Answer:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = 79.052%f using Standard Normal Distribution Tables

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu = 14, SD = 1.2 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=17: z(17) = (17-14)/1.2 gives us z(17) = 2.5

z for x=13: z(13) = (13-14)/1.2 gives us z(13) = -0.83

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables we find the probabilities as under:

P(17) using z(17) = 2.5 gives us P(17) = 99.379%

Similarly we have:

P(13) using z(13) = -0.83 gives us P(13) = 20.327%

Finally in order to find out the probability between 17 & 13 years we have:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = P(17) - P(13) = 99.379% - 20.327% = 79.052%

The standard normal distribution table is being attached for yours easiness.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(17) = norm.dist(17,14,1.2,1)

P(13) = norm.dist(13,14,1.2,1)

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = { P(17) - P(13) } * 100

Prove algebraically that (m + 2)2 – m 2 – 12 is always a multiple of 4
Julli [10]

Answer:

(m + 2)^{2} - m^{2}  - 12 = 4(m - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Write the expression

(m+2)^{2} - m^{2}  - 12

Step 2: Expand (m + 2)^{2}

(m+2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12\\(m+2)(m+2) - m^{2}  - 12\\m^{2} + 2m + 2m + 4 - m^{2}  - 12

Step 3: Collect similar terms

m^{2}  - m^{2}  + 4m + 4 - 12\\4m - 8

Step 4: Factor 4 out of the expression to prove that the expression is a multiple of 4.

Therefore\\4m - 8 = 4(m - 2)\\Hence,\\(m+2)^{2}  - m^{2} -  12 is a multiply of 4 because the expression is equal to 4(m-2)

Jesse has a storage container in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The volume of the container is 43.875 cubic meters, the
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The height is 2.25 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a right rectangular prism is the product of the length, width, and height. So it would be V=w*l*h.

Because you have been given the values of the volume, width, and length, you can plug in those values into the equation to find the height. It should look like this: 43.875=5 * 3.9 * h

Then you can divide both sides of the equation by 5 * 3.9.

So... 43.875/(5*3.9)=h

therefore h= 2.25.

hope this explanation makes sense!
