Answer: 0.9884

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Population mean : \mu=142

and standard deviation : \sigma=6

sample size : n= 35

Let x be the random variable that represents the diameter of steel bolts.

Using formula z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} ,

The z-value corresponds to x=139.7

z=\dfrac{139.7-142}{\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{35}}}\approx-2.27

The probability that the sample mean would be greater than 139.7 millimeters will be :-

P(x>139.7)=P(z>-2.27)=1-P(z

Hence, the required probability : = 0.9884

Solve the following system of equations using the elimination method.
Margaret [11]
So for eliminating, you only solve for one variable first.

I solved for y, so I multiplied by -4 to eliminate the x.

Then I got y= -1

I then substituted that to one of the equations to get x.

Can someone please help me with this???

Answer:

1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use the Pythagorean theorem. In fact the diagonal of a rectangle is an hypotenuse of a right triangle, while the length is a leg. The width is the other leg

width = √2^2 - (√3)^2 = √4 - 3 = √1 = 1 cm
