Answer:

0.1587

Detailed explanation:

Given: The number of purchases per hour follows a normal distribution with a mean of 1,200 purchases and a standard deviation of 200 purchases.

That means\mu=1200,\ \ \sigma=200

Let X represent the number of purchases each hour.

Thus, the proportion of hours during which the peak purchases will exceed 1,400 = 0.1587

Shannon rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each. Work out the probability of getting a total of 13.
Inessa [12160]
The probability is 0. Fair dice have six sides, and each side has an equal chance of being rolled. The maximum possible outcome with two dice is 6 + 6 = 12, rendering a total of 13 unattainable. Hence, the probability of achieving a total of 13 is 0.

Find the dimensions of the closed rectangular box with maximum volume that can be inscribed in the unit sphere.
Inessa [12160]

Answer:

Wyjaśnienie krok po kroku:

Załóżmy, że prostokąt ma wierzchołki (x,y,z) w dodatnim oktancie.  Prostokątny pudełko musi być symetryczne względem wszystkich trzech osi.

Wtedy jego boki to

2x,2y,2z

Objętość = 8xyz

Maksymalizuj objętość przy założeniu

x^2+y^2+z^2 =1

tj. g(x,y,z) = x^2+y^2+z^2 -1=0

Użyj mnożników Lagrange'a, mamy

∇f(x,y,z)=λ∇g(x,y,z)przy maksimum

∇f(x,y,z)=λ∇g(x,y,z) =(8yz,8xz,8xy)\\∇g(x,y,z)=(2x,2y,2z)

8yz=2λx8xz=2λy8xy=2λz

Dzieląc otrzymujemy

\frac{y}{x} =\frac{x}{y} \\x^2=y^2

Podobnie y^2=z^2

Zatem otrzymujemy 3x^2 =1\\x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }

Stąd wymiary to

(2x,2y,2z)

<pzatem wymiary="" to="">

\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} },\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} },\frac{2}{\sqrt{3} } )

Construct an interval estimate for the given parameter using the given sample statistic and margin of error. For μ1-μ2, using x¯
zzz [11851]

Answer: CI = (0, 8)

Step-by-step explanation: The confidence interval for the difference in means is given as

Lower limit

= (x1 - x2) + margin of error

Upper limit

= (x1 - x2) - margin of error

Where x1 - x2 = 8 and the margin of error = 8

For the lower limit,

= 8 - 8 = 0

For the upper limit

= 8 + 8 = 16

Thus, CI = (0, 8)

Lesson 3 homework practice mean absolute deviation
AnnZ [11925]
To calculate the mean absolute deviation of
1,2,3,4,5,6,7
, we start by finding the mean;
 (1+2+3+4+5+6+7) =28/7
                               = 4
. Next, we determine the absolute differences of each data point from the mean (x-μ)
 = -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3
. The absolute values are 3,2,1,0,1,2,3
. Now we compute the mean of these absolute differences,
3+2+1+0+1+2+3 = 12
                           = 12/7
                           = 1.7143
. Thus, the mean is 4, and the Mean absolute deviation comes out to be 1.7143

a falling object travels a distance given by the formula d=5t + 16t^2 ft, where t is measured in seconds. how long will it take
zzz [11851]

It is provided that

d=5t+16t^{2}

We need to determine t when d equals 74

Thus, 74=5t+16t^{2} or

16t^{2}+5t-74 = 0

16t^{2}+37t-32t-74 = 0

t(16t + 37) - 2(16t + 37) = 0

(t - 2)(16t + 37) = 0

t - 2 = 0 or 16t + 37 = 0

t cannot be negative.

Thus, t equals 2

Therefore, it will require 2 seconds for the object to cover 74 feet.
