Answer:
(a) The standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.
(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is 0.2283.
(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation is $6312 (Money, August 2001). Assume that the amount spent is normally distributed.
(a) It is stated that 5% of American households spend less than $1000 for daily transportation.
Let X = the amount spent on daily transportation
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = average annual amount American households spend on daily transportation = $6,312
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation
Now, 5% of American households spend less than $1000 on daily transportation means that;
P(X < $1,000) = 0.05
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05
P(Z < [tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.05
In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of below 5% is given as -1.645, this means;
[tex]\frac{\$1000-\$6312}{\sigma}=-1.645[/tex]
[tex]\sigma=\frac{-\$5312}{-1.645}[/tex] = 3229.18
So, the standard deviation of the amount spent is $3229.18.
(b) The probability that a household spends between $4000 and $6000 is given by = P($4000 < X < $6000)
P($4000 < X < $6000) = P(X < $6000) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000)
P(X < $6000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$6000-\$6312}{\$3229.18}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.09) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.09)
= 1 - 0.5359 = 0.4641
P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $4000) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{\$4000-\$6312}{\$3229.18}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.72) = 1 - P(Z < 0.72)
= 1 - 0.7642 = 0.2358
Therefore, P($4000 < X < $6000) = 0.4641 - 0.2358 = 0.2283.
(c) The range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is given by;
P(X > x) = 0.03 {where x is the required range}
P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03
P(Z > [tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}[/tex] ) = 0.03
In the z-table, the critical value of z which represents the area of top 3% is given as 1.88, this means;
[tex]\frac{x-\$6312}{3229.18}=1.88[/tex]
[tex]{x-\$6312}=1.88\times 3229.18[/tex]
x = $6312 + 6070.86 = $12382.86
So, the range of spending for 3% of households with the highest daily transportation cost is $12382.86 or more.

Samira and Sonia each have a bag containing 20 sweets. In each bag, there are 5 red, 6 green and 9 yellow sweets.
(a)
(b)
Samira chooses one sweet at random from her bag.
Write down the probability that she chooses a yellow sweet.
[1] Sonia chooses two sweets at random, without replacement, from her bag.
(i) Show that the probability that she chooses two green sweets is 3 . 38
(ii) Calculate the probability that the sweets she chooses are not both the same colour.
Step-by-step explanation:
there must be some typos here. but I try to address the right issues.
there is nothing under (a). so, really nothing to answer.
(b)
there are 20 sweets in her bag. 9 if the 20 are yellow.
so, the probability is the ratio of desired possibilities vs. total possibilities.
that is, tada! 9/20
that is the probabilty for Samira to pick a yellow sweet.
[1] (i)
again, 20 sweets to start with.
6 are green.
when she picks the first one, her probability to pick a green one is 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.3
and now, under the assumption that this came true, she picks another sweet.
this time she had only 19 left, and 5 of them are green.
so, this probabilty is 5/19
now both events need to happen for the case we are discussing. there is no overlapping, no ors, ifs and buts. it is just the product of both probabilities.
3/10 × 5/19 = 15/190 = 3/38
I think that is what the description asks for.
(ii)
that probability is
first selection is red and second is not red +
first selection is green and second is not green +
first selection is yellow and second is not yellow
so,
red and not red
5/20 = 1/4 red
15/19 not red (there are still 15 sweets of other colors in the bag, but again now only 19 total).
red and not red = 1/4 × 15/19 = 15/76 = 0.1974
green and not green
6/20 = 3/10 = green
14/19 = not green
green and not green = 3/10 × 14/19 = 52/190 = 26/95 =
= 0.2737
yellow and not yellow
9/20 = yellow
11/19 = not yellow
yellow and not yellow = 9/20 × 11/19 = 99/380 = 0.2606
so, now assuming up all 3 possibilities ("or" = sum) gives us the general possibility of selecting two different colors
= 0.7316
please help, not so good with this subject
Answer:
I believe the answer is d
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers.
In this case, since [tex]\sqrt{81}[/tex] can be simplified to 9 and 9 can be written as a fraction (9/1) it is a rational number.

