Water use in the summer is normally distributed with a mean of 311.4 million gallons per day and a standard deviation of 40 mill

ion gallons per day. City reservoirs have a combined storage capacity of 350 million gallons. The probability that a day requires more water than is stored in city reservoirs is P(X > 350)= 1 - P (Z < b). What is the value of b? Please report your answer in 3 decimal places.

Answer: 0.965

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Water use in the summer is normally distributed with

\mu=311.4\text{ million gallons per day}

\sigma=40 \text{ million gallons per day}

Let X be the random variable that represents the quantity of water required on a particular day.

Z-score : \dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

\dfrac{350-311.4}{40}=0.965

Now, the probability that a day requires more water than is stored in city reservoirs is given by:-

P(x>350)=P(z>0.965)=1-P(z

We can see that on comparing the above value to the given P(X > 350)= 1 - P(Z < b) , we get the value of b is 0.965.

The answer is B. y = -1/5x +1/2.

EXPLANATION

First solve for the slope:
m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\ m = \frac{0 - \frac{3}{5} }{ \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{5} } \\ m = - \frac{1}{5}
After finding the slope, look for the linear equation with the same value of m (parallel equation).

Here is the question !
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Co-ordinates of F, G and H are:

F (-4, 5)

G (1, 10)

H (-9, 10)

You can find the lengths of sides by using the distance formula:

<em>length</em>(FG) = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2} + (y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}} = \sqrt{(1-(-4))^{2} + (10-5)^{2}} = 5\sqrt{2} units

Similarly,

<em>length</em>(GH) = 10 units

<em>length</em>(HF) = 5\sqrt{2} units

Hence, perimeter will be:

P = <em>length</em>(FG) + <em>length</em>(GH) + <em>length</em>(HF) = 10(\sqrt{2} + 1) units

The length of a rectangle is 13 ft. And its width is 49 ft. What is its perimeter? 512 ft 427 ft 79 ft 159 ft
crimeas [40]

Answer:

  = 124 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is

P = 2(l+w)

We know the length is 13 and the width is 49

P = 2(13+49)

   =2(62)

   = 124 ft
