Answer:

99.1 is the 90th percentile of these scores.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 85

Standard Deviation, σ = 11

We are given that the distribution of score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.90

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 85}{11})=0.90  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(z \leq 1.282) = 0.90

Putting values, we get,

\displaystyle\frac{x - 85}{11} = 1.282\\\\x = 99.1

Thus, 99.1 is the 90th percentile of these scores.

The diagram shows the net of a juice box. The box is a rectangular prism.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

269.6 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

The diagram shows the net of a juice box. the box is a rectangular prism. what is the surface area of the juice box? 6.4 cm 4 cm 10.5 cm

we know that

The surface area of a rectangular prism is equal to

SA=2B+PH

where

B is the area of the base

P is the perimeter of the base

H is the height of the prism

we have

L=6.4\ cm\\W=4\ cm\\H=10.5\ cm

<em>Find the area of the base B</em>

B=LW

substitute the given values

B=(6.4)(4)=25.6\ cm^2

<em>Find the perimeter of the base P</em>

P=2(L+W)

substitute the given values

P=2(6.4+4)=20.8\ cm

<em>Find the surface area</em>

SA=2B+PH

substitute  

SA=2(25.6)+(20.8)10.5=269.6\ cm^2
