Answer:

The correct option is C) 0.5 and 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided number $\frac{4}{7}$

First convert the number $\frac{4}{7}$ into decimal form as shown:

$\frac{4}{7}=0.57142857$

Here the number is greater that 0.5

But the number is less than 0.6

Between 0.5 and 0.6 the number $\frac{4}{7}$ can be placed.

Thus, the correct option is C) 0.5 and 0.6

The length of time a full length movie runs from opening to credits is normally distributed with a mean of 1.9 hours and standar

Llana [10]

Answer:

a) The probability that a random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours = 0.2586.

b) The probability that a random movie is longer than 2.3 hours is 0.0918.

c) The length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies is 1.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we would solve it using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation

a) A random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours

z = (x-μ)/σ,

x1 = 1.8,

x2 = 2.0

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

z1 = (1.8 - 1.9)/0.3

z1 = -1/0.3

z1 = -0.33333

Using the z score table

P(z1 = -0.33) = 0.3707

z2 = (2.0 - 1.9)/0.3

z1 = 1/0.3

z1 = 0.33333

p(z2 = 0.33) = 0.6293

= P(- 0.33 ≤ z ≤ 0.33)

= 0.6293 - 0.3707

= 0.2586

The probability that a random movie is between 1.8 and 2.0 hours = 0.2586

b) A movie is longer than 2.3 hours

z = (x-μ)/σ,

x1 = 2.3

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

z = (2.3 - 1.9)/0.3

z = 4/0.3

z = 1.33333

P(z = 1.33) = 0.90824

P(x>2.3) = = 1 - 0.90824

= 0.091759

≈ 0.0918

The probability that a random movie is longer than 2.3 hours is 0.0918.

3) The length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies.

z = (x-μ)/σ

Probability (z ) = 94% = 0.94

Movie that is shorter than 0.94

= P(1 - 0.94) = P(0.06)

Finding the P (x< 0.06) = -1.555

≈ -1.56

μ is the population mean = 1.9

σ is the population standard deviation = 0.3

-1.56 = (x - 1.9)/ 0.3

Cross multiply

-1.56 × 0.3 = x - 1.9

- 0.468 + 1.9 = x

= 1.432 hours

≈ 1.4 hours

Therefore, the length of movie that is shorter than 94% of the movies is 1.4 hours

The first term of a finite geometric series is 6 and the last term is 4374. The sum of all the term os 6558. find the common rat

Oliga [24]

A geometric series is written as $ar^n$ , where $a$ is the first term of the series and $r$ is the common ratio.

In other words, to compute the next term in the series you have to multiply the previous one by $r$ .

Since we know that the first time is 6 (but we don't know the common ratio), the first terms are

$6, 6r, 6r^2, 6r^3, 6r^4, 6r^5, \ldots$ .

Let's use the other information, since the last term is $4374 > 6$ , we know that $r>1$ , otherwise the terms would be bigger and bigger.

The information about the sum tells us that

$\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^n 6r^i = 6\sum_{i=0}^n r^i = 6558$

We have a formula to compute the sum of the powers of a certain variable, namely

$\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^n r^i = \cfrac{r^{n+1}-1}{r-1}$

So, the equation becomes

$6\cfrac{r^{n+1}-1}{r-1} = 6558$

The only integer solution to this expression is $n=6, r=3$ .

If you want to check the result, we have

$6+6*3+6*3^2+6*3^3+6*3^4+6*3^5+6*3^6 = 6558$

and the last term is

$6*3^6 = 4374$
