Answer:

31.5 $

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets se how much 1 pound of pasta costs in the store. We do this dividing the price for 8 pounds over those 8 pounds:

12/8 = $1.5 each pound

As 21 pounds are needed:

$1.5 * 21 = $31.5

There are two college entrance exams that are often taken by students, Exam A and Exam B. The composite score on Exam A is appro
elena55 [62]

Answer:

B.The score on Exam A is better, because the percentile for the Exam A score is higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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.

In this problem, we have that:

Two exams. The exam that you did score better is the one in which you had a higher zscore.

The composite score on Exam A is approximately normally distributed with mean 20.1 and standard deviation 5.1.

This means that \mu = 20.1, \sigma = 5.1.

You scored 24 on Exam A. So

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

Z = \frac{24 - 20.1}{5.1}

Z = 0.76

The composite score on Exam B is approximately normally distributed with mean 1031 and standard deviation 215.

This means that \mu = 1031, \sigma = 215.

You scored 1167 on Exam B, s:

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

Z = \frac{1167 - 1031}{215}

Z = 0.632

You had a better Z-score on exam A, so you did better on that exam.

The correct answer is:

B.The score on Exam A is better, because the percentile for the Exam A score is higher.

Find, correct to the nearest degree, the three angles of the triangle with the given vertices.
Leokris [45]

Answer:

angle CAB = 113.8 degree

angle ABC = 35.6 degree

angle BCA = 30.6 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

A(1, 0, −1),

B(5, −3, 0),

C(1, 5, 2)

calculate the length of side by using the distance formula

so

AB = (5,-3,0) - (1,0,-1) = (4,-3,1)

AC= (1,5,2) - (1,0,-1) = (0,5,3)

|AB|

|AC| =\sqrt {(0 + 5^2+3^2)} = \sqrt{34}

From following formula, calculate the angle between the two side i.e Ab and AC

AB.AC = |AB|*|AC| cos ∠CAB

(4,-3,1).(0,5,3)

4*0 -3*5 +1*3

-12 =

cos ∠CAB = - 0.404

angle CAB = 113.8 degree

BA =B- A =  (1,0,-1) - (5,-3,0) = (-4,3,-1)

BC = (1,5,2)-(5,-3,0) = (-4,8,2)

|BA| = \sqrt{(26)}

|BC| = \sqrt {(4^2 + 8^2 + 2^2)} = \sqrt{(84)}

BA.BC = |BA|*|BC|* cosABC

(-4,3,-1).(-4,8,2) =\sqrt{(26)} * \sqrt{(84)} *cosABC

16+24-2

cos ∠ABC = 0.813

angle ABC = 35.6 degree

we know sum of three angle in a traingle is 180 degree hence

sum of all three angle = 180

angle BCA + 35.6 + 113.8 = 180

angle BCA = 30.6 degree
