47.73% probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X lower than x is given by the following formula.

$P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}$

Uniformly distributed between 18.5 minutes and 40.5 minutes.

This means that a = 18.5, b = 40.5

What is the probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping

$P(X \leq 29) = \frac{29 - 18.5}{40.5 - 18.5} = 0.4773$

47.73% probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping

$y> \frac{1}{3}x$ and y≤ -x +4 .

step-by-step explanation:

we are given a graph for system of inequalities.

in order to write the system of inequalities for the given graph, we need to find the inequality for each of the line separately.

let us find the slope of dotted line first.

taking two coordinates on the graph.

let us say (0,0) and (3,1).

let us find the slope of the line now.

slope of the dotted line would be = $\frac{1-0}{3-0} = \frac{1}{3}$ .

y-intercept of dotted line is y=0 only.

plugging slope m= $\frac{1}{3}$ and b=0 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

$y=\frac{1}{3}x$ .

the line is shaded up of that dotted line.

therefore, for shading up we would take greater than inequality symbol > .

and because it's a dotted line we would take only > symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for dotted line would be

$y> \frac{1}{3}x$ .

let us take two points (3,1) and (0,4) on the solid line.

slope of the solid line would be = $\frac{4-1}{0-3} = \frac{3}{-3}=-1$ .

for the solid line we have y-intercept b= 4.

plugging slope m= -1 and b=4 in slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we get

y = -1x + 4.

the line is shaded down of that solid line.

therefore, for shading down we would take less than inequality symbol < .

and because it's a solid line we would take ≤ symbol in place of = sign in above equation of line.

therefore, inequality for solid line would be

y≤ -x +4 .
Write a system of inequalities to represent the shaded portion of the graph.
