A survey found that​ women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.2 in. and standard deviation 2.4 in. The survey also

found that​ men's heights are normally distributed with a mean 67.2 in. and standard deviation 2.7. Complete parts a through c below. a. Most of the live characters at an amusement park have height requirements with a minimum of 4 ft 9 in. and a maximum of 6 ft 2 in. Find the percentage of women meeting the height requirement?

Answer: 99.51%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A survey found that​ women's heights are normally distributed.

Population mean : \mu =63.2  \text{ inches}

Standard deviation: \sigma= 2.4\text{ inches}

Minimum height = 4ft. 9 in.=4\times12+9\text{ in.}=57\text{ in.}

Maximum height = 6ft. 2 in.=6\times12+2\text{ in.}=74\text{ in.}

Let x be the random variable that represent the women's height.

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x=57, we have

z=\dfrac{57-63.2}{2.4}\approx-2.58

For x=74, we have

z=\dfrac{74-63.2}{2.4}\approx4.5

Now, by using the standard normal distribution table, we have

The probability of women meeting the height requirement :-

P(-2.58

Hence, the percentage of women meeting the height requirement = 99.51%

Find two numbers such that the sum of their squares is 100. The square of the larger number is equal to the sum of the product o
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y are two  numbers

According to question

x^2+y^2=100....(1)

Suppose x is larger than y

x^2=x(4y+8x)

x=4y+8x

x-8x=4y

-7x=4y

y=-\frac{7}{4}x

Substitute the value of y

x^2+(-\frac{7}{4}x)^2=100

x^2+\frac{49}{16}x^2=100

\frac{16x^2+49x^2}{16}=100

\frac{65}{16}x^2=100

x^2=\frac{16\times 100}{65}

x=\sqrt{\frac{1600}{65}}=\frac{40}{\sqrt{65}}=\frac{40}{65}\sqrt{65}=\frac{8}{13}\sqrt{65}

y=-\frac{7}{4}\times \frac{8}{13}\sqrt{65}=-\frac{14}{13}\sqrt{65}

Answer:

Read explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A)The slope is the number before the X so 0.25, this represents the amount of money people have to pay for each mile driven over 150 miles.

B) The y-intercept is the number after the X so 32, this number represents the amount people have to pay rent the car before actually using it.
