Each month, an American household generates an average of 28 pounds of newspaper for garbage or recycling. Assume the standard d

eviation is 2 pounds. Assume the variable is approximately normally distributed. If a household is selected at random, find the probability of its generating:
1) Between 27 and 31 pounds per month.

2) More than 30.2 pounds per month.

a) For x = 27:

z = 27-28/2 = -0.5

For x = 31:

z = 31-38/2 = 1.5

From the normal distribution table, P(27 < x < 31) = P(-0.5 < z < 1.5) = P(z < 1.5) - P(z < -0.5) = 0.9332 - 0.3085 = 62.47%

b)  For x > 30.2:

z = 30.2-28/2 = 1.1

From the normal distribution table, P(x > 30.2) = P(z > 1.1) = 1 - P(z > 1.1) = 1 - 0.8643 = 13.57%

I need help with these please... anyone?

The total measure of the interior angles of each figure will be:

180 (n-2) = 180 (4 - 2) = 360

Now add all those angles and set them equal to 360.

41 + 133 + 86 + x = 360

x is the unknown angle.

260 + x = 360
x = 100

The missing angle that is Not labeled in any of the figure is 100°

Hope this helps :)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

The nearest tenth of how fast a rover will hit Mars' surface after a bounce of 15 ft in height is 20.7ft/s.

<h3>What is the approximation about?</h3>

From the question:

Mars: F(x) = 2/3\sqrt{64x}

Therefore, If x = 15

Then:

f (15) =  2/3 \sqrt[8]{15}

= 16/3\sqrt{15}

= 20.7ft/s

Hence, The nearest tenth of how fast a rover will hit Mars' surface after a bounce of 15 ft in height is 20.7ft/s.
