The interval of systolic blood pressure lie between 102 and 118.

<h3>What is systolic blood pressure?</h3><h3>Blood pressure is measured using two numbers: The first number, called systolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats. The second number, called diastolic blood pressure, measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart rests between beats.</h3>

Here, mean blood pressure is 110

and standard deviation is 8

By z table, for 68%,

-1 < z < 1

-1 < (x - μ) / σ < 1

on multiply by σ, we get

-σ < x-μ < σ

on adding μ, we get

-σ + μ < x < σ + μ

-8 + 110 < x < 110 + 8

102 < x < 118

Thus, the interval of systolic blood pressure lie between 102 and 118.

The length of a rectangle is 8 feet more than its width. If the width is increased by 4 feet and the length is decreased by 5 fe
alexgriva [62]
Let the width be x.

Length is 8 feet more than width. Length = x + 8

Area = x(x + 8)

width increased by 4, that is,  (x + 4)
Length decreased by 5,    (x + 8 - 5) = (x + 3)

Area  = (x + 4)(x +3)

Area remains the same

x(x + 8) = (x+4)(x +3)

x² + 8x =   x(x +3) + 4(x +3)

 x² + 8x =   x² +3x + 4x +12

x² + 8x =   x² +7x +12        Eliminate x² from both sides

8x = 7x + 12

8x - 7x = 12

x = 12

Dimensions of original rectangle :  x,  x + 8

12, 12 +8 =   12, 20

Original rectangle is   20 feet   by 12 feet

What is the volume of a cone with a radius of 2 and a height of 19?
kykrilka [37]

Remember that the cone volume formula is V=\pi r^2\frac{h}{3} , with r = radius and h = height. Using our information, we can form our equation as such: V=\pi 2^2\frac{19}{3} (I'll be keeping the answer in pi form.)

Firstly, solve the exponents:V=\pi 4\frac{19}{3}

Next, multiply 4 and 19/3 together and your answer should be (rounded to the hundreths): V = 25.33π un^3
