Thickness measurements of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village are approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 4.8 millimeters (mm) and a standard deviation of 0.7 mm. For a randomly found shard, find the following probabilities. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0051 = 0.51% probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 4.8 millimeters (mm) and a standard deviation of 0.7 mm.

This means that [tex]\mu = 4.8, \sigma = 0.7[/tex]

(a) Probability that the the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

pvalue of Z when X = 3. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{3 - 4.8}{0.7}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.57[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.57[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0051

0.0051 = 0.51% probability that the thickness is less than 3.0 mm

The average temperature for four days was 22°. What must the temperature be on the fifth day in order to make 23° the temperature for the five days?​

Answers

Answer:

27°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Average temperature on 4 days

[tex] = \frac{total \: temperatures \: for \: 4 \: days}{4} [/tex]

Total temperatures for 4 days

= 4(22)

= 88

If the average temperature throughout 5 days is 23°,

total temperature for 5 days

= 5(23)

= 115

Temperature on the 5th day

= total temperatures for 5 days -total temperature for 4 days

= 115 -88

= 27°C

given the circumference of circle b is 85 ft . what is the arc lenght of arc ADC?and the lenght of arc Ac​

Answers

Answer:

Length of arc AC = 10.6 ft

Length of arc ADC = 73.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

θ = 45°

Circumference = 85 ft

✔️First, find the radius:

Circumference of a circle = 2πr

Thus:

85 = 2πr

Solve for r

Use 3.14 as π

Divide both sides by 2π

85/2π = r

85/2*3.14 = r

85/6.28 = r

r = 13.5350318 ≈ 13.5 ft (nearest tenth)

✔️Find length of arc ADC:

Length of arc = θ/360 × Circumference of the circle

θ = 360 - 45° = 315°

Circumference = 85 ft

Plug in the values

Length of arc ADC = 315/360 × 85

= 74.375 ≈ 73.4 ft (nearest tenth)

✔️Find length of arc AD:

Length of arc = θ/360 × Circumference of the circle

θ = 45°

Circumference = 85 ft

Plug in the values

Length of arc AC = 45/360 × 85

= 10.625 ≈ 10.6 ft (nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

A: x=16

B: ∠A=22

Step-by-step explanation:

A

The angles in a triangle always add up to 180. Therefore:

∠A+∠B+∠C=180

(2x-10)+(3x)+(4x+46)=180

2x+3x+4x+46-10=180

9x=180-36

x=144/9

x=16

B

∠A=2x-10

∠A=2(16)-10

∠A=32-10

∠A=22

The logging company would like to use its sample to provide convincing statistical evidence that over 50 percent of the trees in the forest are spruce trees. The logging company has decided to use a chi-square goodness-of-fit test to justify its claim. Why is the chi-square goodness-of-fit test not an appropriate procedure for the logging company to use

Answers

Answer:

The chi-square goodness-of-fit test is best used with categorical variables.  The trees in the forest are not categorical variables but numerical.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chi-square goodness-of-fit test determines whether the distribution of cases in a single categorical variable follows a known distribution.  The chi-square goodness-of-fit test data deal with data frequencies, levels, or counts of cases rather than percentages or other data transformations. Lastly, the categories of the variables are mutually exclusive because they assume the form of either or.

Answer:

A chi-square goodness-of-fit test would be used to show that the entire distribution of trees in the forest is different than what the forester reported, not necessarily the individual proportion representing the spruce trees.

The skating rink charges $0.75 to rent skates and $1.25 per hour to skate. Which equation
can be used to find the number of hours (h) someone skated if he or she was charged
$4.50?

a) 0.75 + 1.25 = 4.50
b) h(0.75 + 1.25) = 4.50
c) 0.75 + 1.25h = 4.50
d) 0.75h + 1.25 = 4.50

Answers

Answer:

C.

It can be read as...

".75 was charged for skates, and 1.25 was charged per hour for a total of 4.50."

No other answer choice has this. A does not have the variable h, B includes .75 which is NOT charged per hour, as well as D.

A glass prism on a chandelier is 80 millimeters long. A base of the prism is an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 9 millimeters and a height of about 5.8 millimeters. What is the approximate surface area of the prism?

Answers

Let's find the area of the equilateral triangle first:

There are two triangles - one on each end. So we multiply our previous expression by 2.

Each rectangle is 75 millimeters long and 9 millimeters wide: 75*9 mm^2.

We have 3 rectangles each the same size so we multiply 75*9 by 3.

75*9*3 = 2025

2025 + 70.2 = 2095.2
