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%

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

m∠EGC=70°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The measure of the inner angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite

so

m∠EGC=(1/2)[arc EC+arc DF]

<u><em>Find the value of x</em></u>

we have

m∠EGC=(7x+7)°

arc EC=50°

arc DF=10x°

substitute and solve for x

(7x+7)°=(1/2)[50°+10x°]

14x+14=50+10x

14x-10x=50-14

4x=36

x=9

<u><em>Find the measure of angle EGC</em></u>

m∠EGC=(7x+7)°

substitute the value of x

m∠EGC=(7(9)+7)°=70°

The length of a rectangle is 2x – 3 feet, and the width is 5 feet. What is the area of the rectangle in square feet?
dimaraw [331]
The area of a rectangle is length times width or base times height

so 5 times 2x-3

if you multiply them together 5(2x-3) you would get 10x-15

there is no value of x

so the area would be 10x-15ft^2

The radius of a cylindrical water tank is 5.5ft, and its height is 13ft. What is the volume of the tank?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The volume of the tank is 1235ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the volume of a cylinder we have to use the following formula:

v = volume

h = height = 13ft

π = 3.14

r = radius = 5.5ft

v = (π * r²) * h

we replace the unknowns with the values we know

v = (3.14 * (5.5ft)²) * 13ft

v = (3.14 * 30.25ft²) * 13ft

v = 94.985ft² * 13ft

v = 1234.805ft³

Round to the nearest whole number

v = 1234.805ft³ = v = 1235ft³

What is the nth term of 5,11,17,23
rewona [7]

Answer:

6n - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence.

a1 = 5, d = 6.

nth term = a1 + d(n - 1)

= 5 + 6(n - 1)

= 5 + 6n - 6

= 6n - 1.
