Answer:

The probability that next year Greenville will receive the following amount of rainfall A) At most 55 inches of rain is 0.7734, B) at least 62 inches of rain is 0.0516, C) Between 46 and 55 inches of rain is 0.0387

D Having rainfall of above 65 inches would be considered as an extremely wet year

Step-by-step explanation:

A. To find the probability that next year Greenville will receive at most 55 inches of rain we would have to make the following calculation:

P(X<55)

=P((X-mean)/s<(55-49)/8)

=P(Z<0.75)

=0.7734

The probability that next year Greenville will receive at most 55 inches of rain is 0.7734

B. To find the probability that next year Greenville will receive at most 62 inches of rain we would have to make the following calculation:

P(X>62)

=P(Z>(62-49)/8)

=P(Z>1.63)

=0.0516

The probability that next year Greenville will receive at most 62 inches of rain is 0.0516

C. To find the probability that next year Greenville will receive at Between 46 and 55 inches of rain we would have to make the following calculation:

P(46<X<54)

=P((46-49)/8 <Z<(54-49)/8)

=P(-0.38 <Z< 0.63)

=0.3837

The probability that next year Greenville will receive Between 46 and 55 inches of rain is 0.3837

D. Here consider a value that is more two standard deviations above the mean as an unusual vale. That is:

X=2σ+μ

=2(8)+49

=65

Therefore, having rainfall of above 65 inches would be considered as an extremely wet year.

Use the FOIL method to evaluate the expression
In-s [12.5K]
So u multiply each term in the first parentheses by each term in the second parentheses.

√5 √5 + 6√5-3√5 - 3x6
Now you multiply the numbers which will get u:
5+6√5 - 3√5 - 18
Then subtract:
-13 +3√5 that’s your answer
