The annual gas bill for a town household are considered to be normally distributed with a mean of $ 1130 and a standard deviation of $ 150. If one household is randomly selected, what is the probability that the gas bill will be between $900 and $1100?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.358102[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 1130[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 150[/tex]

   

Generally the probability that the gas bill will be between $900 and  $1100 is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(\frac{900 - 1130 }{150 } < \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } < \frac{1100 - 1130 }{150 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(-1.533 < \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } < -0.2 )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } = Z (The\ standardized \ value \ of \ X)[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P(-1.533 < Z< -0.2 )[/tex]

   [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = P( Z< -0.2 ) - P(Z < -1.533)[/tex]

From the z  table  

     [tex]P(Z < -0.2 ) = 0.42074[/tex]

and

     [tex]P(Z < -1.533) = 0.062638[/tex]

So

     [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.42074 - 0.062638[/tex]

=> [tex]P(900 < X < 1100) = 0.358102[/tex]

A city planner wants to build a bridge across a lake in the park. To find the length of the bridge, he makes a right triangle with one leg and the hypotenuse on land and the bridge as the other leg. The length of the hypotenuse is 340 feet and the other leg is 160 feet. Find the length of the bridge

Answers

Answer:

The length of the bridge is 300 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the length of one leg.

Let B represent the length of the other leg (i.e length of the bridge)

Let C represent the length of the Hypothenus.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Length of Hypothenus (C) = 340 feet.

Length of one leg (A) = 160 feet.

Length of the bridge (B) =.?

The length of the bridge can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

C² = A² + B²

340² = 160² + B²

115600 = 25600 + B²

Collect like terms

115600 – 25600 = B²

90000 = B²

Take the square root of both side

B = √90000

B = 300 feet

Therefore, the length of the bridge is 300 feet

1) Gracie has a piece of wood that is 5 feet long to use for two projects. She uses 2 feet of the wood on her first project. Which statement describes how a number line can be used to find the length of wood Gracie has remaining for her second project? * Start at 5 and then move left 2 Start at 5 and then move right 2 Start at 2 and then move left 5 Start at 2 and then move right 5

Answers

Answer:

Start at 5 and then move left 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a piece of wood with Gracie = 5 feets

Length of a piece of wood used on the first project = 2 feets

To find: statement that describes how a number line can be used to find the length of wood Gracie has remaining for her second project

Solution:

The statement that describes how a number line can be used to find the length of wood Gracie has remaining for her second project is

Start at 5 and then move left 2

In this way [tex]5-2=3[/tex]

That is Gracie has now 3 feets of wood available that can be used for her second project.

Using the concept of a number line, the number of wood grace has left would be Start at 5 and then move left 2

Using the concept of a number line :

Positive values are to the right of 0 ; hence, the initial amount of wood grace has is +5

Using two feets from the initial length, then we would Subtract 2 from the the initial value ;

To perform subtraction on a number line, we count to the left ;

Therefore, the correct statement is Start at 5 and then move left 2

Jacob and Sophia are in a running club and record how long it takes them to run a 5-kilometer race. Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average time of the running club. The difference between Jacob's time and Sophia's time is 10 minutes. The possible times of Sophia's run are ____ minutes below the average or ____ minutes above the average.

Answers

Answer:

14 minutes below or 6 minutes above

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Sophia's time was 10 minutes WORSE

4 minutes below average- 10 minutes= 14 minutes below average

Let's say Sophia's time was ten minutes BETTER

4 minutes below average + 10 minutes= 6 minutes above average.

Hope this helps!

Answers:

14 minutes below the average

6 minutes above the average

=====================================================

Let A = average running time

Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average, so his time is A-4 minutes. Whatever A is, subtract off 4, and you'll get Jacob's time.

Sophia and Jacob have a difference of 10 minutes. If J = Jacob's time and S = sophia's time, then S-J = 10 or J-S = 10 depending on who has the larger time.

We can use absolute value to ensure that whatever we pick (S-J or J-S) will be positive. So |S-J| = 10. Recall that absolute value represents distance on a number line. Negative distance isn't possible.

-------------

Let's plug in J = A-4 and solve for S

|S-J| = 10

|S - ( J )| = 10

|S - (A-4)|

|S-A+4| = 10

S-A+4 = 10  or  S-A+4 = -10

S-A = 10-4  or  S-A = -10-4

S-A = 6  or  S-A = -14

S = A+6 or S = A-14

The equation S = A+6 shows Sophia is 6 minutes above the average

The equation S = A-14 shows Sophia is 14 minutes below the average

-------------

Let's pick some number for A that is over 14 minutes. Let's say the average running time is A = 20 minutes.

If A = 20, then Jacob's time is J = A-4 = 20-4 = 16

If the average running time is 20 minutes, then Jacob ran for 16 minutes.

If we subtract 10 from this, then J-10 = 16-10 = 6 is one possible time for Sophia. Notice how this is 14 minutes below the average (20-14 = 6)

If we add 10 to Jacob's time, then J+10 = 16+10 = 26, which is 6 minutes overage the average (20+6 = 26)

This is one numeric example, but you could use any value of A that you want as long as it's larger than 14. The reason A has to be larger than 14 is to ensure that Sophia's lower time value (A-14) is not negative. Having a time of zero is not feasible either.

Shelly runs 2.5 miles in 18 minutes. what is her mile time in minutes.​

Answers

Answer:

7.2315656

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's agree that 2.5 miles : 18 minutes is the ratio between the amount of distance and the amount of time spent running. If we spent 2x as many minutes running, Shelly would run 5 miles. In the same context, let's find the amount of distance covered in 18 minutes.

18 × (60/18) = 60

We multiply 60/18 because 60/18 = 60 × (1/18), and the (1/18) cancels with the 18 so we are left with the numerator, 60.

2.5 : 18

Now, we have to multiply 60/18 on both sides!

2.5 × (60/18) : 18 × (60/18) = 60

2.5 × (60/18) = 8 and 1/3 miles
