Answer:
0.81859
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve using z score method
The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,
where
x is the raw score
μ is the population mean
σ is the population standard deviation.
Mean 0.8 pound
Standard deviation 0.25 pound
For x = 0.55 pound
z = 0.55 - 0.8/0.25
= -1
Probability -value from Z-Table:
P(x = 0.55) = 0.15866
For x = 1.3 pounds
Z = 1.3 = 0.8/0.25
= 2
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 1.3) = 0.97725
The probability that a randomly selected zucchini will weigh between 0.55 pound and 1.3 pounds is
P(x = 1.3) - P(x = 0.8)
0.97725 - 0.15866
0.81859.
Answer: 10, 11, & 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the age of the youngest child.
Their ages are consecutive so,
Youngest: x
Middle: x + 1
Oldest: x + 2
The age of the Youngest squared (x²) equals 8 times the Oldest [8(x + 2)] plus 4.
x² = 8(x + 2) + 4
x² = 8x + 16 + 4
x² = 8x + 20
x² - 8x - 20 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0
x - 10 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
x = 10 or x = -2
Since age cannot be negative, x = -2 is not valid
So, the Youngest (x) is 10
the Middle (x + 1) is 11
and the Oldest (x + 2) is 12

Answer:
The square cake is has a larger area by about 40.73 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the top of each cake.
The square cake has an area of 81 sq inches, ( length x width = Area, the
length is 9)
The round cake has an area of 16π, which is about 50.27 square inches
(A = πr², here r is 4, radius is half the diameter)
81 - 16π = 81 - 50.27 = 40.73 square inches
Speed=distance/time
suppose the distance of the first day is d, and the time is t
distance of the second day: d+0.17d=1.17d
time of the second day: t+0.2t=1.2t
speed of the second day: 1.17d/1.2t=0.975(d/t)=(1-0.025)(d/t)
so the speed of the second day is 2.5% slower than the first day.
