Answer:

C. Probability is 0.90, which is inconsistent with the Empirical Rule.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that on average, the parts from a supplier have a mean of 97.5 inches and a standard deviation of 6.1 inches.

First of all, we will find z-score corresponding to 87.5 and 107.5 respectively as:

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

z=\frac{87.5-97.5}{6.1}

z=\frac{-10}{6.1}

z=-1.6393

z\approx-1.64

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

z=\frac{107.5-97.5}{6.1}

z=\frac{10}{6.1}

z=1.6393

z\approx 1.64

Now, we need to find the probability P(-1.64.

Using property P(a, we will get:

P(-1.64

From normal distribution table, we will get:

P(-1.64

P(-1.64

P(-1.64

Since the probability is 0.90, which is inconsistent with the Empirical Rule, therefore, option C is the correct choice.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

(a) = 40%

(b) = 28%

(c) Expected value = $222,500

Standard deviation = $7,216.88

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a normal distribution with a = 210,000 and b =235,000

(a) The probability that he will get at least $225,000 for the house is:

P(X\geq 225,000) =1 -\frac{225,000-a}{b-a} =1-\frac{225,000-210,000}{235,000-210,000} \\P(X\geq 225,000) =0.4= 40\%

(b)The probability he will get less than $217,000 is:

P(X\leq 217,000) =\frac{217,000-a}{b-a} =\frac{217,000-210,000}{235,000-210,000} \\P(X\leq 217,000) =0.28= 28\%

(c) The expected value (E) and the standard deviation (S) are:

E=\frac{a+b}{2}=\frac{210,000+235,000}{2}\\ E=\$222,500\\S=\frac{b-a}{\sqrt{12}}=\frac{235,000-210,000}{\sqrt{12}}\\S=\$7,216.88

Effectus [21]
Work the information to set inequalities that represent each condition or restriction.

2) Name the variables. 

c: number of color copies
b: number of black-and-white copies

3) Model each restriction:

i) <span>It takes 3 minutes to print a color copy and 1 minute to print a black-and-white copy.
</span><span>
</span><span>3c + b
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>ii) He needs to print at least 6 copies ⇒ c + b ≥ 6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>iv) And must have the copies completed in no more than 12 minutes ⇒</span>

3c + b ≤ 12
<span />

4) Additional restrictions are c ≥ 0, and b ≥ 0 (i.e. only positive values for the number of each kind of copies are acceptable)

5) This is how you graph that:

i) 3c + b ≤ 12: draw the line 3c + b = 12 and shade the region up and to the right of the line.

ii) c + b ≥ 6: draw the line c + b = 6 and shade the region down and to the left of the line.

iii) since c ≥ 0 and b ≥ 0, the region is in the first quadrant.

iv) The final region is the intersection of the above mentioned shaded regions.

v) You can see such graph in the attached figure.

If 35% of a natural area is to be developed, leaving 500 acres untouched, how many acres are to be developed?
xxTIMURxx [149]
Given that the 35% of area has been developed, the percentage of land that has not been developed is:
100-35
=65%
hence the acres of land that are to be developed will be:
35/65*500
=269.23 acres
the answer is 269.23
