According to some study, the height for Northern European adult males is normally distributed with an average of 181 centimeter

and a standard deviation of 7.3 centimeter. Suppose such an adult male is randomly chosen. Let X be height of that person. The next 2 questions correspond to this information. The answer may be rounded up to 3 decimal places of the actual value.
a) The probability that the person is between 160 and 170 centimeters is

b) The probability that the person is higher than 190 centimeter is

Please state how you determined the probability from the standard normal table.

Answer:

0.0635,0.1093

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that according to some study, the height for Northern European adult males is normally distributed with an average of 181 centimeter and a standard deviation of 7.3 centimeter.

Suppose such an adult male is randomly chosen.

Let X be height of that person.

X is N*(171,7.3)

a) The probability that the person is between 160 and 170 centimeters is

=P(160

Take any std normal table where prob are given from 0 to 3

Since symmetrical we take the prob for 1.51 and 2.88 and find the difference

= 0.4980-0.4345

=0.0635

b) The probability that the person is higher than 190 centimeter is

=P(X>190)\\= P(Z>1.23)

= 0.5-value corresponding to 1.23

= 0.5-0.3907

=0.1093

What is the answer 2(4y+1)=3y
SCORPION-xisa [38]
2(4y+1) = 3y. We need to solve for y.
First let's get ride of the parenthesis by developing 2(4y+1). This means to multiply 2 by 4y and 2 by 1, and add them.
2(4y+1) = 2*4y + 2*1 = 8y + 2
So 2(4y+1)=3y
8y+2 = 3y
Then you subtract 8y from each side to have the variables on a side and the numbers on the other:
3y - 8y = 8y + 2 - 8y
-5y = 2
Then you divide each side by -5 to get the variable y alone on a side and its value on the other:
(-5y)/-5 = 2/-5
y = -2/5

You can re-check your answer (very important):
2(4y + 1) = 2(4*-2/5 + 1) = -1.2
3y = 3 * -2/5 = -1.2
So 2(4y+1)=3y= -1.2
The answer has been approved.

Hope this Helps! :)

Find the area. Round to the nearest hundredth when necessary. Be sure you are showing all work to find each figure.
eimsori [14]

<u>Additional requirements in figure</u> :-

Mark point :-

  • A
  • B
  • C
  • D
  • E

Draw a straight line from E to AB .

And the point line joins mark it as "F" .

It will generate quadrilateral FBCD.

we get to know In quadrilateral left angle is 90°

How ?

{

proof :

As three angles are given 90° So third angle will also be 90°

Reason:

→ Sum of interior angles = 2 (no. of angles - 2 × 180°

→Sum of interior angles = (4-2 × 180°)

→Sum of interior angles = (2 × 180°)

→Sum of interior angles = 360°

}

<u>✿</u><u>Now let the left angle be </u><u>x</u>

  • 90° +90° + 90° + x = 360°
  • 180° + 90° + x = 360°
  • 270° + x = 360
  • x = 360° - 270°
  • x = 90°

<u>we know</u> :

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

STEPS :

  • Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

  • Area of rectangle = 7 × 8

  • Area of rectangle = 56 in²

<u>Now let's find EF</u> :

  • EF = BD - EC

  • EF = 7 - 4

  • EF = 3 in

<u>To find A</u>

<u>F</u> :

  • A•F = AB - CD

  • A•F = 12 - 8

  • A•F = 4 in

<u>In triangle AFE</u>:

  • EF is base of triangle
  • A•F is height of triangle

We know :

<u>Area of triangle =(</u><u> </u><u>Height</u><u> </u><u>×</u><u> </u><u>Base)/2</u>

Steps :

  • Area of triangle = (Height × Base)/2
  • Area of triangle = (4 × 3)/2
  • Area of triangle = 12/2
  • Area of triangle = 6 in²

<u>To find area of figure</u> :

  • Area of figure = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle
  • Area of figure = 56 + 6
  • Area of figure = 62 in²

Why is this false:
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

It is false that, if the national economy shrank at an annual rate of 9% per year for three consecutive years then the economy shrank by 27% over the 3-year period, because this percentage does not follow a linear path, but on the contrary, it is calculated exponentially: 9% of each year is calculated on the rest that remained after discounting 9% the previous year.

Thus, if the national economy has a value of 100, after three years it will not have a value of 79, but a value of 75.35, as it arises from the following calculation:

100 x 0.91 ^ 3 = X

100 x 0.753571 = X

75.35 = X
