<span>Mia is the one who is closer to the treasure chest. A theorem in Triangle Inequalities state that lines opposite of bigger angles have longer sides. In the case of this triangle, the angle opposite of Mia’s path is smaller than the angle opposite of Nigel’s. To confirm the actual distance, the law of sine and law of cosine can be used.</span>

Someone please help I really appreciate it

So you have to find the relationship between the pumpkin diameter (y) and the number of weeks passed (x) in a table, lets do it taking into account that the equation modeling such behaviour is:
y = 2x + 6, where x is the number of weeks and plus original 6 cm
x y
week diameter
0 6
1 8
3 12
5 16
10 26
substitute the x and y values in the equation to see how they fit into it

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet and an area of at least 8000 square feet. Describe the possible leng

tangare [24]

Answer:

The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of rectangular plot and y be the breadth of rectangular plot

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet

Perimeter of rectangular plot =2(l+b)=2(x+y)=440

2(x+y)=440

x+y=220

y=220-x

We are also given that an area of at least 8000 square feet.

So, $xy \leq 8000$

So, $x(220-x) \leq 8000$

$220x-x^2 \leq 8000$

So, $220x-x^2 = 8000\\-x^2+220x-8000=0$

General quadratic equation : $ax^2+bx+c=0$

Formula : $x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-220 \pm \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=\frac{-220 + \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)} , \frac{-220 - \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=45.96,174.031$

So, The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet

Assume that women's heights are normally distributed with a mean given by mu equals 62.5 in,and a standard deviation given by

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

(a) 0.5899

(b) 0.9166

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that represents the height of a woman. Then, X is normally distributed with

$\mu$ = 62.5 in

$\sigma$ = 2.2 in

the normal probability density function is given by

$f(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}2.2}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2)^{2}}}$ , then

(a) $P(X < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}f(x) dx$ = 0.5899

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2)

(b) We are seeking $P(\bar{X} < 63)$ where n = 37. $\bar{X}$ is normally distributed with mean 62.5 in and standard deviation $2.2/\sqrt{37}$ . So, the probability density function is given by

$g(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{37}}}\exp{-\frac{(x-62.5)^{2}}{2(2.2/\sqrt{37})^{2}}}$ , and

$P(\bar{X} < 63) = \int\limits_{-\infty}^{63}g(x)dx$ = 0.9166

(in the R statistical programming language) pnorm(63, mean = 62.5, sd = 2.2/sqrt(37))

You can use a table from a book to find the probabilities or a programming language like the R statistical programming language.
