Two brothers, Michael and Alan, were in a bowling league that met once a
week. From past experiences, it is known that both brothers' scores are
approximately normally distributed where Michael has a mean score of 150
with a standard deviation of 30, and Alan has a mean score of 165 with a
standard deviation of 15. Assuming that their scores are independent, which
of the following values is closest to the probability that Michael will have a
greater core than Alan in a single game?
0.16
0.28
0.31
0.33
0.37

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mean score for Michael, [tex]\bar x _1[/tex] = 150

The standard deviation, σ₁ = 30

The mean score for Alan,  [tex]\bar x _2[/tex] = 165

The standard deviation, σ₂ = 15

Taking n₁ = n₂ = 1

[tex]z=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2})-(\mu_{1}-\mu _{2} )}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}-\dfrac{\sigma _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}[/tex]

Taking μ₁ - μ₂ = 0

[tex]z=\dfrac{(150-165)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{30^{2} }{1}-\dfrac{15^{2}}{1}}} \approx -0.577[/tex]

The p-value for a z-score of -0.577 from the z-table is 0.28434

Therefore, the probability that Michael, with mean score, [tex]\bar x _1[/tex] = 150 will have a greater score than Alan, with a mean score of [tex]\bar x _2[/tex] = 165 is 0.28434 ≈ 0.28

Therefore, the correct option is 0.28

At the beginning of the fall, the water level of a lake is 11 1/3
feet below normal level. After a drought, the lake's water
level dropped 7 2/3 feet. Where is the lake's current water
level in relation to its normal water level?

Answers

The lake's current water is dropped ( 55 / 3 ) feet below the normal water level.

A collection of ordered pairs having one item from each set makes up a relation between two sets. If the ordered pair (x,y) is present in the relation and the objects x and y come from different sets, then the objects are said to be connected. One kind of relation is a function.

Let x be the normal water level of the lake.

At the beginning of the fall, the level of water of the lake is [tex]11\frac{1}{3}[/tex] feet below the water level.

So, the change in water level [tex]-11\frac{1}{3}[/tex].

Then, the water level of the lake dropped [tex]7\frac{2}{3}[/tex] feet after the drought.

Again, the change in water level will be [tex]-7\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

Hence, the total change in water level will be:

[tex]=-11\frac{1}{3}-7\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

= ( - 33 + 1 ) / 3 - ( 21 + 2 ) / 3

= ( - 32 / 3 ) - ( 23 / 3 )

= ( - 55 / 3 )

Therefore, the lake's water level dropped ( 55 / 3 ) feet below the normal water level.

There is a translation of 3 units to the right and 4 units upwards to translate ABCD into A'B'C'D',  then the correct option is C.

"Shifted 3 units right and 4 units up"

which of the following steps were applied to ABCD to obtain A'B'C'D'?

Let's just compare one of the vertices to identify the translation applied.

We can see that the coordinates of vertice A are (2, 3).

While the coordinates of the vertice A' are (5, 7)

If we take the difference between these two coordinate pairs, we will et

A' - A = (5, 7) - (2, 3)

Remember that this difference is computed component to component, so we have:

(5, 7) - (2, 3) = (5 - 2, 7 - 3) = (3, 4)

From this we can conclude that we hade a translation of 3 units to the right and 4 units upwards to translate ABCD into A'B'C'D',  then the correct option is C.

Answers

The range of the average cost function of a cell phone that has an initial and monthly costs $400 and $50 is r:(50, 400)

Which method can be used to find the range of the average cost function?

Initial price for the cell phone = $400

Charges per month after purchase = $50

The rational function representing the average monthly cost = c(t)

Required; The range of the average monthly cost function, c(t)

Solution:

The total cost of owning the cell phone, C, is therefore;

C = 400 + 50•t

Where;

∆t = The number of months after purchase

The average monthly cost is therefore;

[tex]c(t) = \frac{C}{ \Delta t} [/tex]

At ∆t ≈ 0, we have;

C ≈ 400

The cost for the month at ∆t ≈ 0, is therefore, c(t) = $400

At ∆t ≈ ∞, we have;

[tex] \lim\limits_{∆t→∞} \frac{400}{ ∆t} = 0[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex] \lim\limits_{∆t→∞} c(t) = \frac{400+ 50× ∆t}{ ∆t} ≈ 50[/tex]

Which gives;

The range of c(t) is (50, 400)

In this case, the total length of the trip was 400 miles.

Therefore, the number of miles that they traveled when he fell asleep will be:
