When Ryan runs the 400 meter dash, his finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 75 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.5 seconds. Using the empirical rule, determine the interval of times that represents the middle 68% of his finishing times in the 400 meter race.

Answers

Answer 1

The interval of times which represents the middle 68% of Ryan's finishing times in the 400 meter race, using the empirical rule, is 74.5 seconds to 75.5 seconds.

What is empirical rule?

According to the empirical rule, also known as 68-95-99.7 rule, the percentage of values that lie within an interval with 68%, 95% and 99.7% of the values lies within one, two or three standard deviations of the mean of the distribution.

[tex]P(\mu - \sigma < X < \mu + \sigma) = 68\%\\P(\mu - 2\sigma < X < \mu + 2\sigma) = 95\%\\P(\mu - 3\sigma < X < \mu + 3\sigma) = 99.7\%[/tex]

Here we had  where mean of distribution of X is [tex]\mu[/tex]  and standard deviation from mean of distribution of X is [tex]\sigma[/tex].

When Ryan runs the 400 meter dash, his finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 75 seconds and a standard deviation of 0.5 seconds.

The interval of times that represents the middle 68% of his finishing times in the 400 meter race is,

[tex]P(75 - 0.5 < X < 75 + 0.5) = 68\%\\P(74.5 < X < 75.5) = 68\%[/tex]

Thus. the interval of times which represents the middle 68% of Ryan's finishing times in the 400 meter race, using the empirical rule, is 74.5 seconds to 75.5 seconds.

Triangle A B C is shown. Side A C has a length of 27. Side C B has a length of 54.
Based on the diagram, which expresses all possible lengths of segment AB?

AB = 25
27 < AB < 81
AB = 85
AB< 27 or AB > 81

Answers

Answer:

27<AB<81

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two sides of a triangle have to be than the length of the third side. 27+54 is 81, so the AB has to be less than 81. Now, to find the minimum, I can say 27+x has to be greater than 54, so x has to be greater than 27. Therefore, the answer has to be between 27 and 81, so the 2nd one is correct.

If 12(x -7) = -11 then x =?

Answers

Answer:

x = 73/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12(x-7)=-11}[/tex]

Distribute 12 in x-7:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12x-84=-11}[/tex]

Add both sides by 84:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{12x-84+84=-11+84}\\\displaystyle \large{12x=73}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{\dfrac{12x}{12}=\dfrac{73}{12}}\\\displaystyle \large{x=\dfrac{73}{12}}[/tex]

Therefore, the solution is x = 73/12

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\bf\:x = \frac{73}{12} = 6\frac{1}{12} \approx 6.083}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]12(x - 7) = -11[/tex]

Multiply 12 by x & 7 (distributive property) in the left hand side of the equation .

[tex]12(x-7)=-11\\(12*x)-(12*7)=-11\\12x - 84 =-11[/tex]

Bring -84 to the right hand side of the equation. Then,

[tex]12x = -11 + 84\\12x = 73\\x=\frac{73}{12} \\\\\boxed{\bf\:x = \frac{73}{12} = 6\frac{1}{12} \approx 6.083}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = 35° , y = 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

145° is an exterior angle of the triangle , then

y + 55° = 145° ( subtract 55° from both sides )

y = 90°

the sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , then

x + y + 55° = 180°

x + 90° + 55° = 180°

x + 145° = 180° ( subtract 145° from both sides )

x = 35°

The sales of new products over time are found to follow a quadratic model before dropping off to zero at the end of the product’s lifetime. A new product is released with sales modeled by the equation
S

)

+
81
, where S represents the sales in millions of dollars and t represents the number of years the product will be sold. According to the equation, what will be the lifetime of this product?

Answers

The sales equation of the product is an illustration of a quadratic function, and the lifeline of the product is 12 years

How to determine the lifeline of the product?

The sales equation is given as:

S(t) = -(t - 3)² + 81

The lifeline of the product is when the sales hits 0.

This means that S(t) = 0

So, we have:

-(t - 3)² + 81 = 0

Subtract 81 from both sides

-(t - 3)² = -81

Divide both sides by -1

(t - 3)² = 81

Take the square root of both sides

t - 3 = 9

Add 3 to both sides

t = 12

Hence, the lifeline of the product is 12 years

Andy is building a model train. A train in real life has a wheel diameter of 33 inches, a length of 20 feet, a width of 10 feet, and a height of 12 feet. If his model has a width of 8 inches, what does the height need to be?

Answers

By finding and using the scale factor for the model, we conclude that the height of the model is 9.6 inches.

How to apply a scale factor?

The ratio between the model's width and the real width is the scale factor, and all the dimensions change following that scale factor.

We have:

8 in = 10ft

1 ft = (8/10) in

This means that each feet in the real life, will be represented with (8/10) inches in the model.

Now we know that the real height is 12ft, then the model's height will be:

12* (8/10) in = 9.6 in

So the correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

m=change in y/change in x

m=6-0/1-0   Plug in (0,0)(1,6)

m=6/1    simplify

m=6  

The slope is 6

2. Find the y-intercept. Since the line crosses the y-axis at 0, the y-intercept is 0.

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2610 kilometers in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 8750 kilometers in 7 hours. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

200 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Va = the velocity of the airplane

Let Vw = the velocity of the wind

When flying with the wind:

(Va+Vw)*(4 hours) = 4000

4Va + 4Vw = 4000

4Vw = 4000 - 4Va

Vw = 1000 - Va

When flying against the wind:

(Va-Vw)*(7 hours) = 4200 km

7Va - 7Vw = 4200

Substitute 1000-Va for Vw and solve for Va:

7Va - 7(1000-Va) = 4200          

7Va -7000 + 7Va = 4200

14Va = 11200

Va = 800 km/hr

Rate of wind:

Vw = 1000 - Va = 1000 - 800 = 200 km/hour
