(a) someone over 55
mean, mu = 22
standard deviation, sigma = 2
X=19
Z(X)=(X-mu)/sigma=(19-22)/2=-1.5
P(x>X)=1-P(x<X)=1-0.0668072=0.9331928
Therefore probability for a 55-year old to find a job in over 19 weeks is 0.9332

18 is 45% of what number? ____<br> Please help me I can't solve this
Alexxx [7]

18/x = 45/100

cross multiply

18/x * 45/100

45x =1800

divide both sides by 45

45x/45 =1800/45

x=40

18 is 45% of 40

The area of the smallest equilateral triangle with one vertex on each of the sides of the right triangle with side lengths and <
Gre4nikov [31]
Set up the given triangle on x-y coordinates with right angle at (0,0). So the two vertices are at (5,0) and (0,2sqrt{x} n]{3})

let (a,0) and (0,b) be two vertices of the<span> equilateral triangle. So the third vertex must be at </span>(\frac{a+\sqrt{3}b}{2} ,  \frac{b+\sqrt{3}a}{2} )

for a pt (x,y) on line sx+ty=1, the minimum of \sqrt{x^{2} + {y^{2} }
equals to \frac{1}{ \sqrt{ s^{2} +  t^{2} } }

smallest value happens at \frac{10 \sqrt{3} }{67}

so area is \frac{75\sqrt{3}}{67}

hence m=75, n=67, p=3
m+n+p = 75+67+3 = 145

The slope of a line is -4 and Y negative intercept is -3 what is the equation of the line written in slope intercept form
lord [1]

Answer:

y = mx + c

m = -4

at y intercept x = 0

(x,y) =(0,-3)

-3 = -4(0) + c

c = -3

therefore the answer is y = -4x + c

Find the value of x that makes the equation true. x + 4 = 12
kirill115 [55]

x + 4 = 12         Subtract 4 on both sides to get "x" by itself

x + 4 - 4 = 12 - 4

x = 8

What is the height of a rectangular prism that has a volume of 280 cubic meters,a length of 8 meters, and a width of 7 meters? S
lyudmila [28]
When looking at a rectangular prism, we know that Volume = length * width * height

If we are given that the volume of the prism is 280 cubic meters (m^3), the length is 8 meters, and the width is 7 meters, we can fill in our equation.

280 = 8 * 7 * height
280 = 56 * height

Because we are solving for the height, we divide both sides by 56

280/56 = height

height = 5 meters
