The longer base of a trapezoid is 8 ft. The longer base of a similar trapezoid is 13 ft. The area of the smaller trapezoid is 24

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

390 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The longer base of a trapezoid is 8 ft. The longer base of a similar trapezoid is 13 ft. The area of the smaller trapezoid is 240 ft² What is the area of the larger trapezoid?

We solve the above question using proportion

(Longer base/Area of trapezoid) smaller trapezoid = (Longer base/Area of trapezoid) bigger trapezoid

Let the the Area of the bigger trapezoid = x

Hence,

= 8ft/240ft = 13ft/x ft

Cross Multiply

8ft × x = 240ft × 13ft

x = 240ft² × 12 ft/8 ft

x = 390 ft²

A game is played with a spinner on a circle, like the minute hand on a clock. The circle is marked evenly from 0 to 100, so, for

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The probability is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The time a person is given corresponds to a uniform distribution with values between 0 and 100. The mean of this distribution is 0+100/2 = 50 and the variance is (100-0)²/12 = 833.3.

When we take 100 players we are taking 100 independent samples from this same random variable. The mean sample, lets call it X, has equal mean but the variance is equal to the variance divided by the length of the sample, hence it is 833.3/100 = 8.333.

As a consecuence of the Central Limit Theorem, the mean sample (taken from independant identically distributed random variables) has distribution Normal with parameters μ = 50, σ= 8.333. We take the standarization of X, calling it W, whose distribution is Normal Standard, in other words

$W = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} = \frac{X - 50}{8.333} \simeq N(0,1)$

The values of the cummulative distribution of the Standard Normal distribution, lets denote it $\phi$ , are tabulated and they can be found in the attached file, We want to know when X is above 50, we can solve that by using the standarization
