First lets see the pythagorean identities
So if we have to solve for sin theta , first we move cos theta to left side and then take square root to both sides, that is
Now we need to check the sign of sin theta
First we have to remember the sign of sin, cos , tan in the quadrants. In first quadrant , all are positive. In second quadrant, only sin and cosine are positive. In third quadrant , only tan and cot are positive and in the last quadrant , only cos and sec are positive.
So if theta is in second quadrant, then we have to positive sign but if theta is in third or fourth quadrant, then we have to use negative sign .
Answer:
<em>a) P(x<1200)=74.14%</em>
<em>b) P(1100<X<1250)=57.54%</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Normal Distribution</u>
The normal distribution, also known as the bell curve, is a distribution that occurs naturally in many situations of life. We use the model to understand the behavior of some real-life variables. Where
is the mean value and
is the standard deviation.
In our case, we have
And are required to find the percentage of steers whose weigh lie within a given range. We must use some sort of table or digital means to compute the values because the normal distribution cannot be calculated directly by a formula. We use the NORMDIST (or NORM.DIST) formula for Excel which gives us the left tail of the area behind the bell curve, i.e. the cumulative percentage for a give value of X. The formula has the form
NORM.DIST(x,mean,standard_dev,cumulative)
a) X<1200
The formula is used with the following parameters
NORM.DIST(1200,1143,88,true)
and we get
b) We need to compute P(1100<X<1250). To do this, we calculate both left tails and the subtract them
NORM.DIST(1100,1143,88,true)=0.3125
NORM.DIST(1250,1143,88,true)=0.8880
