Bryan cuts a piece of cardboard in the shape of a trapezoid.the area of the cutout is 43.5 square centimeters.if the bases are 6

Nimfa-mama [501]

<span>trapezoid area = ((sum of the bases) ÷ 2) • height
height = </span>trapezoid area / ((sum of the bases) ÷ 2)
height = 43.5 / ((6 + 8.5) / 2)
height = 43.5 / ((14.5) / 2)
height = 43.5 / (7.5)
height = 6 centimeters

If the weight (in grams) of cereal in a box of Lucky Charms is N(489,6), what is the probability that the box will contain less

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

0.000064 = 0.0064% probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

N(489,6)

This means that $\mu = 489, \sigma = 6$

What is the probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 466. So

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

$Z = \frac{466 - 489}{6}$

$Z = -3.83$

$Z = -3.83$ has a p-value of 0.000064

0.000064 = 0.0064% probability that the box will contain less than the advertised weight of 466 g.

For every 13 birds born at the zoo there are two animals born. There were 44 if you were animals born last month then birds so h

Daniel [21]

The ratio birds : animals = 13 : 2
so for every 1 animal, 6.5 birds were born

last month: animals = birds - 44
birds - animals = 44
use trial and improvement to find:
if there were 52 birds, there must be 8 animals
CHECK: 52 - 8 = 44

Please help me for my finals!! I'll do anything

oee [108]

(A)

Choice (B) is not the right answer because I

it's only 3rd order. But because f(x) goes to negative infinity when x goes to positive infinity means that the right answer is (A).

When is the absolute value of a difference equal to the difference of the absolute values?

marshall27 [118]

<span>ax(d) = absolute value of the difference = ax(a-b).
d(ax) = difference of the absolute value = ax(a) - ax(b).
ax(a-b) = absolute value of (a - b).
ax(a) - ax(b) = absolute value of (a) minus absolute value of (b).

Hope this works :)</span>
