Given parameters:

Weight of Tan = 146pounds

Unknown:

Weight of Minh = ?

Following this problem step wisely, we can derive a solvable algebraic equation;

Let the weight of Minh = M

In the second sentence, we see that Minh weighs 15pounds more than Tan;

So;

M = 15 + Weight of Tan

Since we already know the weight of Tan,

Weight of Minh = 15 + 146 = 161pounds

We clearly see that Minh's weight will be 161 pounds.

If the average yield of cucumber acre is 800 kg, with a variance 1600 kg, and that the amount of the cucumber follows the normal

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The percentage is

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%$

The probability is $P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 800$

The variance is $var(x) = 1600 \ kg$

The range consider is $x_1 = 778 \ kg \ x_2 = 834 \ kg$

The value consider in second question is $x = 900 \ kg$

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \sqrt{var (x)}$

substituting value

$\sigma = \sqrt{1600}$

$\sigma = 40$

The percentage of a cucumber give the crop amount between 778 and 834 kg is mathematically represented as

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{x_1 - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } < \frac{x_2 - \mu }{\sigma } )$

Generally $\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } = Z (standardized \ value \ of \ X)$

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{778 - 800 }{40} < Z< \frac{834 - 800 }{40 } )$

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P(z_2 < 0.85) - P(z_1 < -0.55)$

From the z-table the value for $P(z_1 < 0.85) = 0.80234$

and $P(z_1 < -0.55) = 0.29116$

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.80234 - 0.29116$

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.51118$

The percentage is

$P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%$

The probability of cucumber give the crop exceed 900 kg is mathematically represented as

$P(X > x ) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma } )$

substituting values

$P(X > x ) = P( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } >\frac{900 - 800 }{40 } )$

$P(X > x ) = P(Z >2.5 )$

From the z-table the value for $P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097$

Determine whether the ratios 35 feet every 15 seconds and 7 feet every 2 seconds are equivalent.

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rate of those two statements:

28 ÷ 16 = 1.75

1.75 ft per seconds

7 ÷ 4 = 1.75

1.75 ft per seconds

Two statements have the same rate, therefore 28 feet every 16 seconds and 7 feet every 4 seconds are equivalent
