Which of the following cannot be the side lengths of a triangle?

1 answer:

4 0

To actually form a triangle, the two SMALLEST sides, have to be bigger than the BIGGEST number, when added together.

A.) Can be a triangle
B.)Can be a triangle
C.)Can be a triangle
D.)Can't be a triangle

2+10=12, and 12 is not bigger than 20.

Thus, D, is your answer.

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For x = 2, w(x) = 3, t(x) = - 1

w(x) + t(x) = 3 + (-1) = 3 - 1 = 2

Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84" is $\\ P(z$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have:

The random variable is normally distributed according to a standard normal distribution, that is, a normal distribution with $\\ \mu = 0$ and $\\ \sigma = 1$ .
We are provided with a z-score of -0.84 or $\\ z = -0.84$ .

Preliminaries

A z-score is a standardized value, i.e., one that we can obtain using the next formula:

$\\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}$ [1]

Where

x is the raw value coming from a normal distribution that we want to standardize.
And we already know that $\\ \mu$ and $\\ \sigma$ are the mean and the standard deviation, respectively, of the normal distribution.

A z-score represents the distance from $\\ \mu$ in standard deviations units. When the value for z is negative, it "tells us" that the raw score is below $\\ \mu$ . Conversely, when the z-score is positive, the standardized raw score, x, is above the mean, $\\ \mu$ .

Solving the question

We already know that $\\ z = -0.84$ or that the standardized value for a raw score, x, is below $\\ \mu$ in 0.84 standard deviations.

The values for probabilities of the standard normal distribution are tabulated in the standard normal table, which is available in Statistics books or on the Internet and is generally in cumulative probabilities from negative infinity, - $\\ \infty$ , to the z-score of interest.

Well, to solve the question, we need to consult the standard normal table for $\\ z = -0.84$ . For this:

Find the cumulative standard normal table.
In the first column of the table, use -0.8 as an entry.
Then, using the first row of the table, find -0.04 (which determines the second decimal place for the z-score.)
The intersection of these two numbers "gives us" the cumulative probability for z or $\\ P(z$ .

Therefore, we obtain $\\ P(z$ for this z-score, or a slightly more than 20% (20.045%) for the "probability that a given score is less than negative 0.84".

This represent the area under the standard normal distribution, $\\ N(0,1)$ , at the left of z = -0.84.

To "draw a sketch of the region", we need to draw a normal distribution (symmetrical bell-shaped distribution), with mean that equals 0 at the middle of the distribution, $\\ \mu = 0$ , and a standard deviation that equals 1, $\\ \sigma = 1$ .

Then, divide the abscissas axis (horizontal axis) into equal parts of one standard deviation from the mean to the left (negative z-scores), and from the mean to the right (positive z-scores).

Find the place where z = -0.84 (i.e, below the mean and near to negative one standard deviation, $\\ -\sigma$ , from it). All the area to the left of this value must be shaded because it represents $\\ P(z$ and that is it.

The below graph shows the shaded area (in blue) for $\\ P(z$ for $\\ N(0,1)$ .

slamgirl [31]

In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.

Given that,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

We have to determine,

How long would it take for the population to grow to 700 organisms?

According to the question,

A strand of bacteria has a doubling time of 15 minutes.

If the population starts with 10 organisms.

In 15 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 10 organisms.

$\rm = 10 \times 2 = 20 \ bacteria$

In 15 minutes 20 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 30 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 20 organisms.

$\rm = 20 \times 2 = 40 \ bacteria$

In 30 minutes 40 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 45 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 40 organisms.

$\rm = 40 \times 2 = 80 \ bacteria$

In 45 minutes 80 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 60 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 80 organisms.

$\rm = 80 \times 2 = 160 \ bacteria$

In 60 minutes 160 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 75 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 160 organisms.

$\rm = 160 \times 2 = 320 \ bacteria$

In 75 minutes 320 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 90 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 320 organisms.

$\rm = 320 \times 2 = 640 \ bacteria$

In 90 minutes 640 bacteria for the population to grow.

In 120 minutes strand of bacteria has a doubling time the population starts with 640 organisms.

$\rm = 640 \times 2 = 1280 \ bacteria$

In 120 minutes 1280 bacteria for the population to grow.

Hence, In 90 minutes the population to grow to 700 organisms.
