Answer:

b) far above average

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

mean      μ₀  = 76

Standard Deviation   σ = 6

Values in Normal Distribution spread according to:

μ₀  +   σ    =  67.3 %

μ₀  +  2*σ =   95.5 %

μ₀  +  3*σ =   99.7 %

Is relevant to explain that these values spread simmetrically, having as symmetry axis the mean (That is: when we see  μ₀  +  2*σ,  that means that from  μ₀, we will find half of values under the mean and the other half above)

To examine the value 89, scored in the last game we will look for our paticular case values obtained from previuos conditions

That implies:

μ₀  +   σ    = 76 ± 0,5σ     =  76  ± 3      upper limit 79

μ₀  + 2σ    = 76  ±    σ       = 76  ± 6      upper lmit   82

μ₀  + 3σ    = 76  ±   1.5 σ   = 76 ± 9      upper limit  85

We should expect most of the values between the above intervals, the value " 89 " is bigger than 85, the point limit of the 99.7 % of all values, so we should conclude that 89 is far above average ( μ₀ )

Use the sine function.

sine = opposite side of triangle divided by the hypotenuse.

Here is the set up:

sin(50°) = BC/3

sin(50°)/3 = BC

Use your calculator to simply left side.

Take it from here.

Speed boat departed 1.75 hrs after steam boat1.8 hrs after speed boat departure, steam boat has sailed for a total: 1.8+1.75 = 3.55 hrssteam boat's speed is 36.8 km/hr, so it has traveled: 3.55*36.8 = 130.64 km
speed boat is 86.9 km behind steam boat. so it is 130.64-86.9 = 43.74 km from portspeed boat's speed = 43.74/1.8 = 24.3 km/hr

(2, 7) and (-4,1)<br> In point slope form
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

First you need to find the slope with this equation.

<h3>m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}  m=slope</h3><h3>m=\frac{1-7}{-4-2}</h3><h3>m=\frac{-6}{-6}</h3><h3>m=1</h3>

So the point slope form formula is:

<h3>y-y1=m(x-x1)</h3><h3>y-7=1(x-2)</h3><h3>y-7=x-2</h3>

y=x-2+7\\y=x+5This is the point slope form.I hope this help.

Please give me the brainliest

Find the dimensions of the rectangle with area 289 square inches that has minimum perimeter, and then find the minimum perimeter
nalin [4]
 <span>To minimize the perimeter you should always have a square. 
sqrt(289) = 17 
The dimensions should be 17 X 17 

To see , try starting at length 1, and gradually increase the length. 
The height decreases at a faster rate than the length increases, up until you reach a square. 

Or if you want to use algebra, Say the width is 17-x 
Then the length is 289/(17-x) 

Now, this is bigger than 17+x, as shown here: 
289/(17-x) > 17+x 
289 > 289 - x^2 
which is true. 
so the perimeter would be bigger than 2 * (17- x + 17 + x) = 2 * (2 * 17) = 4 * 17 

Again, the dimensions should be a square. 17 X 17.</span>
