A lake near the Arctic Circle is covered by a 222-meter-thick sheet of ice during the cold winter months. When spring arrives, t

he warm air gradually melts the ice, causing its thickness to decrease at a constant rate. After 333 weeks, the sheet is only 1.251.251, point, 25 meters thick. Let S(t)S(t)S, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis denote the ice sheet's thickness SSS (measured in meters) as a function of time ttt (measured in weeks).

S(t) = 3.82 - 0.2t


Step-by-step explanation:


After 7 weeks, the ice is 2.42 meters thick. The ice loses 0.2 meters of thickness per week; this means on the 7th week, it has lost 7(0.2) = 1.4 meters of thickness.


This means the ice started at 2.42+1.4 = 3.82 meters thick.


Our function will start at the original thickness of the ice, 3.82 meters.


Since the ice is losing thickness, we will subtract; it loses at a rate of 0.2 meters per week (t), which gives us 0.2t. This is subtracted from the original, 3.82 meters, giving us


S(t) = 3.82 - 0.2t

Or a very large set of data the measured mean is found to be 288.6 with a standard deviation of 21.2. assuming the data to be no
SashulF [63]

The 68-95-99.7 rule tells us 68% of the probability is between -1 standard deviation and +1 standard deviation from the mean. So we expect 75% corresponds to slightly more than 1 standard deviation.

Usually the unit normal tables don't report the area between -σ and σ but instead a cumulative probability, the area between -∞ and σ. 75% corresponds to 37.5% in each half so a cumulative probability of 50%+37.5%=87.5%. We look that up in the normal table and get σ=1.15.

So we expect 75% of normally distributed data to fall within μ-1.15σ and μ+1.15σ

That's 288.6 - 1.15(21.2) to 288.6 + 1.15(21.2)

Answer: 264.22 to 312.98

5. A gardening club has 21 members, of which 13 are males and the rest are
Misha Larkins [42]

If you know that there are 21 members and 13 are females, if you subtract 13 from 21, you will get 8. There are 8 females in the gardening club.

Now you have to figure out the ratio to females to all club members. You already know that there are 8 females and 21 club members. The ratio would be 8:21.

I hope you found this helpful :)

5x^{4}-7x^{3}-5x^{2}+5x+1-0
den301095 [7]

Answer:

5x^4 -7x^3-5x^2+5x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey!

You would just add all the numbers up, and by making sure that you combine all like terms. In this case it is just 1-0 = 1 and so the solution would be the same as your question but with a 1 and you would get rid of the -0.

Hope this helps!
