Suppose that the average speed of cars on a busy section of a local highway was normally distributed with a mean of 65 mph and standard deviation of 4 mph. What is the probability that the speed of a random car in this data set was less than 53 mph?

0.025
0.0015
0.16
0.475

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Choice B)  0.0015

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

Explanation:

mu = 65 = population meansigma = 4 = population standard deviation

Let's convert x = 53 to its corresponding z score

z = (x-mu)/sigma

z = (53-65)/4

z = -12/4

z = -3

This indicates we're 3 standard deviations below the mean.

Recall that the Empirical Rule states that roughly 99.7% of the data items in a normal distribution are within 3 standard deviations of the mean. That leaves 100% - 99.7% = 0.3% outside this range. This small percentage is the combined percentage in both tails. Take half of this to find the amount in the left tail only.

(0.3%)/2 = 0.15%

This then converts to 0.0015 when we move the decimal point 2 spots to the left.

Here is a linear equation in two variables: 2x+4y−31=123

Answers

Answer:

y=−11x+77/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The procedure for solving simultaneous linear equations now called Gaussian elimination appears in the ancient Chinese mathematical text Chapter Eight: Rectangular Arrays of The Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art. Its use is illustrated in eighteen problems, with two to five equations.[4]

Systems of linear equations arose in Europe with the introduction in 1637 by René Descartes of coordinates in geometry. In fact, in this new geometry, now called Cartesian geometry, lines and planes are represented by linear equations, and computing their intersections amounts to solving systems of linear equations.

The first systematic methods for solving linear systems used determinants, first considered by Leibniz in 1693. In 1750, Gabriel Cramer used them for giving explicit solutions of linear systems, now called Cramer's rule. Later, Gauss further described the method of elimination, which was initially listed as an advancement in geodesy.[5]

In 1844 Hermann Grassmann published his "Theory of Extension" which included foundational new topics of what is today called linear algebra. In 1848, James Joseph Sylvester introduced the term matrix, which is Latin for womb.

Linear algebra grew with ideas noted in the complex plane. For instance, two numbers w and z in {\displaystyle \mathbb {C} }\mathbb {C}  have a difference w – z, and the line segments {\displaystyle {\overline {wz}}}{\displaystyle {\overline {wz}}} and {\displaystyle {\overline {0(w-z)}}}{\displaystyle {\overline {0(w-z)}}} are of the same length and direction. The segments are equipollent. The four-dimensional system {\displaystyle \mathbb {H} }\mathbb {H}  of quaternions was started in 1843. The term vector was introduced as v = x i + y j + z k representing a point in space. The quaternion difference p – q also produces a segment equipollent to {\displaystyle {\overline {pq}}.}{\displaystyle {\overline {pq}}.} Other hypercomplex number systems also used the idea of a linear space with a basis.

Arthur Cayley introduced matrix multiplication and the inverse matrix in 1856, making possible the general linear group. The mechanism of group representation became available for describing complex and hypercomplex numbers. Crucially, Cayley used a single letter to denote a matrix, thus treating a matrix as an aggregate object. He also realized the connection between matrices and determinants, and wrote "There would be many things to say about this theory of matrices which should, it seems to me, precede the theory of determinants".[5]

Benjamin Peirce published his Linear Associative Algebra (1872), and his son Charles Sanders Peirce extended the work later.[6]

The telegraph required an explanatory system, and the 1873 publication of A Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism instituted a field theory of forces and required differential geometry for expression. Linear algebra is flat differential geometry and serves in tangent spaces to manifolds. Electromagnetic symmetries of spacetime are expressed by the Lorentz transformations, and much of the history of linear algebra is the history of Lorentz transformations.

The first modern and more precise definition of a vector space was introduced by Peano in 1888;[5] by 1900, a theory of linear transformations of finite-dimensional vector spaces had emerged. Linear algebra took its modern form in the first half of the twentieth century, when many ideas and methods of previous centuries were generalized as abstract algebra. The development of computers led to increased research in efficient algorithms for Gaussian elimination and matrix decompositions, and linear algebra became an essential tool for modelling and simulations.[5]

Vector spaces

Main article: Vector space

Until the 19th century, linear algebra was introduced through systems of linear equations and matrices. In modern mathematics, the presentation through vector spaces is generally preferred, since it is more synthetic, more general (not limited to the finite-dimensional case), and conceptually simpler, although more abstract.

