Make a drawing with a right triangle.

The opposite side, y, is the height of the dam less 1.65 m

The base or adjacent side is 90 m

The angle between the two sides is 90 m.

Then tan (26) = y / 90

y = 90 tan(26) = 90 (0.4877) = 43.90 m

The height of the dam is 43.90m + 1.65m = 45.55 m

Complete the equation so that it has solutions of -5 and 7<br> 2+
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

x^2 -2x -35 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets's solve backwards

x = -5

Add 5 to both sides

x + 5 = 5 - 5

x + 5  = 0

and

x = 7

Subtract 7 from both sides

x - 7 = 7 - 7

x - 7 = 0

Finding the product of both linear functions

(x + 5)(x - 7) =0

x^2 -7x + 5x -35 =0

x^2 -2x -35 = 0

A pretzel company calculated that there is a mean of 73.5 broken pretzels in each production run with a standard deviation of 5.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

0.1894 = 18.94% probability that there will be fewer than 69 broken pretzels in a run.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A pretzel company calculated that there is a mean of 73.5 broken pretzels in each production run with a standard deviation of 5.1.

This means that \mu = 73.5, \sigma = 5.1

Find the probability that there will be fewer than 69 broken pretzels in a run.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 69.

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

Z = \frac{69 - 73.5}{5.1}

Z = -0.88

Z = -0.88 has a p-value of 0.1894

0.1894 = 18.94% probability that there will be fewer than 69 broken pretzels in a run.
