An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130lb and 1

71lb. The new population of pilots has normally distributed weights with a mean of 137lb and a standard deviation of 28.9lb. If a pilot is randomly selected find the probability that his weight is between 130lb and 171lb​

Answer: 0.4758

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : \mu=137\text{ lb}

Standard deviation : \sigma =28.9\text{ lb}

Also, the new population of pilots has normally distributed .

The formula to calculate the z-score :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x=130 lb .

z=\dfrac{130-137}{28.9}=-0.2422145\approx-0.24

For x=171lb.

z=\dfrac{171-137}{28.9}=1.1764705\approx1.18

The p-value =P(-0.24

=0.8809999-0.4051651=0.4758348\approx0.4758348\approx0.4758

Hence, the required probability : 0.4758

When 5 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 4 times the number. Find the negative solution.
wariber [46]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write it as...

x^{2} -5=4x

Carry the 4x

x^{2} -4x-5=0

Then use the quadratic formula to solve, since you want to find the negative solution, you don't need to find the positive solution, so we will have

(4-\sqrt{16+20}) /2=\frac{4-6}{2}=\frac{-2}{2} =-1

Therefore our answer is -1
