Alright, lets get started.

The weight of first shipment = 1 ton 115 pounds

As we know, 1 ton = 2000 pounds, so

So, the weight of first shipment = 2000 + 115 = 2115 pounds

The weight of second shipment = 1723 pounds 7 ounces

The weight of third shipment = 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, adding all three weights = 2115 pounds + 1723 pounds 7 ounces + 957 pounds 11 ounces

So, all three weights = 4795 pounds 18 ounces

As we know, 16 ounces = 1 pound, so

all three weights = 4795 pound 1 pound 2 ounces

All three weights = 4796 pounds 2 ounces

4796 could be wriiten as 4000 + 796

As we know, 2000 pound = 1 ton so

All three weight = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces

So, the total weight of three shipments = 2 tons 796 pounds 2 ounces   :   Answer

Answer:

z=\frac{24-40}{8}=-2

z=\frac{40-40}{8}=0

And then the percentage between 24 and 40 would be \frac{95}{2}= 47.5 \%

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we have the following parameters given:

\mu = 40, \sigma =8

And for this case we want to find the percentage of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 24 and 40.

From the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values within one deviation from the mean, 95% of the values within 2 deviations and 99.7% within 3 deviations.

We can find the number of deviations from themean for the limits with the z score formula we got:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

And replacing we got:

z=\frac{24-40}{8}=-2

z=\frac{40-40}{8}=0

And then the percentage between 24 and 40 would be \frac{95}{2}= 47.5 \%

Identify the coordinates of the image of vertex M under a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 1/2
poizon [28]

Answer:

(2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The current coordinate of M are (4,0). This means the side length of OM is 4. To scale down by a factor of 1/2, the side length would become 4*1/2 = 2.

This side is now 2 and would place the point M at (2,0).
