Answer:
a) 0.1587
b) 0.0475
c) 0.7938
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start defining our random variable.
X : ''Thickness (in mm) of ancient prehistoric Native American pot shards discovered in a Hopi village''
X is modeled as a normal random variable.
X ~ N(μ,σ)
Where μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation.
To calculate all the probabilities, we are going to normalize the random variable X.
We are going to call to the standard normal distribution ''Z''.
[(X - μ) / σ] ≅ Z
We normalize by subtracting the mean to X and then dividing by standard deviation.
We can find the values of probabilities for Z in a standard normal distribution table.
We are going to call Φ(A) to the normal standard cumulative distribution evaluated in a value ''A''
a)
Φ(-1) = 0.1587
b)
1 - Φ(1.666) = 1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475
c)
Φ(1.666) - Φ(-1) = 0.9525 - 0.1587 = 0.7938
Have you tried asking a teacher for help before this
and did you try to take notes cuse notes are your best friends
If the apple is on the ground, then the height y is 0. To find t, just plug in 0 for y:
So the answer is 2.74 seconds.
Note that taking the square root of 7.5, mathematically, gives you both 2.74 and -2.74. But because we know that time did not go backwards, only the positive value for t was considered.
Answer:
13 and -14 satisfy this condition
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent that number as x
and the square of x is x^2
So,
x + x^2 = 182
Subtract 182 from both sides
x + x^2 - 182 = 182 - 182
x + x^2 - 182 = 0
rearrange the quadratic equation
x^2 + x -182 = 0
let's use the quadratic formula
or 
a = 1, b = 1, c = -182
or 
or 
or 
or 
or 
13 or - 14
Lets check
13 + 13^2 = 13 + 169
= 182
Also,
-14 + (-14^2) = -14 + 196
= 182
