Answer:

The length of side b is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are similar if they have the same shape, but can be different sizes.

When two figures are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.

If you know that two objects are similar, you can use proportions and cross products to find the length of an unknown side. We know that the triangle $ABC$ is similar to the triangle $XYZ$ . Therefore the following relation must be true:

$\frac{AB}{AC} =\frac{XY}{XZ}$

We know that side $AB$ is equal to 8, side $AC$ is equal to b, side $XY$ is equal to $2\frac{2}{3}$ , and side $XZ$ is equal to 3.

Substituting these values into the above relation and solving for b we get that:

$\frac{8}{b} =\frac{2\frac{2}{3} }{3}\\\\\mathrm{Convert\:mixed\:numbers\:to\:improper\:fractions}:\quad 2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{8}{3}\\\\\frac{8}{b}=\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{3}\\\\8\cdot \:3=b\frac{8}{3}\\\\24=b\frac{8}{3}\\\\8b=72\\\\b=9$

The diameters of ball bearings are distributed normally. The mean diameter is 123 millimeters and the standard deviation is 4 mi

Mrac [35]

Answer:

0.0668

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 123, \sigma = 4$
