Answer:

P(45

And we can find this probability with the following difference:

P(-0.714

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-0.714

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the number of gallons of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(47.5,3.5)  

Where \mu=47.5 and \sigma=3.5

We are interested on this probability

P(45

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(45

And we can find this probability with the following difference:

P(-0.714

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-0.714

Option A:

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16

Solution:

Given data:

Center of the circle is (5, 3).

Radius of the circle = 4

To find the equation of the circle:

The general form of the equation of a circle in centre-radius format is

(x-h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}

where (h, k) is the centre of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Substitute the given values in the equation of a circle formula:

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=4^{2}

(x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16

The equation of the given circle is (x-5)^{2}+(y-3)^{2}=16.

Hence Option A is the correct answer.

Si consideramos que el planeta Tierra tiene forma esférica y un radio de 6 371 km, ¿cuál es el área total del planeta Tierra?
vovikov84 [41]

Respuesta:

5.101 × 10⁸ km²

Explicación:

Primer paso: Información provista

Radio del planeta Tierra (r): 6371 km

Paso 2: Calcular el área del planeta Tierra

Si suponemos que el planeta Tierra tiene forma esférica, podemos calcular su área (A) usando la siguiente fórmula.

A = 4 × π × r²

A = 4 × π × (6371 km)² = 5.101 × 10⁸ km²
