A trucking company determined that the distance traveled per truck per year is normally​ distributed, with a mean of thousand miles and a standard deviation of thousand miles. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (d) below.

Answers

Answer 1

Complete question is;

A trucking company determined that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet was normally distributed with a mean of 55 thousand miles and a standard deviation of 11 thousand miles.

a)A truck in the fleet traveled 42 thousand miles in the last vear. Calculate the z-score for this truck.

b) Interpret the z-score

c) The trucking company has a policy that any truck with mileage more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean should be removed from the road and inspected. What is the probability that a randomly selected truck from the fleet will have to be inspected?

d) A randomly selected truck in the fleet traveled 85 thousand miles in the last year. Should this truck be removed from the road and inspected? Explain why or why not.

Answer:

A) z = - 1.18

B) Interpretation of the z-score in A above shows that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet is 1.18 standard deviations lesser than the distance traveled per truck on average

C) P(z > 2.5) = 0.0062

D) it's value of z is greater than 2.5 minimum and so the truck will be removed from the road and inspected

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are given;

Population mean; μ = 55000

Sample mean; x¯ = 42000

Standard deviation; σ = 11000

Z-score formula is;

z = (x¯ - μ)/σ

z = (42000 - 55000)/11000

z = - 1.18

B) Interpretation of the z-score in A above shows that the distance traveled per truck per year in its entire fleet is 1.18 standard deviations lesser than the distance traveled per truck on average.

C) since it has a policy that any truck with mileage more than 2.5 standard deviations above the mean should be removed from the road and inspected, then it means that probability that it will be inspected is;

P(z > 2.5) = 1 - P(z < 2.5)

From p-values from z-score table, we have;

P(z > 2.5) = 1 - 0.9938

P(z > 2.5) = 0.0062

D) A randomly selected truck in the fleet traveled 85 thousand miles in the last year. Thus; x¯ = 85000.

Thus;

z = (85000 - 55000)/11000

z = 2.73

This value of z is greater than 2.5 minimum and so the truck will be removed from the road and inspected

A company prices its tornado insurance using the following assumptions:
• In any calendar year, there can be at most one tornado.
• In any calendar year, the

calendar year.

Find the sum... 6.87 + 2.39

Answers

Answer:

9.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the table, we can deduce that:

6+2 = 8

8+3=11

7+9=16

Using addition rules:

The '1' in the 11 moves and is added to the 'ones' place.

The '1' in the 16 moves and is added to the 'hundredths' place.

Thus,

8+1 . (1+1) (6)

9.26

It is also most certainly possible to use a calculator, which is much, much easier.

Find the sum... 6.87 + 2.39

6.87 + 2.39=9.26                                                                                                

It takes 5 minutes for 10 people to drink 25 pints of water. At this rate, how long would it take 15 people to drink 155 pints of water

Answers

Answer:

the time taken for the 15 people to drink 155 pints is 20.67 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

10 people took 5 mins to drink 25 pints of water

[tex]The \ rate\ for \ 10 \ people = \frac{25 \ pints }{5 \ mins} = 5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\The \ rate \ for \ 1 \ person = \frac{5}{10} \ \frac{pints}{\min} = 0.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\The \ rate \ for \ 15 \ people = 15( 0.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} )= 7.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\Time \ taken \ for \ the \ 15 \ people \ to \ drink \ 155 \ pints = \frac{155 \ pints}{7.5 \ pints/ \min} \\\\= 20.67 \min[/tex]

Therefore, the time taken for the 15 people to drink 155 pints is 20.67 min.

Instructions : X,Y,and Z are midpoints. Find the length of each segment.​

Answers

Answer:

MZ = 10

ZO = 10

MO = 20

XZ = 9

YZ = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are all the same, proportionally.

X is midpoint of 14, so 7

Y for 18, so 9

Triangle with 10 is 7, 9, 10

Full triangle is double at 14, 18, MO

Since angle N is same angle, MO is double 10, so 20

Z is midpoint, so both halves are 10

Because of midpoints, XZ and YZ with 10 form same triangle as half triangle at 9, 7, and 10 respectively.

How do you calculate an antilog?
eg: antilog 2.1423​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  138.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Your scientific or graphing calculator will have exponential functions for bases 10 and e. On the calculator shown in the first attachment, they are shifted (2nd) functions on the log and ln keys. Consult your calculator manual for the use of these functions.

The value can be found using Desmos, the Go.ogle calculator, or any spreadsheet by typing 10^2.1423 as input. (In a spreadsheet, that will need to be =10^2.1423.) The result using the Go.ogle calculator is shown in the second attachment.

You can also use the y^x key or the ^ key (shown to the left of the log key in the first attachment). Again, you would calculate 10^2.1423.

__

We have assumed your log is to the base 10. If it is base e (a natural logarithm), then you use the e^x key instead. Desmos, and most spreadsheets, will make use of the EXP( ) function for the purpose of computing e^( ). You can type e^2.1423 into the Go.ogle calculator.

_____

Additional comment

There are also printed logarithm tables available that you can use to look up the number whose log is 0.1423. You may have to do some interpolation of table values. You should get a value of 1.3877 as the antilog. The characteristic of 2 tells you this value is multiplied by 10^2 = 100 to get the final antilog value.

The logarithm 2.1423 has a "characteristic" (integer part) of 2, and a "mantissa" (fractional part) of 0.1423.

A taxi ride cost $2 for the first 1/5 of a km and 40 cents for each additional fifth of a km. Dan has $9.60. What is the longest taxi ride he can afford, in kilometres?

Answers

Answer:

4 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

First! Let's create an equation, with our variable (x) representing the number of additional fifth kilometers Dan can afford.

2 + 0.40x = 9.60

Now, we have to solve for our x value by subtracting 2 from both sides.

0.40x = 7.60

Next, we can divide both sides by 0.40 to find out what our x value is equal too.

x = 19

Don't forget this x value is just for the number of additional fifth kilometers Dan can afford on top of his first fifth mile.

So! Dan can afford 20 fifth kilometers, which in turn in is 4 kilometers in total.

Hope this Helps! :)

Using the equation y = 30x + 45, if you have a budget of 300 dollars for this job, what are the most full hours the electrician can work? Note: You want the largest number of hours without going over your budget.

Answers

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 30x + 45

Assuming x is the hours and y is the cost

300 = 30x +45

Subtract 45 from each side

300-45 = 30x+45-45

225 = 30x

Divide by 30

225/30 = 30x/30

17/2 = x