There are 50 teenagers at a swim meet. The ratio of locals to out-of-town
participants is 2:3. How many teenagers travelled from out-of-town to the swim
meet?
Answer:
There are 30 out of towners
Step-by-step explanation:
locals: out of town: total
2 3 2+3 = 5
There are 50 total 50/5 =10 so multiply each term by 10
locals: out of town: total
2*10 3 *10 5*10
20 30 50
There are 30 out of towners
Total teenagers = 50
Ratio = 2:3
Let the ratio people out of town be x
2x + 3x = 50
5x = 50
x = 10
Therefore 3× 10, 30 people out of town travelled to swim meet

Flying against the wind, a jet travels 1650 miles in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same jet travels 3480 miles in 4 hours. What is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the rate of the plane be x
The rate of the wind be y
Against the wind
Resultant velocity = x-y
1650/3 = x - y
550 = x - y
With the wind
Resultant velocity = x + y
3480/4 = x + y
870 = x + y
Solve equation simultaneously
Add both equations
870+550 = x+y+x-y
1420 = 2x
x = 710
x + y = 870
y=870 - 710
y = 160
The rate of jet in still air = 710 mph
The rate of wind = 160 mph

Answer:
The systems of equation for the amount spent are as follows
[tex]Y= 0.99x+5[/tex]
[tex]Y= 0.79x+10[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem we are expect to give a model or an equation that represents the amount of money spent per month given a fix subscription amount and a variable fee which is based on extra minutes spent.
let Y represent the amount of money spent in total for the month
The first case:
Subscription =$5
charges per minutes = $0.99
therefore the amount spent can be modeled as
[tex]Y= 0.99x+5[/tex]
The second case:
Subscription =$10
charges per minutes = $0.79
therefore the amount spent can be modeled as
[tex]Y= 0.79x+10[/tex]

During a catered lunch =, an average of 4 cups of tea are poured per minute. The lunch will last 2 hours. How many gallons of tea should the caterer bring if there are 16 cups in one gallon?
Answer:
30 gallons of tea
Step-by-step explanation:
We are looking at the average of cups of tea per minute but we are given the time frame of lunch in hours, so first, we have to convert the hours to minutes:
There are 60 minutes in 1 hour and lunch is 2 hours long. So, multiply 60 by 2 to get 120 minutes total.
Next, we have to find out the number of cups of tea poured during the lunch. We have been told already that an average of 4 cups of tea are poured a minute.
Therefore, multiply 4 by the total number of minutes for lunch. You will multiply 4 by 20 to get 480 cups of tea poured in total during the catered lunch.
Finally, we have to see how many gallons of tea the caterer should bring. We should know that there are 16 cups in one gallon.
That means we have to divide the total number of cups poured by 16. Divide 480 by 16 to get 30 gallons of tea that the caterer should bring.

Answer:
298.3 square centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given
Slant height (l)= 14cm
Radius (r)= 5cm
Since we are given the slant height ,
the formula for surface area of a cone =
πrl + πr²
πr(l + r)
π = 3.14
Hence,
3.14 × 5(14 + 5)
3.14 × 5(19)
= 298.3 square centimeters
If the function 5x + y = 1 has the domain {-2, 1, 6}, then what is the corresponding range?
Answer:
{ 11, -4, -29}
Step-by-step explanation:
5(-2) + y = 1
-10 + y = 1
y = 11
5(1) + y = 1
y = -4
5(6) + y = 1
30 + y = 1
y = -29
Answer:
The Range is the set: { -29, -4, 11 }
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to apply the given function to the x-values of the Domain, to find what values of the Range they are associated with. So let's start by isolating y on one side of the expression:
y = 1 - 5 x
Now let's find what values they result when x = -2, 1, and 6:
y = 1 - 5 (-2) = 1 + 10 = 11
y = 1 - 5 (1) = 1 - 5 = -4
y = 1 - 5 (6) = 1 - 30 = -29
Therefore the Range is the set: { -29, -4, 11 }

What is the reason: if a+c=b+c then a=b
Step-by-step explanation:
Example 1:
a+c=b+c then a=b
First let the value of a and b be different (not equal)
a=5
b=7
c=10
a+c=b+c
5+10=7+10
15≠17
Example 2:
Let the value a and b be equal (the same)
a=5
b=5
c=10
a+c=b+c
5+10=5+10
15=15
So when,
a+c and b+c is equal, a and b are always equal.
Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤
Answer:
a=b
Step-by-step explanation:
Reason:
a+c=b+c
a-b=c-c
c-c would be 0
if a-b=c-c=0
a-b=0
Only if a=b can a-b=0
You can also take it as:
b-a=c-c (a+c=b+c)
b-a=0=c-c
Therefore b=a
