Answer: B. 461 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In an agricultural study, the average amount of corn yield is normally distributed with a mean of 185.2 bushels of corn per acre, with a standard deviation of 23.5 bushels of corn.

i.e. \mu=185.2\ \ , \ \sigma=23.5

Let x denotes the amount of corn yield.

Now, the probability that the amount of corn yield is more than 190 bushels of corn per acre.

P(x>190)=P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\dfrac{190-185.2}{23.5})

[Formula : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]

=P(z>0.2043)=1-P(z  [∵ P(Z>z)=1-P(Z<z)]

1-0.5809405   [using z-value calculator or table]

=0.4190595

Now, If a study included 1100 acres then the expected number to yield more than 190 bushels of corn per acre :-

0.4190595\times1100=460.96545\approx461\text{ acres}

hence, the correct answer is B. 461 acres .

<h3>What exactly is a rectangle?</h3>

It has four sides and is a polygon. The internal angle total is 360 degrees. The opposing sides of a rectangle are parallel and equal, and each angle is 90 degrees.

Rectangle diagonals are equally equal and meet at the midpoint.

O is the circle's center, MNOP is its rectangle, and the circle's area is 100 in the diagram to the left.

Area of circle=πr²

100 π= πr²

r= 10 units

The length of the rectangle is equal to the radius of the circle is 10 units. The length of the diagonal is √2  times the side of the rectangle;

L=√2 R

L=1.414×10

L=14.14

Hence the length of the diagonal of the rectangle will be 14.142 units.
