$\frac{3}{5} + \frac{3}{5} + \frac{3}{5} = \frac{9}{5} = 1 \frac{4}{5} 
$

3/5+3/5+3/5=9/5=1 4/5

A line segment has endpoints P(-1,5)and Q(5,2) find the coordinate of that trisect the segment

musickatia [10]

Answer:

(1, 6). The second is (-1 + 2 + 2, 1 + 1 + 1), or (3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Moving from P to Q, we see that x increases by 6 and y increases by 3.

"Trisect" means "divide into three equal subintervals."

We find (1/3) of 6 (which comes out to 2) and (1/3) of 3 (which comes out to 1).

Thus, the first junction (between 1st and 2nd trisection) is (-1 + 2, 5 + 1), or (1, 6). The second is (-1 + 2 + 2, 1 + 1 + 1), or (3, 3)

Weights of the vegetables in a field are normally distributed. From a sample Carl Cornfield determines the mean weight of a box

pantera1 [17]

To find the z-score for a weight of 196 oz., use

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{196-180}{8}=\frac{16}{8}=2$

A table for the cumulative distribution function for the normal distribution (see picture) gives the area 0.9772 BELOW the z-score z = 2. Carl is wondering about the percentage of boxes with weights ABOVE z = 2. The total area under the normal curve is 1, so subtract .9772 from 1.0000.

1.0000 - .9772 = 0.0228, so about 2.3% of the boxes will weigh more than 196 oz.
