Answer:
The correct option is D. 81.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of the data set is given to be 40
⇒ μ = 40
Standard deviation of the data set is given to be 5
⇒ σ = 5
Now we are supposed to find out what percent of the numbers fall between 35 and 50

Now for P(35 < x < 50) :
Substitute x = 35 ⇒ z = -1
Substitute x = 50 ⇒ z = 2
So, P(-1 < z < 2) = P(z < 2) - P(z < -1)
⇒ P(-1 < z < 2) = 0.9772 - 0.1587
⇒ P(-1 < z < 2) = 0.8185
⇒ P(-1 < z < 2) = 81.8%
Therefore, 81.8% percent of the numbers fall between 35 and 50
Hence, The correct option is D. 81.8%
First let's review how to expand this!
(ax+b)^2=a^2*x^2+2abx+a^2
In this case
(2x^2+1/2)^2=2^2*x^2+2*1/2*2x+(1/2)^2
=4x^2+2x+1/4
Done!
Answer: 8.1ft
Step-by-step explanation:
It may help to draw it out but for this question you would have to use pythagoras' theorem.
The formula for the shorter side is a²=c²-b²
The height of this triangle is 4ft (b) and the hypotenuse (the diagonal that stretches from the top to the bottom) is 9ft (c).
When we put the numbers in the formula you get a²=9²-4²
9²=81
4²=16
a²=81-16
a²=65
Then because we want to find a on it's own you would have to square root 65 which is 8.1 (to the nearest tenth)
