Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Side lenght of square = (x + 3)

Side length of equilateral triangle = (3x - 1)

It is Given that:

Perimeter of square = Perimeter of equilateral triangle

4 times side length of square = 3 times side length of equilateral triangle.

\therefore \: 4(x + 3) = 3(3x - 1) \\  \\  \therefore \: 4x + 12 = 9x - 3  \\ \\ \therefore \:12 + 3 = 9x - 4x \\  \\ \therefore \:15 = 5x \\  \\ \therefore \:x =  \frac{15}{5}  \\  \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:x = 3}}

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 71 and a standard deviation of 3. Suppose 36 golfers play
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

.0228

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 71, \sigma = 3, n = 36, s = \frac{3}{\sqrt{36}} = 0.5

Find the probability that the average score of the 36 golfers exceeded 72.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 72. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{72 - 71}{0.5}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

z  value of 14.9  = (16.3 - 14.9) / 2

= 0.7

= .7580

z  value of 12.9  = (16.3 - 12.9) / 2

= 1.7

=.9554

Required probability = .9554 - .7580

= .1974

or 19.74 % .
