Your body mass index (BMI) is your weight in kilograms divided by the square of your height in meters. Many online BMI calculators allow you to enter weight in pounds and height in inches. High BMI is a common but controversial indicator of overweight or obesity. A study by the National Center for Health Statistics found that the BMI of American young men (ages 20 to 29) is approximately normal with mean 26.8 and standard deviation 5.2. People with BMI less than 18.5 are often classed as "underweight." What percent of young women are underweight by this criterion? Sketch and shade the area of interest under a Normal curve.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5.5227%

Step-by-step explanation:

Z score formula = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score = < 18.5

μ is the population mean = 26.8

σ is the population standard deviation = 5.2

For x < 18.5

z = 18.5 - 26.8/5.2

z = -1.59615

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<18.5) = 0.055227

Converting to percentage

= 0.055227 × 100

= 5.5227%

Therefore, the percentage of young women that are underweight by this criterion is 5.5227%

One evening Papa John’s sold a total of 33 pizzas topped with pepperoni, sausage, or pepperoni and sausage. There were 29 pizzas that had pepperoni. Of these, 15 also had sausage. How many more pizzas had pepperoni only than had sausage only?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

So he sold 33.

29 had pepperoni and of these 29, 15 had also sausage. SO first, to find out how many pepperoni pizzas only he sold you have to substract.

29-15= 14

14pepperoni pizzas

15 pepperoni and sausage pizzas.

Now we add 14 + 15 = 29

Now we do 33-29= 4

So the final answer to the question is:

10 pizzas more

What is the correct formula to find the sum of the finite geometric series below?

[tex]\displaystyle 2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{9} + \ ... \ + \frac{2}{3^6}[/tex]

Answers

We are given the Geometric Series:

[tex]2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{9} + \frac{2}{27} + \frac{2}{81} + \frac{2}{243} + \frac{2}{729}[/tex]

which can be rewritten as:

[tex]2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{3^{2} } + \frac{2}{3^{3}} + \frac{2}{3^{4}} + \frac{2}{3^{5}} + \frac{2}{3^{6}}[/tex]

here, we can see that every term is (1/3) times the last term

Hence, we can say that the common ratio of this Geometric Series is 1/3

Finding the Sum:

We know that the sum of a Geometric Series is:

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{a(r^{n}-1)}{r-1}[/tex]

(where r is the common ratio, a is the first term, and n is the number of terms)

another look at the given Geometric Series tells us that the first term is 2 and the number of terms is 7

plugging these values in the formula, we get:

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{2((1/3)^{7}-1)}{(1/3)-1}[/tex]

[tex]S_{n} = \frac{-1.99}{-0.67}[/tex]

Sₙ = 2.97

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \tt2 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{2}{ {3}^{2} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{3} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{4} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{5} } + \frac{2}{ {3}^{6} } [/tex]

r = [tex]\tt{a_2 \div a_1}[/tex]

r = [tex]\tt{\frac{2}{3} \div 2}[/tex]

r = [tex]\tt{\bold{\frac{1}{3}}}[/tex]

Soo :

[tex] \sf s_n = \frac{a( {r}^{n} - 1) }{r - 1} [/tex]

[tex] \sf s_7 = \frac{2(( \frac{1}{3} ) {}^{7 - 1} - 1) }{( \frac{1}{3} - 1) } [/tex]

[tex] \sf s_7 \approx \bold{ \underline{2.97}}[/tex]

find the measure of the angle theta

Answers

Answer:

A. 57.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = θ

Length of hypotenuse = 15

Length of adjacent side = 8

Recall, SOHCAHTOA.

Thus, apply CAH to find θ.

Cos θ = Adj/Hyp

Cos θ = 8/15

θ = Cos^{-1}(8/15)

θ = 57.7690474° = 57.8°

Answers

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

One nice, reliable thing about triangles is that their interior angles will ALWAYS add up to 180 degrees.  So, if one angle is 43 degrees and the other angle is 48 degrees, we can see that

180 - 43 - 48 = 89

Now, the tricky part: how to determine which type of triangle this is.

An acute triangle is one in which all interior angles are less than 90 degrees.  An isoceles triangle is one in which two of the interior angles are the same, while the third is different.  An obtuse triangle is one in which one of the interior angles is greater than 90 degrees.  A right triangle is one in which one of the interior angles is equal to 90 degrees.

We distinguish between these different types because they each have useful, but different, properties.

By these definitions, it is clear that the triangle in question is acute.

b. M AUV + m DUA = 180
c. m MUC - m MUD = mzCUD
d. m PUD + m VUP = m PUM + m_CUA​

Answers

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's examine each statement:

Option A: m<CUD = m<VUM (CORRECT)

Rationale: vertical angles are congruent to each other.

Option B: m<AUV + m<DUA = 180 (CORRECT)

Rationale: angles on a straight line

Option C: m<MUC - m<MUD = m<CUD (CORRECT)

Rationale:

m<MUC = m<MUD + m<CUD

Subtract m<MUD from each side

m<MUC - m<MUD = m<CUD

Option D is FALSE

Rationale:

m<PUD + m <VUP = 180° (angles on a straight line)

m<PUM + m<CUA ≠ 180°

Therefore,

m<PUD + m<VUP = m<PUM + m<CUA IS FALSE.

Find the area of irregular shapes

Answers

So far, we have found area for rectangles, triangles, trapezoids, and circles. An irregular figure is a figure that is not a standard geometric shape. Its area cannot be calculated using any of the standard area formulas. But some irregular figures are made up of two or more standard geometric shapes. To find the area of one of these irregular figures, we can split it into figures whose formulas we know and then add the areas of the figures.

Describe the relationship between the area of a circle and its circumstances

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A = \frac{r}{2}C[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Circle

Required

The area and the circumference (relationship)

This implies that, we write an expression that relates the area and the circumference.

Circumference is calculated as:

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

Area is calculated as:

[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

The area can be rewritten as:

[tex]A = \frac{2\pi r^2}{2}[/tex]

Further rewrite as:

[tex]A = \frac{r}{2}*2\pi r[/tex]

Recall that:[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

So, the expression becomes

[tex]A = \frac{r}{2}*C[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{r}{2}C[/tex]

The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.14 mm. If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 12 spindles to determine whether the mean diameter has moved away from the required measurement. Suppose the sample has an average diameter of 5.88 mm. What are the null and alternative hypotheses (H0 = null hypothesis and Ha = alternative hypothesis)?
A. H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.
B. H0: Mean = 5 and Ha: Mean <5.
C. H0: Mean < 5 and Ha: Mean > 5.
D. H0: Mean = 5 and Ha: Mean > 5.

Answers

Answer: A. H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Definitions:

Null hypothesis [tex](H_0)[/tex] is a statement describing population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes "≤,≥,=" signs.   Alternative hypothesis[tex](H_a)[/tex]  is a statement opposite to the null hypothesis elaborating population parameters according to the objective of the study. It takes ">, <, ≠" signs.

Given: The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 5.8 millimeters.

If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. so, Mean diameter ≠ 5.8 to work correctly.

i.e. [tex]H_a: \text{Mean}\neq 5.8[/tex]

So, [tex]H_a: \text{Mean =5.8}[/tex]

The required null and alternative hypotheses:

H0: Mean= 5 and Ha: Mean is not equal to 5.
