Answer:

Limits for B scores

( 79,2 ; 92 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The interval we are looking for is between 6 % and 59%

p₁  = 6 %     p₁ = 0,06

As this point is at the right tail of the bell we better look for

p = 1- 0,06     p = 0,94

In z-table z score for 0,94062  is:    z₁ = 1,56      ( 0,94062 ≈ 0,94 )

Doing the same to find z₂ score for 59%  or 0,59

In z-table again

p =  0,59      

z₂ = 0,023

Now we know

1,56 * σ  = x₁ - 79

1,56*8,4 + 79 = x₁

x₁  =  92,10        or  x₁ = 92

And

0,023*8,4 + 79  = x₂

x₂ = 79,19         or    x₂ = 79,2

If p is the midpoint of line xy, xp=11-6b and py=6-b, find xp
MariettaO [177]
Since p is the midpoint then xp and pay must equal each other
So, 11-6b=6-b
Solve for b
11-6b=6-b
-6 -6
5-6b=-b
+6b +6b
5=5b
b=1

xp=11-6(1)
xp=5

If a pool is 4 m wide and 16 m diagonally across, how long is the pool? (Pyth. Theorem)
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

L=4\sqrt{15}\ m

or

L=15.49\ m

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem in the rectangular pool

d^2=L^2+W^2

where

d is the diagonal of the pool

L is the length of the pool

W is the wide of the pool

we have

d=16\ m\\W=4\ m

substitute the given values

16^2=L^2+4^2

solve for L

L^2=16^2-4^2\\L^2=240\\L=\sqrt{240}\ m

simplify

L=4\sqrt{15}\ m

or

L=15.49\ m
