Answer:
The signed number that indicates how much of the levee will erode during the next decade is:
-30 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Erosion rate of the banks of the levee = 3 feet per year
For 10 years, if nothing is done to correct the problem, the eroded banks will be equal to 10 * 3 = 30 feet
Therefore, the signed erosion in the next decade is -30 feet.
b) The quantity of erosion can be given as the number of years involved without correction, multiplied by the rate of erosion per year. This implies that the quantity of erosion depends on the number of years and the rate of erosion per year.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x³ − 9x² + 11x + 21
f(3) = (3)³ − 9(3)² + 11(3) + 21
f(3) = 27 − 81 + 33 + 21
f(3) = 0
Answer:
14.63% probability that a student scores between 82 and 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the probability that a student scores between 82 and 90?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 90 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 82. So
X = 90



has a pvalue of 0.9649
X = 82



has a pvalue of 0.8186
0.9649 - 0.8186 = 0.1463
14.63% probability that a student scores between 82 and 90
1. Let L=length and W=width
2. L=5w+2
3. The perimeter can be solved as follows:
(5w+2) + (5w+2) + w + w = 114 in
12w + 4 = 114 in
12w = 110
w = 110/12
w = 9.17
L = 47.83
(side 1)² + (side 2)² = (diagonal)²
(9.5² + (14)² = (diagonal)²
90.25 + 196 = (diagonal)²
286.25 = (diagonal)²
√286.25 = √(diagonal)²
17 = diagonal
