Answer:

You must subtract all terms of the numerator being subtracted out, not just the first term.

The negative 2 should have been subtracted out to get a numerator of x+1-x+2

The simplified numerator of the difference should be 3, not –1.

The distribution of bladder volume in men is approximately normal with mean 550 ml and standard deviation 100 ml. what percent o

ruslelena [56]

To solve this, we use the z-test.

z = (x – u) / σ

when x = 450

z = (450 – 550) / 100

z = -1

We use the standard distribution tables to find for P.

P = 0.1587

Since we are looking for values greater than x = 450, therefore:

1 – 0.1587 = 0.8413

This means that 84.13% have bladder volume larger than 450 mL.

What is the exact volume of the cylinder? Cylinder with height of 6 inches and radius of 3 inches. 324π in3 18π in3 36π in3 54π

Afina-wow [57]

Volume of a cylinder is pi*r^2*h where r = radius and h = height
so 3^2*6*pi = 9*6*pi = 54pi

54 pi is the answer. mark me brainliest please!

Using prime factorization what is the GCF 3y 2 squared, 24y 3 cubed

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$3y^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

To find the GCF of $3y^2\ and\ 24y^3$ using prime factorization.

Writing each in prime factors:

3 = 1 $\times$ <u>3</u>

24 = 1 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 2 $\times$ <u>3</u>

Now, GCF of 3 and 24 is 3

$y^2=1\times y\times y$

$y^3=1\times y\times y\times y$

GCF of $y^2$ and $y^3$ is $y\times y=y^2$ .

Therefore, the overall GCF of the two terms is $3y^2$
