A submarine can descend at a rate of -2.5 meters/second. Suppose that the submarine begins at a depth of -25 meters.

1 answer:

5 0

The distance from the initial depth to the maximum depth is:
abs (-200- (-25))= 175 m (distance is always >=0, so we have to take the abs).

175 m* (1 sec/ 2.5m)= 70 sec.

It would take the submarine 70 seconds to reach its maximum depth.

Hope this helps~

Explain why the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational

spayn [35]

Answer:

If you multiply any irrational number by the rational number zero, the result will be zero, which is rational. Any other situation, however, of a rational times an irrational will be irrational.

Suppose the lifetime of a cell phone battery is normally distributed with a mean of 36 months and a standard deviation of 2 mont

solong [7]

Answer:

They should guarantee the lifetime of their batteries for 32 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 36 months and a standard deviation of 2 months.

This means that $\mu = 36, \sigma = 2$
