How many people in a car? a study of rush-hour traffic in san francisco counts the number of people in each car entering a freeway at a suburban interchange. suppose that this count has mean 1.5 and standard deviation 0.75 in the population of all cars that enter at this interchange during rush hours. (a) could the exact distribution of the count be normal? why or why not? (b) traffic engineers estimate that the capacity of the interchange is 700 cars per hour. find the probability that 700 randomly selected cars at this freeway entrance will carry more than 1075 people. show your work. (hint: restate this event in terms of the mean number of people per car.)

step-by-step explanation:

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

the answer is: d) o, f, and kr.

atomic radius of bromine (br) is 114 pm.

atomic radius of oxygen (o) is 73 pm.

atomic radius of fluorine (f) is 72 pm.

atomic radius of krypron (kr) is 112 pm.

the atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atom.

the atomic radius varies with increasing atomic number, but usually increases because of increasing of number of electrons.

the atomic radius decreases across the periods because an increasing number of protons, because greater attraction between the protons and electrons.
