r that also pays tips. You will earn an average of $4.20/hr in tips. If you work the same 12 hours at the new job, there will how much more in your total gross income including tips compared to your old job?

Answer: $ 10.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the old rate = $ 9.25 per hour,

⇒ The total earning in 12 hours with this rate ( Gross income ) = 12 × 9.25 = $ 111

Also, New rate = ( $ 5.90 + $ 4.20 ) per hour = $ 10.1 per hour,

⇒ The total earning with this rate ( gross income ) = 12 × 10.1 = $ 121.2

Thus, the total difference between the new income and old income = 121.12 - 111 = $ 10.2

⇒ New gross income is $ 10.2 dollars greater than the old gross income.

a) 0.6628 = 66.28% probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

b) 0.5141 = 51.41% probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

c) 0.5596 = 55.96% probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance.

d) 0.9978 = 99.78% probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

$n = 175$

(a) What is the probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?

46.7% of visitors to Rocky Mountain National Park in 2018 entered through the Beaver Meadows. This means that $p = 0.467$ . So

$\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.467 = 81.725$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.467*0.533} = 6.6$

This probability, using continuity correction, is $P(X \geq 85 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 84.5)$ , which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 84.5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{84.5 - 81.725}{6.6}$

$Z = 0.42$

$Z = 0.42$ has a pvalue of 0.6628.

66.28% probability that at least 85 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance.

(b) What is the probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance?

Using continuity correction, this is $P(80 - 0.5 \leq X < 90 - 0.5) = P(79.5 \leq X \leq 89.5)$ , which is the pvalue of Z when X = 89.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 79.5. So

X = 89.5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{89.5 - 81.725}{6.6}$

$Z = 1.18$

$Z = 1.18$ has a pvalue of 0.8810.

X = 79.5

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{79.5 - 81.725}{6.6}$

$Z = -0.34$

$Z = -0.34$ has a pvalue of 0.3669.

0.8810 - 0.3669 = 0.5141

51.41% probability that at least 80 but less than 90 visitors had a recorded entry through the Beaver Meadows park entrance

(c) What is the probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance?

6.3% of visitors entered through the Grand Lake park entrance, which means that $p = 0.063$

$\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.063 = 11.025$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.063*0.937} = 3.2141$

This probability, using continuity correction, is $P(X < 12 - 0.5) = P(X < 11.5)$ , which is the pvalue of Z when X = 11.5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{11.5 - 11.025}{3.2141}$

$Z = 0.15$

$Z = 0.15$ has a pvalue of 0.5596.

55.96% probability that fewer than 12 visitors had a recorded entry through the Grand Lake park entrance.

(d) What is the probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry?

22.7% of visitors had no recorded point of entry to the park. This means that $p = 0.227$

$\mu = E(X) = np = 175*0.227 = 39.725$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{175*0.227*0.773} = 5.54$

Using continuity correction, this probability is $P(X \leq 55 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 55.5)$ , which is the pvalue of Z when X = 55.5. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{55.5 - 39.725}{5.54}$

$Z = 2.85$

$Z = 2.85$ has a pvalue of 0.9978

0.9978 = 99.78% probability that more than 55 visitors have no recorded point of entry

If r=[x,y,z] and r0=[x0,y0,z0], describe the set of all points (x,y,z) such that Ir-r0I =1.

sdas [7]

Answer:

The points (x,y,z) that respond to Ir-r0I =1, are all that describes the form $(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2+(z-z_0)^2=1$ with:

-1+x₀<x<1+x₀

-1+y₀<y<1+y₀

-1+z₀<z<1+z₀

Step-by-step explanation:

All points required in this problem came from applying the definition of modulus of a vector:

Ir-r0I =1.

$|(x,y,z)-(x_{0},y_{0},z_{0})|=|(x-x_{0},y-y_{0},z-z_{0})|=\sqrt{(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2}=1\\(x-x_{0})^2+(y-y_{0})^2+(z-z_{0})^2=1^2=1$

a ball is thrown straight up from the top of a tower that is 280 ft high with an initial velocity of 48 ft/s . the height of the

poizon [28]

First find the time that the ball is level with the top of the building on its descent. You can do this by solving 280 = -16^2 + 48t + 280 for t. This gives t = 3 seconds .
Then when the ball reaches the ground the time t is obtained by solving 0 = -16t^2 + 48t + 280 This gives t = 5.94 seconds.
Answer in interval notation is (3, 5.94].

What do the symbols of mirrors and glass represent in this

luda_lava [24]

Question:

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 1, scene 2.

CASSIUS: ‘Tis just; And it is very much lamented, Brutus, That you have no such mirrors as will turn Your hidden worthiness into your eye, That you might see your shadow. I have heard 5 Where many of the best respect in Rome– Except immortal Caesar‐speaking of Brutus, And groaning underneath this age’s yoke, Have wished that noble Brutus had his eyes.

BRUTUS: Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, 10 That you would have me seek into myself For that which is not in me?

CASSIUS: Therefore, good Brutus, be prepared to hear. And since you know you cannot see yourself So well as by reflection, I, your glass, 15 Will modestly discover to yourself That of yourself which you yet know not of.

Answer:

The correct choice is D)

Explanation:

Cassius speaks of Brutus as one who is unable to see or know his own value and presumes to help him therewith. He does this by pointing out that many of the well respected people in Rome wish that he were in Caesars shoes as King.

Cheers!
