Trucks in a delivery fleet travel a mean of 120 miles per day with a standard deviation of 23 miles per day. The mileage per day is distributed normally. Find the probability that a truck drives less than 159 miles in a day. Round your answer to four decimal places.
Answer:
the probability that a truck drives less than 159 miles in a day = 0.9374
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
mean of the truck's speed, (m) = 120 miles per day
standard deviation, d = 23 miles per day
If the mileage per day is normally distributed, we use the following conceptual method to determine the probability of less than 159 miles per day;
1 standard deviation above the mean = m + d, = 120 + 23 = 143
2 standard deviation above the mean = m + 2d, = 120 + 46 = 166
159 is below 2 standard deviation above the mean but greater than 1 standard deviation above the mean.
For normal districution, 1 standard deviation above the mean = 84 percentile
Also, 2 standard deviation above the mean = 98 percentile
143 --------> 84%
159 ---------> x
166 --------- 98%
[tex]\frac{159-143}{166-143} = \frac{x-84}{98-84} \\\\\frac{16}{23} = \frac{x-84}{14} \\\\23(x-84) = 224\\\\x-84 = 9.7391\\\\x = 93.7391\ \%[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that a truck drives less than 159 miles in a day = 0.9374

What is the value of x in the equation 5(3x + 4) = 23?
Answer:
x = 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5(3x + 4) = 23
Distribute
15x+20 = 23
Subtract 20 from each side
15x+20-20 = 23-20
15x = 3
Divide by 15
15x/15 = 3/15
x = 1/5
Answer:
[tex]x = 0.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Distribute
[tex]5(3x + 4) = 23[/tex]
[tex](5 * 3x) + (5 * 4) = 23[/tex]
[tex](15x) + 20 = 23[/tex]
Step 2: Subtract 20 from both sides
[tex](15x) + 20 - 20 = 23 - 20[/tex]
[tex]15x = 3[/tex]
Step 3: Divide both sides by 15
[tex]\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{3}{15}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x = 0.2[/tex]
Answer: [tex]x = 0.2[/tex]
The number N(t) of supermarkets throughout the country that are using a computerized checkout system is described by the initial-value problem
dN/dt = N(1 − 0.0008N), N(0) = 1.
Required:
Predict how many supermarkets are expected to adopt the new procedure over a long period of time?
Answer:
1250 supermarkets
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = N(1 - 0.0008N)[/tex]
[tex]N(0) = 1[/tex]
Required
Number of supermarkets over a long period of time
To do this, we simply set
[tex]\frac{dN}{dt} = 0[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]N(1 - 0.0008N) = 0[/tex]
Split
[tex]N = 0\ or\ 1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]
Solve: [tex]1 - 0.0008N = 0[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]0.0008N = 1[/tex]
Make N the subject
[tex]N = \frac{1}{0.0008}[/tex]
[tex]N = 1250[/tex]
So:
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} N(t) = 1250[/tex]

1. You are given the 3rd and 5th term of an arithmetic sequence. Describe in words how to determine the general term.
2. You are given the 3rd and 5th term of an geometric sequence. Describe how to determine the 10th term without finding the general term.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. In an arithmetic sequence, the general term can be written as
xₙ = y + d(a-1), where xₐ represents the ath term, y is the first value, and d is the common difference.
Given the third term and the fifth term, and knowing that the difference between each term is d, we can say that the 4th term is x₃+d and the fifth term is the fourth term plus d, or (x₃+d)+d =
x₃+2d. =x₅ Given x₃ and x₅, we can subtract x₃ from both sides to get
x₅-x₃ = 2d
divide by 2 to isolate d
(x₅-x₃)/2 = d
This lets us solve for d. Given d, we can say that
x₃ = y+d(2)
subtract 2*d from both sides to isolate the y
x₃ -2*d = y
Therefore, because we know x₃ and d at this point, we can solve for y, letting us plug y and d into our original equation of
xₙ = y + d(a-1)
2.
Given the third and fifth term, with a common ratio of r, we can say that the fourth term is x₃ * r. Then, the fifth term is
x₃* r * r
= x₃*r² = x₅
divide both sides by x₃ to isolate the r²
x₅/x₃ = r²
square root both sides
√(x₅/x₃) = ±r
One thing that is important to note is that we don't know whether r is positive or negative. For example, if x₃ = 4 and x₅ = 16, regardless of whether r is equal to 2 or -2, 4*r² = 16. I will be assuming that r is positive for this question.
Given the common ratio, we can find x₆ as x₅ * r, x₇ as x₅*r², and all the way up to x₁₀ = x₅*r⁵. We don't know the general term, but can still find the tenth term of the sequence

Answer:
x = 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We can only solve for x if the triangles are similar. The arrows on the left and right legs say those are parallel. Since alternate interior angles at each of the transversals are congruent, the triangles are AA similar.
ΔABC ~ ΔDEC, so we have ...
EC/ED = BC/BA
x/(18 cm) = (35 cm)/(45 cm)
x = (18 cm)(7/9) = 14 cm
The function below models the correlation between the number of hours a plant is kept in sunlight (x) and the height (y), in mm, to which it grows: y = 2 + 4x What does the y-intercept of this function represent? (1 point) The original height of the plant was 4 mm. The original height of the plant was 2 mm. The height of the plant increases by 2 mm for every hour of sunlight it receives. The height of the plant increases by 4 mm for every hour of sunlight it receives.
Answer:
The original height of the plant was 2 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]y = 2 + 4x[/tex]
Required
Interpret the y-intercept
The y-intercept is when [tex]x = 0[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]y = 2 + 4 *0[/tex]
[tex]y = 2 + 0[/tex]
[tex]y = 2[/tex]
This implies that the original or initial height was 2 mm

