uppose that the length of 20 years worth of baseball games has been investigated, and that it has been found that the average (mean) length of a game is 165 minutes and the standard deviation is 30 minutes. What is the probability that a randomly selected game will last between 120 and 210 minutes

P(120< x < 210) =  0.8664

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

time length = 20 year

average mean time μ = 165 min

standard deviation σ = 30 min

randomly selected game between = 120 and 210 minute

solution

so here probability between 120 and 210 will be

P(120< x < 210) =

P(120< x < 210) =

P(120< x < 210) = P(-1.5< Z < 1.5)

P(120< x < 210) = P(Z< 1.5) - P(Z< -1.5)

now we will use here this function in excel function

=NORMSDIST(z)

=NORMSDIST(-1.5)

P(120< x < 210) = 0.9332 - 0.0668

P(120< x < 210) =  0.8664

answer: ratio of volume of cone (with 3 times the height and equal diameter) to volume of cylinder is 2 to 1. the value of π is not used.

step-by-step explanation:

radius is diameter/2 = 4.

area of circle is π r^2.

volume of cylinder is height × area of base = hπr^2 = 3(4^2) π = 48π cubic inches.

not knowing the formula for volume of cone, i calculate it using calculus (which is for calculating things).

volume of cone is integral 0 to h area(y) dy. area(y) is π r(y)^2. r(y) runs r to zero as y runs zero to h, r(0) = r, r(h) = 0.

r(y) = r - r/h y

area(y) = π (r - r/h y)^2 = π (r^2 - 2r^2y/h + r^2y^2/h^2) = π r^2(1-2y/h+y^2/h^2)

antiderivative area(y) = π r^2 (y-y^2/h+y^3/(3h^2))

integral 0 to h = π r^2(h-h^2/h+h^3/(3h^2) - (0)) = π r^2(h - h + h/3) = π r^2(h/3) = π/3 r^2 h

volume of this cone is π/3(4^2)18 cubic inches.

= 6 16 π = 96π cubic inches.

cone has twice the volume, 96/48.

cone height is 6 times the cylinder.

ratio of volume formula: π r^2 cancels.

cone over cylinder ratio is 6h/3 to h, 2 to 1.
