P(490 < X < 560)= 0.3133

Given: μ = 560

σ = 90  

To find: P (490 < X < 560)

Normal distributions are symmetric, unimodal, and asymptotic. A normal distribution is determined by two parameters the mean and the variance. A normal distribution with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1 is called a standard normal distribution. It's always easy to solve questions in terms to standard normal

Hence, converting normal distribution to standard normal gives:

P(490 < X < 560)  = P(\frac{560-560}{90}≤ \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{640-560}{90})

                              = P(0 ≤ Z < 0.888)

                               = P (z<0.89) - P(z  ≤ 0)

Using standard normal table,

= 0.8133 - 0.5

P(490 < X < 560) = 0.3133

The perimeter of a rectangle is 46 cm,<br> The length is 13 cm. What is the width?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the perimeter of a rectangle= 2(l+w)

given that the perimeter is 46 cm and length is 13 cm, so by putting the values we get,

2(13+w)=46

= 26+2w=46 (opening the brackets)

= 2w= 46-26

= 2w=20

= w=20/2

w= 10 cm

Cheers.
