<em>Answer:</em>

<em>1cm = 50 </em>

<em>2 cm = 50 x 2 </em>

<em>3cm = 50 x 3 </em>

<em>and the inverse:50m = 50/50 = 1cm </em>

<em>100m = 100/50 = 2cm </em>

<em>150m = 150/50 = 3cm </em>

<em>381m = 381/ </em>

Assume that human body temperatures are normally distributed with a mean of 98.22 degrees Upper F 98.22°F and a standard deviati

Anna35 [415]

Answer: 0.00102%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Human body temperatures are normally distributed with a mean of $\mu=98^{\circ}F$ and a standard deviation of $s=0.61^{\circ}F$

A hospital uses $100.6^{\circ}F$ as the lowest temperature considered to be a fever.

Let x be the random variable that represents the human body temperatures.

$z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{s}$

For x= 100.6, $z=\dfrac{100.6-98}{0.61}=4.26229508197\approx4.26$

Using normal distribution table for z-values for right-tailed area ,

P(x>100.6)= $P(Z>4.26)=0.0000102=0.00102\%$

Hence, the required probability = 0.00102%

At an art exhibition there are 12 paintings of which 10 are original. A visitor selects a painting at random and before decides

Reika [66]

Answer:

a) 0.8333

b) 0.75

c) 0.8181 or 0.9090

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The probability the visitor selects an authentic painting is

10/12 = 0.8333

b)

Since the opinion of the expert does not depend on your choice, the events are <em>independent</em>, so the probability that the expert says is authentic and it really is, is

0.8333*0.9 = 0.75

c)

If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is not, then there are 11 paintings of which 9 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is

9/11= 0.8181

If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is, then there are 11 paintings of which 10 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is

10/11= 0.9090

37 For a class picnic, two teachers went to the same store to purchase drinks. One teacher purchased 18 juice boxes and 32 bottl

Pavel [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j represent the cost of a juice box.

Let w represent the cost of a bottle of water.

One teacher purchased 18 juice boxes and 32 bottles of water, and spent $19.92.. This means that

18j + 32w = 19.92 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

The other teacher purchased 14 juice boxes and 26 bottles of water, and spent $15.76. This means that

14j + 26w = 15.76- - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 14 and equation 2 by 18, it becomes

252j + 448w = 278.88

252j + 468w = 283.68

Subtracting, it becomes

- 20j = - 4.8

j = - 4.8/- 20 = 0.24

Substituting j = 0.24 into equation 1, it becomes

18 × 0.24 + 32w = 19.92

4.32 + 32w = 19.92

32w = 19.92 - 4.32 = 15.6

w = 15.6/32 = 0.4875

Kara's prices are incorrect.

the cost of a juice box is $0.24

the cost of a bottle of water is $0.4875
