CNBC recently reported that the mean annual cost of auto insurance is 1013 dollars. Assume the standard deviation is 284 dollars. You take a simple random sample of 56 auto insurance policies. Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is less than 995 dollars. P(X < 995)

P(X < 995) = 0.4761

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

CNBC recently reported that the mean annual cost of auto insurance is 1013 dollars. Assume the standard deviation is 284 dollars.

This means that $\mu = 1013, \sigma = 284$

Find the probability that a single randomly selected value is less than 995 dollars.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 995. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{995 - 1013}{284}$

Z = -0.06

Z = -0.06 has a p-value of 0.4761. So

P(X < 995) = 0.4761

Intersecting secant-tangent theorem states that if a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.so to break it down: 1. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p.sr = 21rp = 3x + 3pq = 4x + 4following to equation: tangent squared = the two segments multiplied by each otherso (4x + 4) ^ 2 = (3x + 3) • (21) simplifies to 16x^2 - 31x - 47 = 0 or (16x - 47)(x + 1) x = -1 or x = 47/162. pq acts as the tangent and ps as the secant with an intersection at p (again! )sr = 16rp = xpq = 15(15) ^ 2 = 16 • x225 = 16xx = 225/163. the interesting chords are proportional to each other so a ratio is possible to set up: ap dp 10 3 + x = = —— = pc pb 8 xcross multiple to get 10x = (3 + x)(8)x = 12

step-by-step explanation:

descending order means to order the polynomials from the term with the largest exponent to the term with the smallest exponent.

therefore, the correct answer is d.
