If it is a right triangle and AC is the hypotenuse, then AC is 5.
This is a Pythagorean Triple 3-4-5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the incubation times are approximately normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = incubation times of fertilized eggs in days
µ = mean incubation time
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 19 days
σ = 1 day
a) For the 20th percentile for incubation times, it means that 20% of the incubation times are below or even equal to 19 days(on the left side). We would determine the z score corresponding to 20%(20/100 = 0.2)
Looking at the normal distribution table, the z score corresponding to the probability value is - 0.84
Therefore,
- 0.84 = (x - 19)/1
x = - 0.84 + 19 = 18.16
b) for the incubation times that make up the middle 97% of fertilized eggs, the probability is 97% that the incubation times lie below and above 19 days. Thus, we would determine 2 z values. From the normal distribution table, the two z values corresponding to 0.97 are
1.89 and - 1.89
For z = 1.89,
1.89 = (x - 19)/1
x = 1.89 + 19 = 20.89 days
For z = - 1.89,
- 1.89 = (x - 19)/1
x = - 1.89 + 19 = 17.11 days
the incubation times that make up the middle 97% of fertilized eggs are
17.11 days and 20.89 days
Y = -2x +8
y = x-1
y=y
-2x+8 = x-1
-3x = -1 -8
-3x = -9
3x = 9
x = 3
