The number of potholes in any given 1 mile stretch of freeway pavement in Pennsylvania has a bell-shaped distribution. This distribution has a mean of 56 and a standard deviation of 10. Using the empirical rule, what is the approximate percentage of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 36 and 86?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

97.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule formula states:

95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ .

99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ .

From the question, we have the mean of :

Mean of 56 and a standard deviation of 10.

For 36

36 = μ - xσ

36 = 56 - 10x

56 - 36 = 10x

20 = 10x

x = 20/10

x = 2

Hence, the data falls within 2 standard deviation of the mean

Hence, since it is one side,

= 95%

= 47.5%

For 86

86 = μ - xσ

86 = 56 - 10x

56 - 86 = 10x

-30 = 10x

x = -30/10

x = -3

Hence, the data falls within 3 standard deviation of the mean

Hence, since it is 99.7% one side,

= 99.7%

= 49.85%

Hence, we add up

= 47.5% + 49.85%

= 97.35%

The approximate percentage of 1-mile long roadways with potholes numbering between 36 and 86 is 97.35%

What is the same-side interior angle theorem?

The same-side interior angle theorem states that when two lines that are parallel are intersected by a transversal line, the same-side interior angles that are formed are supplementary, or add up to 180 degrees.

According to the question

4x , 5x are angles given

As,

They are angles between  parallel line and same side of transversal line  

according to same-side interior angle theorem that are formed are supplementary .

i.e  there sum = 180°

4x + 5x= 180°

9x = 180°

x = 180°/9

x = 20°

So,

4x = 20 * 4 = 80°

5x = 20 * 5 = 100°

Hence, The value of 4x and 5x is 80° and 100° respectively .

What is AA similarity property?

AA is angle-angle similarity property.

In the given figure, both of these triangles show two given angles which are 42 degrees.

It there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 75% of US businesses monitor employees web site visits? Test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01

Answers

Complete question is;

In a survey of 565 U.S. businesses, 430 of these companies indicated that they monitor employees' web site visits. For purposes of this exercise, assume that it is reasonable to regard this sample as representative of businesses in the United States.

Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that more than 75% of U.S. businesses monitor employees' web site visits? Test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)

Answer:

There's not sufficient evidence to suggest that more than 75%  of U.S. businesses monitor employees website visits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population proportion; p^ = 430/565 = 0.761

Sample proportion; p = 75% = 0.75

Significance level; α = 0.01

Sample size; n = 560

Let's define the hypotheses;

Null hypothesis; H0: p = 0.75

Alternative hypothesis: p > 0.75

Formula for the test statistic is;

z = (p^ - p)/√[p^(1 - p^)/n]

z = (0.75 - 0.761)/√(0.75(1 - 0.75)/560)

z = -0.011/√0.00033482143

z = -0.011/0.0183

z = -0.60

From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using; z = -0.60, significance level = 0.01, one tailed hypothesis, we have;

P-value ≈ 0.2743

The p-value is greater than the significance level and so we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there's not sufficient evidence to suggest that more than 75%  of U.S. businesses monitor employees website visits.

Answer:

  B)  The incenter is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The incenter is the center of the inscribed circle, which is tangent to all three sides. Hence, the distance from the incenter to each side is the radius of the circle. The incenter is equidistant from the sides of the triangle.

Which of the statements is not true?

On the graph, we can see a line that contains points A, B, and C.

Now we want to see which statement is false.

Now, because A, B, and C are on the same line, is trivial that:

AB, AC, and BC (these 3 lines) have the same slope, because these are 3 different names for the exact same line.

Help me<3. Its maph ugggggg brain hurt......*dieing noises*

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to solve this, but the only one I remember how to do is with the pythagorean theorem. The distance between A and B is the same as a hypotenuse of a triangle with a height the absolute value of y1-y2 and a base of the absolute value of x1-x2.

For example, in the first question, the coordinates are (1,2) and (9,8), so we have a triangle with base 8(9 - 1) and 6(8 - 2). Now we just need to plug that into the pythagorean theorem like so:

[tex] {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c }^{2} [/tex]

or plugging our numbers in,

[tex]8^{2} + {6}^{2} = 100[/tex]

The answer is the radical of the answer, in this case 10.

  P = 3x +32

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the short vertical edge at top center is 10 yards, as it was in two previous problems with this geometry, then we can find the area of the present parking lot as ...

  (x-2)(3x) + x(3x -10) +2x(40) = 6x^2 +64x

where the left vertical rectangle is 3x high and x-2 wide; the center area between vertical rectangles is (2x-2)-(x-2) = x wide and (3x-10) high; and the right vertical rectangle is (x-2 +3x)-(2x-2) = 2x wide and 40 high.

As we said, the right vertical rectangle is 2x wide, so the area that has P as one of its dimensions is ...

  A = LW = P(2x)

We want this to be the same as the existing area, so ...

  2Px = 6x^2 +64x

  P = 3x +32 . . . . . divide by 2x
