Answer:

The proportion of temperatures that lie within the given limits are 10.24%

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Let X be a random variable that denotes the average city temperatures in the month of August.

- The random variable X is normally distributed with parameters:

                           mean ( u ) = 21.25

                           standard deviation ( σ ) = 2

- Express the distribution of X:

                           X ~ Norm ( u , σ^2 )

                           X ~ Norm ( 21.25 , 2^2 )

- We are to evaluate the proportion of set of temperatures in the month of august that lies between 23.71 degrees Celsius and 26.17 degrees Celsius :

                           P ( 23.71 < X < 26.17 )

- We will standardize our limits i.e compute the Z-score values:

                          P (  (x1 - u) / σ < Z < (x2 - u) / σ )

                          P (  (23.71 - 21.25) / 2 < Z < (26.17 - 21.25) / 2  )

                          P ( 1.23 < Z < 2.46 ).

- Now use the standard normal distribution tables:

                          P ( 1.23 < Z < 2.46 ) = 0.1024

- The proportion of temperatures that lie within the given limits are 10.24%

Solve and show how you did 5 (x-1) + 3 = 13
Goryan [66]
5(x-1) + 3 = 13
5x - 5 + 3 = 13
5x -2 = 13
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3

Divide 33 photos into two groups so the ratio is 4 to 7
Artist 52 [7]
33 photos in a 4x to 7x ratio

4x + 7x = 33
11x = 33
x = 3

33 photos can be put in a 4(3) to 7(3) ratio

which is a 12 to 21 ratio

so 12 photos on one side, and 21 on the other side to get the ratio of 4 to 7

Note:
<span>a(b) = ab = a x b = a times b</span>

Nick walked 1 mile in nine minutes there are 5280 feet in a mile about how many feet did he walk a minute
Elodia [21]
Hello!

All you have to do it divide 5280 ft by 9 min  to find ft/min:

5280 / 9 = 506.67 ft/min

I hope this helps :))
