By using the definition of similarity between triangles and <em>algebraic</em> properties, the length of the segment AB of the system is equal to 4 units.

<h3>How to determine the length of the segment AB</h3>

In this problem we have two <em>similar</em> triangles and we need first to determine the lengths of segments AC and BC and then subtract the length of the latter from the length of the former, that is:

AC/BC = CE/CD

AC/2 = 15/5

AC = 6

AB = AC - BC

AB = 6 - 2

AB = 4

By using the definition of similarity between triangles and <em>algebraic</em> properties, the length of the segment AB of the system is equal to 4 units.

The temperature reading from a thermocouple placed in a constant-temperature medium is normally distributed with mean μ, the act

cluponka [151]

Answer: 0.3061.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The temperature reading from a thermocouple placed in a constant-temperature medium is normally distributed with mean $\mu$ , the actual temperature of the medium, and standard deviation $\sigma$ .

Let X be the random variable that represents the reading of the thermometer.

Confidence level : $=95\%$

We know that the z-value for 95% confidence interval is 1.96.

Then, we have

$-1.96$ $z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

$\Rightarrow\ -1.96\sigma$

But all readings are within 0.6° of $\mu$ .

So, $1.96\sigma=0.6$

$\Rightarrow\ \sigma=\dfrac{0.6}{1.96}=0.30612244898\approx0.3061$

Hence, the required standard deviation will be
