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%

The length of a rectangle is 6 units and its width is 4 units. What is the approximate length of the diagonal of the rectangle?
ss7ja [257]
The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 7.2 units" .
_______________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Use the Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c² ;

in which:  "6 units" and "4 units" equal the lengths of the right angle (formed by the rectangle);  and "c" is the length of the diagonal of the rectangle, or the "hypotenuse", of the right triangle formed by the rectangle;  We wish to solve for "c" ;
_______________________________________________

6² + 4² = c² ;  Solve for "c" ;

↔ c² = 6² + 4² ; 

         = (6*6) + (4*4) ;
 
         = 36 + 16 ;

        =  52 ;

    c² = 52 ;

Take the "positive square root" of each side of the equation; to isolate "c" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "c" ; 

  √(c²)  =  √52 ; 

    c = √52 ;  

At this point, we know the 7² = 49 ;  8² = 64 ;  so, the answer is somewhere between "7" and "8" ; yet closer to "7" ;  so among the answer choices given; 

The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 7.2 units" .
_________________________________________
However, let use a calculator:

c = √52 = 7.2111025509279786 ; which rounds to "7.2" ;
   which corresponds to:

Answer choice:  [C]:  " 7.2 units" .
