Subtract corresponding x and y components

- u - v = - <- 8, 4> - <2, 7> = <8, - 4> - <2, 7> = <8 - 2, - 4 - 7> = <6, - 11>

u - v = <- 8, 4> - <2, 7> = <- 8 - 2, 4 - 7> = <- 10, - 3>

v - u = <2, 7> - <- 8, 4> = <2 + 8, 7 - 4> = <10, 3>

A customer buys 15.5 cheese pizzas which are $10.50 each. What is the total? Round it to the nearest hundredth.

Cerrena [4.2K]

First of all, how do you buy exactly 15.5 pizzas?
what is a 0.5 pizza?

anyway

cost=cost per pizza times number of pizzas
cost per pizza=10.50
number of pizzas=15.5

cost=10.50 times 15.5
cost=162.75

total cost is $162.75

The time for a professor to grade an exam is normally distributed with a mean of 16.3 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.2 mi

dem82 [27]

Answer:

62.17% probability that a randomly selected exam will require more than 15 minutes to grade

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 16.3, \sigma = 4.2$
