Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's attack this problem using the z-score concept. The sample std. dev. here is (0.25 oz)/sqrt(40), or 0.040. Thus, the z score representing 3.9 oz. is
3.9 - 4.0
z = -------------- = -2.5
0.040
In one way or another we must find the area under the std. normal curve that lies to the left of z = -2.5. Use a table of z-scores or a calculator with built-in statistics functions. According to my TI-83 Plus calculator, that area is
0.006. One way of interpreting this that with so small a standard deviation, most volumes of coffee put into the jars are very close to the mean, 4 oz.
Answer:
15. 4.9 cm
17. 6.63 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
15. A perpendicular bisector is a segment which divides another in half. Since JH is 9.8 then each of the two segments it divides into is 4.9.
17. The segments within the circle form a right angle. Triangle CRS as a right triangle must follow the Pythagorean theorem which says the square of each leg adds to the square of the hypotenuse.
a² + b² = c²
Here a is unknown, b = 10 and c = 12.
a² + 10² = 12²
a² + 100 = 144
a² = 44
a = √44 = 6.63
You could do 33, 36, 39, 42
Replace x with the variables provided in the question.
