Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C and D dont go into 48 AND 136 evenly. B is the largest one there that goes into both 48 AND 136.

ta-da! :P

The answer is B

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

8 x 17 = 136

why isn't it C or D?

For C, 8 x 3 = 24 (throwing the 8 in there because the expression is the same as B).

24 x 2 = 48, but 24 x 5 = 120 and 24 x 6 = 144.

It's also the same reason why it's not D, except that the expression goes WAY into the 400's

Water use in the summer is normally distributed with a mean of 311.4 million gallons per day and a standard deviation of 40 mill

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: 0.965

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Water use in the summer is normally distributed with

$\mu=311.4\text{ million gallons per day}$

$\sigma=40 \text{ million gallons per day}$

Let X be the random variable that represents the quantity of water required on a particular day.

Z-score : $\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$\dfrac{350-311.4}{40}=0.965$

Now, the probability that a day requires more water than is stored in city reservoirs is given by:-

$P(x>350)=P(z>0.965)=1-P(z$

We can see that on comparing the above value to the given P(X > 350)= 1 - P(Z < b) , we get the value of b is 0.965.

Answer:

a) x = -3

b) y = (28/27)x -27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) College street has a slope of 0, so is a horizontal line. 2nd Ave is perpendicular, so is a vertical line, described by an equation of the form ...

x = constant

For 2nd Ave to intersect the point (-3, 1), the constant must match that x-coordinate. The equation is ...

x = -3

b) Since Ace Rd is perpendicular to Davidson St, its slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the slope of Davidson St. The slope of Ace Rd is ...

m = -1/(-27/28) = 28/27

Using the point-slope equation for a line, we can model Ace Rd as ...

y -y1 = m(x -x1)

y -1 = (28/27)(x -27)

y = (28/27)x -27
