If it doubles in size, Once its half it will be full the next day, so I believe 39 days.

We have the following expression:

2x^2y\cdot3x^5y^2

By combining similar terms, we get

2\cdot3\cdot x^2\cdot x^5\cdot y\cdot y^2

now, 2 times 3 is 6 and to add exponents, both the exponents and variables should be alike:

x^2\cdot x^5=x^{2+5}=x^7

Similarly,

y\cdot y^2=y^{1+2}=y^3

Therefore, the answer is

6x^7y^3

Based on the model ​N(11541154​,8686​) describing steer​ weights, what are the cutoff values for ​a) the highest​ 10% of the​ we
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a) x = 1225.68

b) x = 1081.76

c)  1109.28 < x < 1198.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Th random variable X for steer weight follows a normal distribution:

                                    X~ N( 1154 , 86 )

Find:

a) the highest​ 10% of the​ weights? ​

b) the lowest​ 20% of the​ weights? ​

c) the middle​ 40% of the​ weights? ​

Solution:

a)

We will compute the corresponding Z-value for highest cut off 10%:

                                   Z @ 0.10 = 1.28

                                    Z = (x-u) / sd

Where,

u: Mean of the distribution.

s.d: Standard deviation of the distribution.

                                   1.28 = (x - 1154) / 86

                                      x = 1.28*86 + 1154

                                      x = 1225.68

b)

We will compute the corresponding Z-value for lowest cut off 20%:

                                   -Z @ 0.20 = -0.84

                                    Z = (x-u) / sd

                                   -0.84 = (x - 1154) / 86

                                      x = -0.84*86 + 1154

                                      x = 1081.76

c)

We will compute the corresponding Z-value for middle cut off 40%:

                                    Z @ 0.3 = -0.52

                                    Z @ 0.7 = 0.52

                                    [email protected] < x < [email protected]

                       -.52*86 + 1154 < x < 0.52*86 + 1154

                                  1109.28 < x < 1198.72
