We can then write an equation representing this problem as:

e−1.5mi=5.25mi

Now, add 1.5mi to each side of the equation to solve for e while keeping the equation balanced:

e−1.5mi+1.5mi=5.25mi+1.5mi

e−0=6.75mi

e=6.75mi

The plane's starting elevation was 6.75 miles

Hope this helps!

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

a) 0.5588

b) 0.9984

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 24

Standard Deviation, σ = 6.4

We are given that the distribution of score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

a) P(score between 20 and 30)

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{6.4} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{6.4}) = P(-0.62 \leq z \leq 0.94)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.94) - P(z < -0.62)\\= 0.8264 - 0.2676 = 0.5588 = 55.88\%$

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = 55.88\%$

b) Sampling distribution

Sample size, n = 22

The sample will follow a normal distribution with mean 24 and standard deviation,

$s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{6.4}{\sqrt{22}} =1.36$

c) P(mean score of sample is between 20 and 30)

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) = P(\displaystyle\frac{20 - 24}{1.36} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{30-24}{1.36}) = P(-2.94 \leq z \leq 4.41)\\\\= P(z \leq 4.41) - P(z < -2.94)\\= 1 - 0.0016 = 0.9984 = 99.84\%$

$P(20 \leq x \leq 30) =99.84\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(1 + \cos(x) )(1 - \cos(x) )$

$1 - \cos {}^{2} (x)$

$= \sin {}^{2} (x)$

$\frac{1}{ \cot {}^{2} (x) } - \frac{1}{ \cos {}^{2} (x) }$

$\frac{1}{ \frac{ \cos {}^{2} (x) }{ \sin { }^{2} (x) } } - \frac{1}{ \cos {}^{2} (x) }$

$\frac{1}{ \cot {}^{2} (x) } - \frac{ \csc {}^{2} (x) {} }{ \cot {}^{2} (x) }$

$\frac{ - \cot {}^{2} (x) }{ \cot {}^{2} (x) }$

$- 1$

$\sec {}^{2} ( \frac{\pi}{2} - x ) )( \sin {}^{2} (x) - \sin {}^{4} (x))$

$( \csc {}^{2} (x) )( \sin {}^{2} (x) - \sin {}^{4} (x )$

$\csc {}^{2} (x) ( \frac{1}{ \csc {}^{2} (x) } - \frac{1}{ \csc {}^{4} (x) } )$

$1 - \frac{1}{ \csc {}^{2} (x) }$

$1 - \sin {}^{2} (x)$

$\cos {}^{2} (x)$

B because you already know number of cookies eaten, you dont know if the total was 12 cookies because you dont know how many days so, if you dont know how many days then y would be the number of days... Good Luck
