Answer:

P=0.954 or 95.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula for the standardized normal distribution to find Z:

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

Where μ is the mean (μ=20) and σ is the standard deviation (σ=2.6).  

Z_{1} =\frac{14.8-20}{2.6}=-2.0

Z_{1} =\frac{25.2-20}{2.6}=2.0

In the table of the normal distribution, we can look for positive values z, and these values are going to represent the area under the curve between z=0 and the values searched. the negatives values are found by symmetry (with the corresponding positive value but remember this area is under the left side of the curve).  To find a value in the table, find the units in the first column and the follow over the same row till you find the decimals required.

P_1=0.4772

P_2=0.4772

P_1 represents the probability of length being between 14.8 and 20 (the mean) and P_2 represents the probability of length being between 20 and 25.2, The requested probability is the sum of these two.

P=P_1+P_2=0.954

Express 3m24cm in kilometers,leaving your answer in standard form​
erastova [34]

Answer:

0.00324 kilometres

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember:

100 centimeters = 1 meter

1000 meters = 1 kilometer

So first, let's add together the meters and centimeters. To do that, we have to convert the meters to centimeters. That would become 300 centimeters, then you add the 24 centimeters to get 324 centimeters. Then, you convert that to kilometers. You can use a calculator for this, but I'll show you how to do this without a calculator. Since 100 centimeters is one meter, and 1000 meters equals to one kilometer, there would be 5 spaces from 324 to our answer, so you move the invisible decimal point 5 spaces to the left, and you get your answer, which is 0.00324 kilometres!

Answer:

You would click at (0,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of the minimum point:

"The minimum value of a function is the place where the graph has a vertex at its lowest point. In the real world, you can use the minimum value of a quadratic function to determine minimum cost or area."

Although this is not a quadratic, it still has a minimum point.

The minimum point here would be at it's lowest point

The minimum/lowest point is (0,-7)
