X-y = 2
5x+3y =18

let do some plug and play

x-y = 2
x = 2+y
now we got an answer for x lets plug that in the other equation

5(2+y) + 3y = 18
10+5y + 3y = 18
10 + 8y = 18
8y = 8
y = 1

now lets find x
x = 2 +y

x = 2+ 1
x = 3.

Problem: a circle is inscribed in a square. The squares perimeter is 16 times the square root of 6. What is the probability of s

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

I got 21% at selecting a point outside.
Explanation: Since the perimeter is 16sqrt (6), each side must be 4sqrt (6)
This also means that the diameter is 4sqrt (6).

To find the area of a circle, we need to find the radius (2sqrt (6)).
Area of circle is pi × (2sqrt (6))^2 = 24pi or approximately 75.4 units^2
Area of square is 4sqrt (6)^2 = 96

Thus, let's take the area of the circle and subtract that from the area of our square to yield approx. 20.6 units^2
and now divide through by 96 to yield 21%

uysha [10]

Answer:

The 90th percentile for the distribution of the total contributions is $6,342,525.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
