When you have 2 negatives, it eaquals a positive so you can just take off both of the negatives and multiply 5 and 8, ,or, (-5)(-8)

The diameter of a circle is 10 m. Find its area to the nearest tenth.

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

78.54 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of the circle is shown below:

As we know that

Area of the circle = πr^2

Also

Diameter = 2r

10 = 2r

r = 5

So, the area of the circle is

= 3.14 × 5^2

= 78.54 m^2

Answer:

0% probability cab tires depths would be shallower than 0.25cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 2.2, \sigma = 0.33$
