This seems like a right triangle problem.
So assuming 14 feet is the hypotenuse and 4 feet is a leg of the right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem () to solve for the height of the house, in which we shall name it x.
So, the equation is .
Solve for x:
16+x^{2}= 196
x^{2}= 196-16
x^{2}= 180
x = 6√5 feet
Hope this helps!
Answer:
84.13% of bottles will have volume greater than 994 mL
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean volume = u = 1000
Standard deviation = = 6
We need to find the proportion of bottles with volume greater than 994. So our test value is 994. i.e.
x = 994
Since the data is normally distributed we will use the concept of z-score to find the required proportion. First we convert 994 to its equivalent z-score, then using the z-table we will find the corresponding value of proportion. The formula to calculate the z score is:
Substituting the values, we get:
This means 994 is equivalent to a z score of -1. Now we will find the proportion of z values which are greater than -1 from the z table.
i.e. P(z > -1)
From the z-table this value comes out to be:
P(z >- 1) = 1 - P(z < -1) = 1 - 0.1587 = 0.8413
Since, 994 is equivalent to a z score of -1, we can write that proportion of values which will be greater than 994 would be:
P( X > 994 ) = P( z > -1 ) = 0.8413 = 84.13%
