In a forest, 20% of mushrooms are red, 50% brown, and 30% white. A red mushroom is poisonous with a probability of 20%. A mushro

kirill115 [55]

Draw a simple branch diagram to work the probabilities out. You find that the chance of a poisonous mushroom is 0.08 and the chance of a red poisonous is 0.04. So the probability that a poisonous mushroom is red is 1/2 or 0.5.

The population of lengths of aluminum-coated steel sheets is normally distributed with a mean of 30.05 inches and a standard dev

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Probability that the average length of a sheet is between 30.25 and 30.35 inches long is 0.0214 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of lengths of aluminum-coated steel sheets is normally distributed with a mean of 30.05 inches and a standard deviation of 0.2 inches.

Also, a sample of four metal sheets is randomly selected from a batch.

Let X bar = Average length of a sheet

The z score probability distribution for average length is given by;

Z = $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean = 30.05 inches

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 0.2 inches

n = sample of sheets = 4

So, Probability that average length of a sheet is between 30.25 and 30.35 inches long is given by = P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches)

P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches) = P(X bar < 30.35) - P(X bar <= 30.25)

P(X bar < 30.35) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\frac{30.35-30.05}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{4} } }$ ) = P(Z < 3) = 0.99865

P(X bar <= 30.25) = P( $\frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ <= $\frac{30.25-30.05}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{4} } }$ ) = P(Z <= 2) = 0.97725

Therefore, P(30.25 inches < X bar < 30.35 inches) = 0.99865 - 0.97725

= 0.0214

In a relay race, each runner completes the circuit 9 seconds faster than the previous one. If the first athlete runs his lap in

Alona [7]

Answer:

31 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have 8 competitors with the previous runner outrunning the present by 9 seconds

1st runner time = 4 minutes 37 seconds

2nd runner time = 4 minutes 37 seconds - 9 seconds = 4 minutes 28 seconds

3rd runner time = 4 minutes 28 seconds - 9 seconds = 4 minutes 19 seconds

4th runner time = 4 minutes 19 seconds - 9 seconds = 4 minutes 10 seconds

5th runner time = 4 minutes 10 seconds - 9 seconds = 4 minutes 1 second

6th runner time s= 4 minutes 1 second - 9 seconds = 3 minutes 52 seconds

7th runner time = 3 minutes 52 seconds - 9 seconds = 3 minutes 43 seconds

8th runner time = 3 minutes 43 seconds - 9 seconds = 3 minutes 34 seconds

The total time is the addition of all the times

For clarity sake, we shall be adding all the minutes together and all the seconds together;

That will be ;

(4 * 6) + 3 minutes + ( 34 + 43 + 52 + 1 + 10 + 19 + 28 + 37)

= 27 minutes + 224 seconds

We need to convert 224 seconds to minutes

Since 60 seconds make one minute; we have

224 - 60(3) = 3 minutes and 44 seconds

Let’s add this to the minutes we had before

That would be;

27 minutes + 3 minutes + 44 seconds

= 30 minutes 44 seconds

since 44 seconds is greater than 1/2 minute (30 seconds), we can approximate it to 1 minute

So the total time is 30 minutes + 1 minute = 31 minutes

Answer:551.25

Step-by-step explanation:

500 x .05 =25+500= 525 which is the second concert. Multiply that by .05 which is 26.25, add that to 525 to get 551.25 which is not 650.
