Answer:

O C. 5.76 in2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a square, the formula is

length x width = area

length = 2.4

width = 2.4

2.4in x 2.4in = 5.76 in2

in2 is the part of the answer since in x in = in2

iren2701 [21]

Answer: $\bold{a)\quad 90\sqrt2\qquad \qquad b)\quad 45\sqrt2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are looking for the distance from home plate to second base, you are actually looking for the length of the diagonal of the square. Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² where a and b are the side lengths and c is the length of the diagonal.

$90^2+90^2=c^2\\8100+8100=c^2\\16200=c^2\\\sqrt{16200}=c\\\boxed{90\sqrt2}=c\qquad \qquad \text{which is approximately 127.28}\\\\\\\\\text{Halfway between home plate and 2nd base means divide that length by 2:}\\\\\dfrac{90\sqrt2}{2}=\boxed{45\sqrt2}$

Answer the question for a normal random variable x with mean μ and standard deviation σ specified below. (Round your answer to o

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

x = 63.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X and also the area to its left. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X, which is the area to its right.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 38, \sigma = 11$
