The value of seaweed height that divides the bottom 30%  from the top 70% is 8.96 cm

<h3>What is standard deviation?</h3>

An indicator of how much a group of numbers vary or are dispersed is the standard deviation. When the standard deviation is low, the values tend to fall within a narrow range of the set's mean, but when it is large, the values tend to deviate from that mean more.

<h3>What is sampling distribution?</h3>

Mean. The population from which the scores were sampled is represented by the mean of the sampling distribution of the mean. As a result, the sampling distribution's mean is also the population's mean if the population as a whole has a mean of.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

The height of  the seaweed be : x

X~N(μ;σ²)

μ= 10 cm

σ= 2 cm

the value of the variable X at which the distribution's bottom 0.30 and top 0.70 are separated.

P(X≤x)= 0.30

P(X≥x)= 0.70

The Z value that divides the bottom 0.30 from the top 0.70 of the standard normal distribution must be identified. Using the formula

Z=(X-μ)/σ, the Z value must then be converted to the matching X value.

P(Z≤z)= 0.30

Search for the probability of 0.30 in the table's body to get to the margins where the Z value is formed. Since the distribution's mean is "0," negative values can be found in the lower half of the distribution.

z= -0.52

The value of X must now be cleared:

Z= (X-μ)/σ

Z*σ= X-μ

X= (Z*σ)+μ

X= (-0.52*2)+10= 8.96

The value of seaweed height that divides the bottom 30%  from the top 70% is 8.96 cm.

I understand that the question you are looking for is:

The height of seaweed of all plants in a body of water are normally distributed with a mean of 10 cm and a standard deviation of 2 cm. Which length separates the lowest 30% of the means of the plant heights in a sampling distribution of sample size 15 from the highest 70%? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

How to find the hypotenuse of a right angled triangle using trigonometry?
Ghella [55]
It depends on whether you have "Perpendicular" or "base"
If you have perpendicular then, you can use the formula:
sin Ф = P / H

If you have base then, you can use the formula:
cos Ф = B/ H

Answer:

x and y can have many values

Step-by-step explanation:

-24x - 12y = -16

Then: 24x + 12y = 16

We know: 6x + 3y = 4

X and Y can have a lot of valoues.

6x + 3y = 4

3 ( 2x + y) = 4

2x + y= 4/3

2x+y= 1.333...

Answer:

  x = 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°.

  (2x +8) +(2x +4) = 180

  4x +12 = 180 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  x +3 = 45 . . . . . . . divide by 4 (because we can)

  x = 42 . . . . . . subtract 3

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "two-step" linear equation like this one is usually solved by subtracting the unwanted constant, then dividing by the coefficient of the variable. Here, we have done those steps in reverse order. This makes the numbers smaller and  eliminates the coefficient of the variable. Sometimes I find it easier to solve the equation this way.

Let f(x)=x^3-x-1
alexira [117]
f(x) = x^3 - x - 1

To find the gradient of the tangent, we must first differentiate the function.

f'(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(x^3 - x - 1) = 3x^2 - 1

The gradient at x = 0 is given by evaluating f'(0).

f'(0) = 3(0)^2 - 1 = -1

The derivative of the function at this point is negative, which tells us <em>the function is decreasing at that point</em>.

The tangent to the line is a straight line, so we will have a linear equation of the form y = mx + c. We know the gradient, m, is equal to -1, so

y = -x + c

Now we need to substitute a point on the tangent into this equation to find c. We know a point when x = 0 lies on here. To find the y-coordinate of this point we need to evaluate f(0).

f(0) = (0)^3 - (0) - 1 = -1

So the point (0, -1) lies on the tangent. Substituting into the tangent equation:

y = -x + c \\\\ -1 = -(0) + c \\\\ -1 = c \\\\ \text{Equation of tangent is } \boxed{y = -x - 1}
