Answer:
It's discrete and non-linear
Step-by-step explanation:
it is not continuous and linear because it does not form a line going in one direction the entire time
Answer:
A) 68.33%
B) (234, 298)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the mean is 266 days (m) and the standard deviation is 16 days (sd), so we are asked:
A. P (250 x < 282)
P ((x1 - m) / sd < x < (x2 - m) / sd)
P ((250 - 266) / 16 < x < (282 - 266) / 16)
P (- 1 < z < 1)
P (z < 1) - P (-1 < z)
If we look in the normal distribution table we have to:
P (-1 < z) = 0.1587
P (z < 1) = 0.8413
replacing
0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6833
The percentage of pregnancies last between 250 and 282 days is 68.33%
B. We apply the experimental formula of 68-95-99.7
For middle 95% it is:
(m - 2 * sd, m + 2 * sd)
Thus,
m - 2 * sd <x <m + 2 * sd
we replace
266 - 2 * 16 <x <266 + 2 * 16
234 <x <298
That is, the interval would be (234, 298)
From 9 P.M. to 5 A.M. the temperature dropped 20°, making the rate over 8 hours, -2.5° Per Hour. By 5 A.M., the temperature is -5° since we had to do 15 - 20. From 5 AM to 5 P.M. is 12 hours so -2.5 x 12 = -30 making 30 how much the temperature dropped between 5 A.M. to 5 P.M. Finally, our last equation is -5 - 30 making -35 our answer.
Answer:
√446 ≈ 21.12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The longest dimension of a rectangular prism is the length of the space diagonal from one corner to the opposite corner through the center of the prism. The Pythagorean theorm tells you the square of its length is the sum of the squares of the dimensions of the prism:
d² = (15 cm)² +(11 cm)² +(10 cm)² = (225 +121 +100) cm² = 446 cm²
d = √446 cm ≈ 21.12 cm
The longest line segment that can be drawn in a right rectangular prism is about 21.12 cm.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The square of the face diagonal is the sum of the squares of the dimensions of that face. The square of the space diagonal will be the sum of that square and the square of the remaining prism dimenaion, hence the sum of squares of all three prism dimensions.
