Suppose that the breaking strength of a rope (in pounds) is normally distributed, with a mean of 100 pounds and a standard deviation of 17. What is the probability that a certain rope will break before being subjected to 130 pounds?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.961

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of 130 pounds:

Using the function normalcdf( on a TI calculator, we get:

normalcdf(-1000, 130, 100, 17) = 0.961

State if the triangles in each pair are similar. Remember a) AA/SAS/SSS
b) prove it. C) write a similarity statement.

Answers

Start at point A as that is the first letter of the sequence ABC. The second letter is B so we'll record the length of segment AB, which is 4 units long.
Note how we have a segment that is also 4 units long in the other triangle; however, we won't use that one just yet. Instead, we'll go for the 2 unit segment. As it turns out, every piece of the triangle on the right side is half that of the left side triangle.
Segment ED is 2 units long. So AB and ED pair up
------------------------------
BC is 8 units long; DF is 4 units long (half of BC). So BC and DF pair up
I started at A, went to B, then to C in that exact order marking the side lengths of 4 and 8 respectively. At the same time for the other triangle, I started at E, moved to D, then to F recording the side lengths 2 and 4
So A pairs up with E, B pairs with D, and C pairs with F
Therefore, triangle ABC is similar to triangle EDF. The order is very important so that the points line up and correspond in the proper manner.
I used the SSS (side side side) similarity theorem to prove the triangles similar. This theorem says that if the sides are in proportion to one another, then the triangles are similar.

Math help me please/////

Answers

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

A and D are incorrect because there is one outlier in the lower graph, and there are no signs of clusters on the graph, making B wrong as well. This leaves the only answer, C, which makes sense because there is a positive correlation of a line.

A biologist was sitting near a pond and noticed a large number of dragonflies. He also saw both frogs and fish trying to eat the
dragonflies. He counted a total of 89 fish, frogs, and dragonflies. He noticed that there were four times as many dragonflies as fish and
that the frogs were five more than twice the number of fish

Answers

89 /3

frogs = 29.6

fish =  29.6

dragonflies =  29.6

all of them equal 89

Guessing you need to know how many of each animal there are

a = fish = 12
b = frog = 29
c = dragonflies = 48

a + b + c = 89

c = 4a (four times as many dragonflies as fish)
b = 2a + 5 (frogs were five more than twice the number of fish)

Then substitute for b and c in the big equation:

a + (2a + 5) + 4a = 89
Combine like terms:
7a + 5 = 89
Subtract 5 from both sides:
7a = 84
Divide both sides by 7:
a = 12

Now use this to solve for b and c

c = 4(12) = 48

b = 2(12) + 5 = 24 + 5 = 29

A kind teacher gives you 20 cents for every question you get right, but you have to pay the

a ) Form an equation with x representing the number of questions you got right.
b )Solve your equation to find how many questions you got right.

Answers

Answer:

Let n be the number of questions you got right. Then

30-n equals the number of questions you got wrong.

So:

A) 20n-10(30-n)=180

30n-300=180

n=16

30-n=14

B)You got 16 questions right and 14 questions wrong.

5x - 2x = 9 + 6

3x = 15

From the top of a light house 60 meters high with its base at sea level, the angle of depression to a boat is 15o. What is the distance of the boat from the foot of the light house?

Answers

Answer:

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of light house = 60 meters

Angle of depression to boat = 15°

Find:

Distance between boat and light house

Computation:

Using trigonometry application:

Tanθ = Perpendicular / Base

Tan 15 = Height of light house / Distance between boat and light house

0.268 = 60 / Distance between boat and light house

Distance between boat and light house = 60 / 0.268

Distance between boat and light house = 223.88 meter (Approx.)

What is a sinusoidal Function?

It is a function that repeats itself in a particular time interval.

The equation is given as

y = A sin (ωx + Ф) + C

Where A is the amplitude, ω is the frequency, Ф is the phase difference, and C is the constant.

The function is given below.

f(x) = (5/4) sin(x) + 1

Compare the function with standard equation.

A = 5 / 4

ω = 1

Ф = 0

C = 1

Then the maximum value of the function at sin x = 1, will be

Maximum value = 5/4 + 1

Maximum value = 9/4

Then the minimum value of the function at sin x = –1, will be

Minimum value = –5/4 + 1

Minimum value = –1/4

In the interval of (0, π/2), the function is decreasing.

And the range of the function will be [–1/4, 9/4].

$100 are shared between Adam and Hamza in the ratio 1:3.
A)
How many dollars did Adam receive?
How many dollars did Hamza receive?

Answers

Answer:

$25 for Adam and $75 for Hamza

Step-by-step explanation:

$100 will be divided to 3 + 1 = 4 parts

the dollars Adam received

= $100 × 1/4

= $25

the dollars Hamza received

= $100 × 3/4

= $75

-----------------------------------------------------------

the dollars Hamza give to Adam

= $75 × 25%

= $75 × 25/100

= $18.75

the dollars Adam have

= $25 + $18.75

= $43.75

the dollars Hamza have

= $75 - $18.75

= $56.25

the ratio

= 43.75:56.25

= 7:9

Solve the system of equations 3x+2y=223x+2y=22 and -4x+3y=16−4x+3y=16 by combining the equations.

Answers

Answer:

(2, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation

3x+2y=22  ... *4

-4x+3y=16 .... *3

Using the elimination method

12x + 8y = 88

-12x + 9y = 48

Add

8y + 9y = 88+48

17y = 136

y = 136/17

y = 8

Recall that

3x+2y=22

3x+2(8)=22

3x + 16 = 22

3x = 22-16

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

Hence the required solution (x, y) is (2, 8)
