Given:
μ = 55 in, population mean
σ = 6 in, population standard deviation

Part (a)
x = 48 in, the random variable
Calculate the z-score.
z = (x - μ)/σ
   = (48 - 55)/6
   = -1.667
From standard table, obtain

Given the following information, is it possible to determine the length of YZ? If so, find the length and explain below. If not,
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

YZ cannot be determined from the similar triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two similar triangles, to get any sides of the triangles, the ratio of their congruent sides is equal to a constant, Hence;

AB/XY = AC/XY

Also, BC/YZ = AB/XY

This shows that to get YZ, both BC and XY must be given. Since we are not given either of the two sides hence YZ cannot be determined from the similar triangles

he volume of a square pyramid is 288 in^3in 3 and the square base has a perimeter of 48 inches, find the height of the pyramid.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Perimeter = 4s

s = P/4

s = 48 in/4

s = 12 in

V = a^2h/3

h = 3V/a^2

h = 3(288 in^3)/ (12 in)^2

h = 864 in^3 / 144 in^2

h = 6 inches
