Using proportions, the value of x that makes the triangle similar is of x = 14.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, we want the triangles to be similar, hence the lengths of it's sides follow the proportion given next:

\frac{6}{12} = \frac{7}{x}

Applying cross multiplication:

6x = 12 x 7

x = 2 x 7

x = 14.

The value of x that makes the triangle similar is of x = 14.

A normal distribution has a mean of μ = 100 with LaTeX: \sigmaσ = 20. If one score is randomly selected from this distribution,
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

P(100

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(0

And in order to find these probabilities we can using tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(0

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(100,20)  

Where \mu=100 and \sigma=20

We are interested on this probability

P(100

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(100

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(0

And in order to find these probabilities we can using tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(0

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.125.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anne has 8 unmarked computer disks in a​ box, namely one of English​, Spanish​, Mathematics, computer science, biology​, SAT preparation, college applications, and American history.

Let the experiment be to pick up the SAT preparation disk from this set of 8 disk

Possible outcome is only one as there is only one SAT preparation disk.

Total number of outcomes, i.e. total number of disks available is 8.

Probability of picking of SAT preparation disk is

Probability = \frac{possible outcomes}{All outcomes} =  \frac{1}{8}.

Michael is putting 12 boxes in a storage shed. Each box is in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimensions 1.5 feet by 1.5 f
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Volume of room will be left after Michael stores the boxes 426 feet cube

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that

Michael is putting 12 boxes in a storage shed.

Each box is in the shape of a rectangular prism with dimensions 1.5 feet by 1.5 feet by 2 feet.  

If the storage shed has dimensions 6 feet by 10 feet by 8 feet,

<u>To find the volume of one box </u>

Volume = 1.5 x 1.5 x 2= 4.5 feet cube

Volume of 12 such box = 4.5 x 12 =54 feet cube

<u>To find the volume of shed </u>

Volume of Shed = 6 x 10 x 8 =480

<u> To find remaining portion of shed</u>

Volume of room will be left after Michael stores the boxes      =volume of shed - volume of box

 =480 - 54 = 426 feet cube
