Answer: D) 0.0013

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the lengths of rods.

As pr given , we have

n=100 , \mu=120\ inches  \sigma=0.05\ inch

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

For x= 119.985 inches , we have

z=\dfrac{119.985 -120}{\dfrac{0.05}{\sqrt{100}}}=-3

Using the standard z-table , we have

The probability that Claude's sample has a mean less than 119.985 inches is

P(z

Hence, the probability that Claude's sample has a mean less than 119.985 inches is 0.0013.

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos x+\sqrt{2}=-\cos x \\ 2\cos x = -\sqrt 2 \\ \cos x = -\dfrac{\sqrt 2}{2}\\ \\ \Rightarrow x = \pm \arccos\Big(-\dfrac{\sqrt 2}{2}\Big)+2k\pi,\quad x\in \mathbb{Z}\\ \Rightarrow x =\pm\dfrac{3\pi}{4}+2k\pi\\ \\ \\k = -1 \Rightarrow x < 0\\\\ k=0 \Rightarrow x 2\pi

Answer:

280 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 420 miles=12 gallons

That means that for 1 gallon you would be able to go 35 miles.

Just multiply that by 8. 35*8=280

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the ratio of distance to time.

For Jada:

Speed = 2 miles / 12 minutes = 0.167 miles per minute

For Jada cousin:

Speed = 1 mile / 24 min = 0.0417 miles per minute.

Hence, in 15 minutes:

Jada distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 2.5 miles

Jada cousin distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 0.625 miles

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.
