Answer:

<h2>24 cm</h2>

Solution,

from the figure,height of ∆ DBC=36-h

Now,in two similar triangles, ratio of corresponding sides are equal to ratio of their heights.

Since, ∆DBC~∆EBA

$\frac{36 - h}{h} = \frac{dc}{ae} \\ or \: \frac{36 - h}{h} = \frac{10}{20} \\ or \: 20(36 - h) = 10 \times h(cross \: multiplication) \\ or \: 720 - 20h = 10h \\ or \: - 20h - 10h = - 720 \\ or \: - 30h = - 720 \\ or \: h = \frac{ - 720}{ - 30} \\ h = 24 \: cm$

Height of ABE =24 cm

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:

$\mu = 16.3, \sigma = 4.2$

What is the probability that a randomly selected exam will require more than 15 minutes to grade

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 15. So

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

$Z = \frac{15 - 16.3}{4.2}$

$Z = -0.31$

$Z = -0.31$ has a pvalue of 0.3783.

1 - 0.3783 = 0.6217

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

Mr Teo wants to buy an oven. Which shop sells the oven at a lower price? Show your working clearly.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Shop B

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

To solve this question, we can find the new prices of each oven and identify which one is cheaper.

<u>Shop A</u>

Usual price: $190

Discount: 15%

First, we must subtract the discount percent from 100:

100 - 15 = 85

Therefore, the new price of the product will be 85% of the original price. Find 85% of $190:

190 × 0.85

Therefore, the new price is $161.50.

<u>Shop B</u>

Usual price: $200

Discount: 20%

Again, subtract 20 from 100:

100 - 20 = 80

This means that the new price of the oven is 80% of the original price:

200 × 0.8 = 160

Therefore, the new price is $160.

Because a $160 oven is cheaper than a $161.50 oven, Shop B sells the oven at a lower price.

I hope this helps!

$y = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{8 \sqrt{3} }{3} \\$

$y = \frac{4 \sqrt{3} }{3} \\$

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

$x = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} \times \frac{8 \sqrt{3} }{3} \\$

$x = \frac{8 \times { \sqrt{3} }^{2} }{2 \times 3} \\$

$x = \frac{8 \times 3}{2 \times 3} \\$

$x = \frac{8}{2} \\$

$x = 4$
