The XO Group Inc. conducted a survey of 13,000 brides and grooms married in the United States and found that the average cost of

a wedding is $29,858 (XO Group website, January 5, 2015). Assume that the cost of a wedding is normally distributed with a mean of $29,858 and a standard deviation of $5600.
a. What is the probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000 (to 4 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000 (to 4 decimals)?
c. For a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive, how much would it have to cost (to the nearest whole number)?

Answer:

0.0392,0.4709, 38083

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that XO Group Inc. conducted a survey of 13,000 brides and grooms married in the United States and found that the average cost of a wedding is $29,858

X is N(29,858, 5600)

Or Z=\frac{x-29158}{5600} is N*(0,1)

We can use std normal distribution table to get the probabilities

a) The probability that a wedding costs less than $20,000 (to 4 decimals)

= P(X

=0.0392

b) the probability that a wedding costs between $20,000 and $30,000

=0.5101-0.0392\\=0.4709

c) For a wedding to be among the 5% most expensive, how much would it have to cost (to the nearest whole number)

=29858+1.645*5600\\=38083

I believe the answer would be 49.64 because if you add them together 22.65+33.31 = 55.96 x .10 = 5.60 55.96-5.60 = $49.64

For a continuous random variable x, the probability density function f(x) represents
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The graph of a continuous probability distribution is a curve. Probability is represented by area under the curve.

The curve is called the probability density function (abbreviated as pdf).

We use the symbol f(x) to represent the curve

therefore

The probability density function f(x) represents . the height of the function at  x.

Alecsey [184]
Given:
Three numbers in an AP, all positive.
Sum is 21.
Sum of squares is 155.
Common difference is positive.

We do not know what x and y stand for.  Will just solve for the three numbers in the AP.
Let m=middle number, then since sum=21, m=21/3=7
Let d=common difference.
Sum of squares
(7-d)^2+7^2+(7+d)^2=155
Expand left-hand side
3*7^2-2d^2=155
d^2=(155-147)/2=4
d=+2 or -2
=+2  (common difference is positive)

Therefore the three numbers of the AP are
{7-2,7,7+2}, or
{5,7,9}
