We can say that the 8 foot base is the adjacent side.
We can say that the 5 foot altitude is the opposite side.
the tangent of the base angle = 5/8 = .625
Therefore the angle equals
arc tangent (.625) = 32.005 degrees

The pregnancy length in days for a population of new mothers can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean of 269 day
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

a) 279 b)254

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = 269 days

standard deviation = 8 days

let n be the pregnancy lenght.  

using normal distribution formula

z = (n – mean)/ standard deviation

n = z * standard deviation + mean

Now, z values for the top 12% has to be found using a z table.

The top 12% means 88% of area under the curve. In this case z = 1,176

n = 1,176 * 8 + 269

n = 278.4 = 279

The bottom 3% means 97% of area under the curve. In this case z = -1,882

n = -1,882 * 8 + 269

n = 253.94 = 254

Someone please help
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution for (a):</u>

<u />

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.

The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365

So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

<u>Solution for (b):</u>

<u />

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.

I need some help:
dedylja [7]

The unit rate is another way of saying speed, so we divide the distance over the time. We can pick on any row

If we pick row 1, then, speed = distance/time = 90/2 = 45

Row 2 says the same thing: 135/3 = 45

So does row 3: 225/5 = 45

and so on

Because the speed is 45 mph, the unit rate is 45 miles in one hour. The term "unit" implies how much distance can be covered in one unit of time, in this case 1 hour.

You have the correct answer. Nice work.

Direct Variation - Item 2845
Brums [2.3K]

The equation of direct proportion is y = 62x

<h3>Direct variation</h3>

Two quantities are said to vary directly proportional to each other when an increase in one leads to an increase in the other or a decrease in one leads to a decrease in the other.

Direct variation is given by:

y = kx

where y, x are the variables and k is the constant of proportionality.

The equation of direct proportion is y = 62x
