The probability that the plant manufactures a part between 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters 13%

<h3>How to find the probability that the part is between 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters</h3>

The probability is solved z scores, this measures the amount of standard deviation sample X is from mean. the formula is below

z = (X - μ) / σ

<u>Definition of variables</u>

mean, μ = 16.3 centimeters

standard deviation, σ = 2.5 centimeters

X = 10.8 and 12.8 centimeters

z score, z

substituting into the formula

for X = 12.8 centimeters

=  (X - μ) / σ

= (12.8 - 16.3) / 2.5

= -1.4

the p value for z of -1.4 = 0.161513

for X = 10.8 centimeters

=  (X - μ) / σ

= (10.8 - 16.3) / 2.5

= -2.2

the p value for z of -2.2 = 0.027807

the probability is calculated as below

0.161513 - 0.027807= 0.133706

= 0.13

=13%

Area of the living room is 180 square feet and the perimeter is 54 feet. What are the dimensions in feet?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer.....15ft by 12ft

Explanation:

Area = Length × Width

180 = LW....make W the subject of formula

;W = 180/L

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

54 = 2L + 2(180/L)...sub W with the formula above...

then simplify the equation and obtain...

2L^2 - 27L + 180 = 0....then solve using the quadratic formula....then obtain..

;L = 15ft....after obtaining L = 15...then substitute into the W = 180/L equation...

where W = 180/15 = 12ft

there you have...Length = 15ft and Width = 12ft