You measure 40 watermelons' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 67 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 11.4 ounces. Based on this, what is the maximal margin of error associated with a 99% confidence interval for the true population mean watermelon weight.
Answer:
[tex]35.36,44.64[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Sample size [tex]n=40[/tex]
Mean weight [tex]\=x =67[/tex]
Standard deviation [tex]\sigma=11.4[/tex]
Confidence Interval [tex]CI=0.99[/tex]
\alpha==0.01
Therefore
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=Z_[0.005][/tex]
From table
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=2.576[/tex]
Generally, the equation for Margin of error is mathematically given by
[tex]M.E=Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}*(\frac{\sigma}{sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]M.E=2.576*(\frac{11.4}{\sqrt{40}}[/tex]
[tex]M.E=4.64[/tex]
Therefore Estimated mean is
[tex]\=x-M.E<\mu <\=x +E[/tex]
[tex]40-4.64<\mu< 40+4.64[/tex]
[tex]35.36<\mu < 44.64[/tex]

Two cars start moving from the same point. One travels south at 24 mi/h and the other travels west at 18 mi/h. At what rate (in mi/h) is the distance between the cars increasing two hours later
Answer:
The rate at which the distance between the two cars is increasing is 30 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
speed of the first car, v₁ = 24 mi/h
speed of the second car, v₂ = 18 mi/h
Two hours later, the position of the cars is calculated as;
position of the first car, d₁ = 24 mi/h x 2 h = 48 mi
position of the second car, d₂ = 18 mi/h x 2 h = 36 mi
The displacement of the two car is calculated as;
displacement, d² = 48² + 36²
d² = 3600
d = √3600
d = 60 mi
The rate at which this displacement is changing = (60 mi) / (2h)
= 30 mi/h

Which of the following questions are equivalent to the answer below x 3/5
Answer:
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (x^3 )^\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = \sqrt[5]{x^3}[/tex]
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (\sqrt[5]{x})^3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
Required
The equivalent expressions
We have:
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
Expand the exponent
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = x^{ 3 * \frac{1}{5}}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (x^3 )^\frac{1}{5}[/tex] ----- this is equivalent
Express 1/5 as roots (law of indices)
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = \sqrt[5]{x^3}[/tex] ------ this is equivalent
The above can be rewritten as:
[tex]x^\frac{3}{5} = (\sqrt[5]{x})^3[/tex] ------ this is equivalent
Two chords in a circle intersect. One chord is made of 6 and 5, and the other is made of x +1 and x. What is x?
Answer:
x = 5 and -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the intersecting chord theorem which states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal.
Hence:
let
a = 6, b = 5, c = x+1 and d = x
Therefore, ab = cd
6*5 = x(x+1)
30 = x²+x
x²+x - 30 = 0
x²+ 6x - 5x - 30 = 0
x(x+6) - 5(x+6) =0
(x-5)(x+6) = 0
x-5 =0 and x+6 = 0
x = 5 and -6

What is the distance between the points (7, 8) and (-8, 0) on a coordinate grid?
Answer:
17 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the distance formula, [tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Plug in the points and simplify:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{(-8 - 7)^2 + (0-8)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{(-15)^2 + (-8)^2}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{225 + 64[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{289[/tex]
[tex]d = 17[/tex]
So, the distance between the points is 17 units
How would the following triangle be classified?
O scalene acute
O scalene obtuse
O isosceles acute
O isosceles obtuse
Answer:
isosceles acute
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two sides that are equal so the triangle is isosceles
None of the angles are larger than 90 degrees so non of the angles are obtuse, and none of the angles are 90 degrees, so the triangle is acute ( which means the angles are all less than 90 degrees)

Use the integral test to determine whether the series is convergent or divergent. [infinity] n = 2 n2 n3 + 1 Evaluate the following integral. [infinity] 2 x2 x3 + 1 dx
I think the given series is
[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=2}^\infty \frac{n^2}{n^3+1}[/tex]
You can use the integral test because the summand is clearly positive and decreasing. Then
[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=2}^\infty\frac{n^2}{n^3+1} > \int_2^\infty\frac{x^2}{x^3+1}\,\mathrm dx[/tex]
Substitute u = x ³ + 1 and du = 3x ² dx, so the integral becomes
[tex]\displaystyle \int_2^\infty\frac{x^2}{x^3+1}\,\mathrm dx = \frac13\int_9^\infty\frac{\mathrm du}u = \frac13\ln(u)\bigg|_{u=9}^{u\to\infty}[/tex]
As u approaches infinity, we have ln(u) also approaching infinity (whereas 1/3 ln(9) is finite), so the integral and hence the sum diverges.
Enter the solutions from least to greatest.
