Answer: 72

We can use ratios

117 inches / 13 inches = 9

The corn cast shadow is 9 times bigger than the example we are given.

9 * 8 = <u><em>72</em></u>

Suppose the selling price of homes is skewed right with a mean of 350,000 and a standard deviation of 160000 If we record the se
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The distribution will be approximately normal, with mean 350,000 and standard deviation 25,298.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Population:

Suppose the selling price of homes is skewed right with a mean of 350,000 and a standard deviation of 160000

Sample of 40

Shape approximately normal

Mean 350000

Standard deviation s = \frac{160000}{\sqrt{40}} = 25298

The distribution will be approximately normal, with mean 350,000 and standard deviation 25,298.

A jet plane can carry up to 200,000 liters of fuel. It used 130,000 liters of fuel during a flight. What percentage of the fuel
-Dominant- [34]

Given:

Capacity of jet plane = 200,000 liters of fuel

Fuel used during flight = 130,000 liters

To find:

The percentage of the fuel capacity it uses on this flight.

Solution:

According to the question, we need to find 130,000 is what percent of 200,000.

\text{Required percentage}=\dfrac{\text{Fuel used during flight}}{\text{Capacity of jet plane}}\times 100

\text{Required percentage}=\dfrac{130000}{200000}\times 100

\text{Required percentage}=65

Therefore, the jet plane uses 65 percent of fuel capacity during flight.
