Elena L [17]3 years ago
5 0

Did you notice the little box with corners marked in the angle down at the bottom ?
That angle is a right angle, and <em>this triangle is a right triangle</em> !

This piece of information is a big help.  It breaks the problem wide open.
You know that in order to find the longest side of a right triangle . . .

-- Square the length of one short side.
-- Square the length of the other short side.
-- Add the two squares together.
-- Take the square root of the sum.

One short side=48.           Its square = 2,304.
The other short side=48.  Its square = 2,304.
Add the two squares:        2,304 + 2,304 = 4,608

The square root of the sum = √4,608 = <em><u>67.88</u></em> (rounded)

Jim Tree sells trees. The mean length of the trees purchased was 68 inches with a standard deviation of 10 inches. Jim wants to
Zepler [3.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

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

Where,

X = raw score = 84

μ = mean = 68

σ = standard deviation = 10

Putting the values,

Z=\dfrac{84-68}{10}=1.6

The percent of his sales that were less than or equal to 84 inches, is

P(Z\leq 1.6)=0.9452=94.52\%\approx 94.5\%

Therefore, the remaining 100-94.5=5.5% were more than 84 inches.
