Answer:

A.99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

  • Mean of a distribution, μ as 0.68 ounce
  • Standard deviation, σ as 0.02 ounce
  • The range values of X between 0.62 ounce and 0.74 ounce

We are required to calculate the percentage of the weight to be between 0.62 ounce and 0.74 ounce

Step 1: Calculate the Z-score

To get the Z-score we use the formula;

Z-score = (x-μ)/σ

Therefore, when x = 0.62

Then z score = (0.62 - 0.68 ) ÷ 0.02

                     = -3

When, x = 0.74

Then, Z score = (0.74 - 0.68) ÷ 0.02

                       = 3

Step 2:  we use the Z-score table or the empirical rule

Using the Z-score table;

P(-3 < z < 3) = 99.7%.

Therefore; the percentage of mice that weigh between 0.62 ounce and 0.74 ounce is 99.7%.

Solve the equation using the order of operations.<br><br> 5+{2×[(5−1)+6]}÷4
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The order of operations is PEMDAS

First step is to do everything is parenthesis or brackets

5+{2*[(5-1)+6]}/4

{2*[(5-1)+6]}

First you would go 5-1=4, because that is the first equation that is in parenthesis by itself.

{2*[4+6]}

Next you would go 4+6=10, because that is your next smallest bracket

{2*10}

Last you would go 2*10=20

Your equation now looks like this

5+{20}/4

In PEMDAS your next step is exponents, but we don't have any so we go on to the next one which is multiply/division

5+5

You would go 20/4=5

Last step is to add/subtract

5+5=10

Your final answer would be 10

Hope this helps ;)

Determine if the leading coefficient of the following function is positive or negative and whether the function has a minimum or
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The function has a negative leading coefficient and a maximum vertex point

Explanation:

This function's leading coefficient is determined by whether it is concave up or concave down, meaning it has an Up and Up end behavior for a positive leading coefficient and a Down and Down end behavior for a negative coefficient.

This function's end behavior is Down and Down, so it must have a negative leading coefficient.

The function has a minimum vertex when the function has a positive leading coefficient and a maximum vertex point when the function has a negative leading coefficient.

This means that the functions vertex is the highest or lowest possible value of the function (the rest of the function continues forever in whichever direction.

This particular function has a maximum vertex as there is no point above the vertex here and the function has a negative leading coefficient.

In option A, the initial investment do not increase at a constant rate yearly.

In option B, the amount invested increase by $75 yearly.

In option C, the yearly increase does not have a steady value.
