the two passes are independent of each other, the probability that he misses two passes will be:
Probability of missing 1st pass x Probability of missing 2nd pass
i.e.
Probability of missing two passes in a row = 0.40 x 0.20 = 0.08 = 8%
Thus, there is 8% probability that he misses two passes in a row.
Answer:
Quite simple. There are 52 weeks in a year. She gets paid 26 times, every other week.
38,350 / 26 = her salary from last year per check.
46,462 / 26 = her new salary per check
(46,462 - 38,350) / 26 = the difference per week
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 175cm
Standard deviation = 6 cm
Percentage of students below 163 cm
163 = 175 - 2*6
So 163 is two standard deviations below the mean.
By the Empirical rule, 95% of the heights are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 100-95 = 5% are more than 2 standard deviations of the mean. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 2.5% of them are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(so below 163cm) and 2.5% are more than two standard deviations above the mean.
2.5% of the students have heights less than 163cm.
Out of 1000
0.025*1000 = 25
25 is the answer