A vector space over a field F (often the field of the real numbers) is a set V equipped with two binary operations satisfying the following axioms. Elements of V are called vectors, and elements of F are called scalars. The first operation, vector addition, takes any two vectors v and w and outputs a third vector v + w. The second operation, scalar multiplication, takes any scalar a and any vector v and outputs a new vector av. The axioms that addition and scalar multiplication must satisfy are the following. (In the list below, u, v and w are arbitrary elements of V, and a and b are arbitrary scalars in the field F.)[7]

On Saturday morning, Ahmed decided to take a bike ride from one end of the 15-mile bike trail to the other end of the bike trail and back. His average speed the first half of the ride was 2 mph faster than his speed on the second half. Find an expression for Ahmed's total travel time. If his average speed for the first half of the ride was 12 mph, how long was Ahmed's bike ride? ​

Answers

The expression which relates the total time taken and the time taken for the trip is [15s + 15(s+2)] / s² + 2s and 2.32 hours respectively.

Travel time = distance ÷ speed

Second half of the trip :

Speed = s mph

Distance covered = 15 miles

Time taken for second half of trip :

Time taken = 15 / s

First half of the trip :

Speed = s + 2 mph

Time taken for first half of trip :

Time taken = 15 / (s+2)

Total time taken :

First half + second half

15/(s+2) + 15/s = [15s + 15(s+2)] / s² + 2s

B)

If s = 12

Substitute s = 12 into the expression :

[15(12) + 15(12+2)] / 12² + 2(12)

[180 + 210] / 144 + 24

390 / 168

= 2.32 hours

Therefore, the total time taken is 2.32 hours.

Angle 6 is equal to angle 7 so we can substitute angle 7 in for any equations that require angle six what we would want to do is (13x + 9)°+(5x + 9)°= 180°, then you would combine like terms which would then give you 18x+18=180 after this you want to isolate your variable by subtracting 18 from both sides which would give you 18x=162 then you would divide 162 by 18 to give you x=9 next to find angle 6 you would substitute x in the equation so it would be (5(9)+9) 5 multiplied by 9 then add 9 which would give you 45 + 9 which equals out to 54.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) ∠1 =  ∠2   {Alternate angles are equal}

6x + y - 4 = x - 9y  + 1

6x + y      = x - 9y + 1 + 4

6x + y      = x - 9y + 5

6x - x  + y + 9y = 5

  5x  + 10y = 5

Divide the entire equation by 5

  x  + 2y = 1 -------------(I)

∠2 + ∠3 = 180       {Linear pair}

x - 9y + 1 + 11x + 2 = 180

x + 11x - 9y   = 180 - 2 - 1

          12x - 9y = 177

Divide the whole equation by 3

       4x - 3y  = 59    -------------(II)

B) Multiply equation (I) by 3 and multiply equation (II) by 2. Thus y will be eliminated and we can find the value of x.

(I)* 3           3x + 6y = 3

(II)*2           8x - 6y =  118    {Now add}

                  11x        = 121

                            x = 121/11

x = 11

Plugin x = 11 in equation (I)

                            11 + 2y = 1

                                  2y = 1 -11

                                  2y = -10

                                   y = -10/2

y = -5

C) ∠1 = 6x + y - 4

         = 6*11  - 5 - 4

          = 66 - 5 - 4

           = 57

∠2  = x - 9y + 1

        = 11 -9*(-5) + 1

         = 11 + 45 + 1

          = 57

∠3 = 11x + 2

      = 11*11 + 2

      = 121 + 2

      = 123

Question 8 measurements. Angle H (acute) Angle M (obtuse) Angle K (acute)

Question 9 measurements. Angle P (right) Angle Q (obtuse) Angle R (acute) Angle S (obtuse) Angle T (right)

Any angle that is visibly smaller than 90° in shape is an acute angle.

Any angle that has a square denoted inside the angle means that it is a 90° angle, therefore implying that it is a right angle.

Any angle that is visibly bigger than 90° in shape is an obtuse angle.

Note that in the Q.8, the total summation of the interior angles for a triangle is  180°. In this case, ∠H & ∠K can be safely assumed to be smaller than right angles, which means that ∠M would be either a right angle or obtuse. However, it is not given that ∠M is a right angle, and so the answer is obtuse.

a. Angle H: acute angle

b. Angle M: obtuse angle

c. Angle K: acute angle

It is given that angles P & T are right angles (as denoted by the squares). Therefore, angle Q & S are obtuse, and angle R is acute, based on visible differences:

a. angle P: Right angle.

b. angle Q: Obtuse angle.

c. angle R: Acute angle.

d. angle S: Obtuse angle.

e. angle T: Right angle.

Usually you will not be using visibility to solve the angle measurements, but in this case, it is not stated that shapes are not drawn to scale. Therefore, you can safely assume based on what the angles look like to answer.
