Yes it is 104 games. You multiply it by .65 because if they win all games 160 x 1 would just be 160, or a perfect season. Since this team lost some games their percentage of wins wont be 1, it will be lower than 1. You multiply becuase when a number is lower than 1 it reduces the total not increases it. It is like the inverse.

104 games.
160 x 0.65 = 104

A college football coach has decided to recruit only the heaviest 15% of high school football players. He knows that high school

Alla [95]

Answer:

The coach should start recruiting players with weight 269.55 pounds or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 225 pounds

Standard Deviation, σ = 43 pounds

We are given that the distribution of weights is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.15

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.15$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43})=0.85$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$P(z < 1.036) = 0.85$

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 225}{43} = 1.036\\\\x = 269.548 \approx 269.55$

Thus, the coach should start recruiting players with weight 269.55 pounds or more.

Help me please what does x equal

Yuri [45]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

straight line is 180 degrees

110+?=180

?=70

y=90 because it is a right angle

All angles of a right triangle added equals 180

so 70+90=160

180-160=20

x=20
