Assume the population of human body temperatures has a mean of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit as is commonly believed. Assume the stand

ard deviation is .62 degrees Fahrenheit. Find the probability that the mean of a sample of 106 randomly selected humans is lower than 98.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Write your answer using a decimal. Be sure to use the appropriate rounding rules.

The probability that the mean of a sample of 106 randomly selected humans is lower than 98.5°F is 4.85%

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Z score is given as:

z = (raw score - mean) ÷ (standard deviation/√sample size)

Given mean of 98.6°F,  standard deviation is 0.62°F, sample size = 106

For x < 98.5:

z = (98.5 - 98.6) ÷ (0.62÷√106) = -1.66

P(z < -1.66) = 0.0485

The probability that the mean of a sample of 106 randomly selected humans is lower than 98.5°F is 4.85%

Stephen &amp; Richard share a lottery win of £2950 in the ratio 2 : 3. Stephen then shares his part between himself, his wife &a
horsena [70]

Answer:

Stephen's wife got £354 more than his son.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of Lottery = £2950

Now Given:

Stephen & Richard share a lottery amount in the ratio 2 : 3

Let the common factor between them be 'x'.

So we can say that;

2x+3x=2950\\\\5x = 2950

Dividing both side by 5 we get;

\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{2950}{5}\\\\x = 590

So we can say that;

Stephen share would be = 2x =2\times 590 = \£1180

Now Given:

Stephen then shares his part between himself, his wife & their son in the ratio 3 : 5 : 2.

Let the common factor between them be 'y'.

So we can say that;

3y+5y+2y=1180\\\\10y=1180

Dividing both side by 10 we get;

\frac{10y}{10}=\frac{1180}{10}\\\\y=118

So Stephen's wife share = 5y = 5\times 118= \£590

And Stephen's son share = 2y=2\times118 =\£236

Now we need to find how much more her wife got then her son.

To find how much more her wife got than her son we will subtract Stephen's son share from Stephen's wife share.

framing in equation form we get;

Amount more her wife got than her son = 590-236 = \£354

Hence Stephen's wife got £354 more than his son.

R = sec(θ) − 2cos(θ), where -π/2 &lt; θ &lt; π/2
Alex

Answer:

  y = (x/(1-x))√(1-x²)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be translated to rectangular coordinates by using the relationships between polar and rectangular coordinates:

  x = r·cos(θ)

  y = r·sin(θ)

  x² +y² = r²

__

  r = sec(θ) -2cos(θ)

  r·cos(θ) = 1 -2cos(θ)² . . . . . . . . multiply by cos(θ)

  r²·r·cos(θ) = r² -2r²·cos(θ)² . . . multiply by r²

  (x² +y²)x = x² +y² -2x² . . . . . . . substitute rectangular relations

  x²(x +1) = y²(1 -x) . . . . . . . . . . . subtract xy²-x², factor

  y² = x²(1 +x)/(1 -x) = x²(1 -x²)/(1 -x)² . . . . multiply by (1-x)/(1-x)

  \boxed{y=\dfrac{x\sqrt{1-x^2}}{1-x}}

__

The attached graph shows the equivalence of the polar and rectangular forms.

What percent of 3000 is 18??
77julia77 [94]
To solve this problem you have to set up a proportion. To form one side of the proportion you use "is over of" meaning what number represented by is, in this case 18, is placed over the number represented by of, 3000. \frac{18}{3000} Since you are finding the percent of something, youre x value is placed above "100" because percent values are most commonly out of 100%. \frac{x}{100} 
So now your proportion will look like \frac{18}{3000}\frac{x}{100} To solve the proportion you cross multiply and divide. So you multiply 100 and 18 since they are crossed from each other, then divide 1800 by 3000. The answer is .6. 18 is .6% of 3000.

On a fruit farm 1/3 of the trees are apple trees and 1/5 are lemon trees. The rest are fig trees. There are 90 trees in all.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

I'm not sure what the question was but I've worked out all the three types of trees

Step-by-step explanation:

⅓ + ⅕ = 8/15 because:

×5 ×3

5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15

therefore 7/15 is fig trees

90÷15 =6

6×5 = 30 apple trees

6×3 = 18 lemon trees

6×7 = 42 fig trees
