Answer:

Third quartile (Q₃) = 46.75 minutes.

Therefore, Option (c) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean  (μ) = 40 minutes and S.D (σ) = 10 minutes

To find : Third quartile (Q₃) = ?

Sol: As the third quartile of normal distribution covers the 75% of the total area of the curve and first quartile covers the 25% of the total area of the curve. Then with the help of z score table, the value represented the third quartile of the normal distribution is:

Q₃ = μ + 0.675 σ

Now by substitution the value of mean and standard deviation,

Q₃ = 40 + 0.675 × (10)

Q₃ = 40 + 6.75

Q₃ = 46.75

Therefore, the third quartile (Q₃) = 46.75. So, option (c) is the correct answer.

On a coordinate plane, kite W X Y Z is shown. Point W is at (negative 3, 3), point X is at (2, 3), point Y is at (4, negative 4)
Aloiza [94]

The perimeter of the kite is (10 + 2√53) units if the kite and the coordinates of the kite are point W is at (-3, 3), point X is at (2, 3), point Y is at (4, -4), and point Z is at (-3, -2).

<h3>What is quadrilateral?</h3>

It is defined as the four-sided polygon in geometry having four edges and four corners. Kite is quadrilateral, in which. Two pairs of congruent sides, and it has one pair of opposite congruent angles.

The figure is missing.

On a coordinate plane, kite WXYZ is shown (please refer to the picture)

We have a kite and the coordinates of the kite are:

Point W is at (-3, 3), point X is at (2, 3), point Y is at (4, -4), and point Z is at (-3, -2).

Using the distance formula we can find the distance between coordinates:

\rm d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Distance between W and X:

\rm WX=\sqrt{(2+3)^2+(3-3)^2}

WX = 5 units

Similarly, distance between X and Y:

XY = √53 units

YZ = √53 units

ZW = 5 units

Perimeter = sum of the all sides

Perimeter = 5 + √53 + √53 + 5

Perimeter = (10 + 2√53)  units

Thus, the perimeter of the kite is (10 + 2√53) units if the kite and the coordinates of the kite are point W is at (-3, 3), point X is at (2, 3), point Y is at (4, -4), and point Z is at (-3, -2).

A middle school band has 45 sixth and seventh graders The ratio of sixth to seventh graders is 2 to 3 how many sixth graders are
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

  18

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2+3 = 5 ratio units representing 45 band members, so each ratio unit represents 45/5 = 9 band members.

The 2 ratio units of sixth graders represent 2×9 = 18 sixth grade band members.

To make 4.5 cups of fruity granola, the recipe calls for 1.5 cups of raisins, 1 cup of granola, and 2 cups of blueberries. If yo
Levart [38]

Answer:

you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Find how much raisins are needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1.5 cups of raisins</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of raisins</em>

4.5 : 1.5

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 1.5 x 18

y = 27/4.5

y = 6 cups of raisins

<u>Step 2: Find how much granola is needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1 cup of granola</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of granola</em>

4.5 : 1

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 18

y = 4 cups of granola

<u>Step 3: Find how much blueberries are needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 2 cups of raisins</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of blueberries</em>

4.5 : 2

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 2 x 18

y = 36/4.5

y = 8 cups of blueberries

Therefore, in order to make 18 cups of fruity granola, you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.
