The 48 flies of them will live longer than 21 days if there are 300 houseflies in the study.

<h3>What is a normal distribution?</h3>

It's the probability curve of a continuous distribution that's most likely symmetric around the mean. On the Z curve, at Z=0, the chance is 50-50. A bell-shaped curve is another name for it.

We have mean u = 18 days

SD = 3 days

X = 21 days

From the formula:

Z = (X - u)/SD

Z = (21 - 18)/3 = 1

P(x<21) = 0.84134

P(x>21) = 1 - P(x<21) = 0.15866

Number of flies = 300×0.15866 = 47.59 ≈ 48 flies

Thus, the 48 flies of them will live longer than 21 days if there are 300 houseflies in the study.

(PLEASE HELP) Find the values of x and y
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

x = 90, y = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

By the SAS theorem (as you can tell by the picture) angles B and C are similar, which means they are both 47 degrees.

Since the triangles are similar (SAS theorem) then angle x must be equal to 90 degrees, because they are on a straight line both angles would need to add up to 180 degrees.

Now that you have two angles out of three, you can solve for the last angle by setting up this equation:

B + D + A = 180

47 + 90 + A = 180

Add 47 and 90 together.

137 + A = 180

Subtract 137 from both sides.

A = 43

x = D and y = A, therefore x = 90 and y = 43.

jennifer walks 8 miles in the same time she can jog 13 miles. if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed, how fa
Elanso [62]

Answer:

12.8mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'w' represent her walking speed

->if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed

Jogging speed=  w+8

Using the time equation i.e time = dist/speed

For walking when distance is 8miles

time = dist / speed= 8/w hrs

For jogging when distance is 13miles

time = dist / speed= 13/(w+8) hrs

Equating the time

jog time = walk time

13/(w+8) = 8/w

By cross multiplying it

13w = 8w + 64

5w = 64

w=64/5

w=12.8mph

Therefore, 12.8mph is her walking speed.
