Answer: The answer is 21.25 pounds.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the weight of Akoala is 20 pounds. Also, she is carrying her joey with her having weight 20 ounces. We need to find the combined weight of the adult Akoala and her joey in ounces.

For that, first we need to conver ounces to pounds.

We know

1~\textup{pound}=16~\textup{ounces}\\\\\Rightarrow 1~\textup{ounce}=\dfrac{1}{16}~\textup{pounds}\\\\\Rightarrow 20~\textup{ounces}=\dfrac{1}{16}\times 20=\dfrac{5}{4}=1.25~\textup{pounds.}

Therefore, the combined weight is given by

W=20+1.25=21.25~\textup{pounds.}

Thus, the answer is 21.25 pounds.

Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 22 days and
Alika [10]

Answer:

25.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of days (μ) = 22 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 6 days

Z-score for the 72nd percentile (according to tabulated values) = 0.583

The z-score for any number of days, X, is determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of X that is greater than 72% of the trial times is:

0.583=\frac{X-22}{6}\\ X=25.5\ days

Therefore, 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within 25.5 days.

Angles
coldgirl [10]
<h3>Answer: XWY and STR</h3>

I tend to think of parallel lines as train tracks (the metal rail part anyway). Inside the train tracks is the interior region, while outside the train tracks is the exterior region. Alternate exterior angles are found here. Specifically they are angles that are on opposite or alternate sides of the transversal cut.

Both pairs of alternate exterior angles are shown in the diagram below. They are color coded to help show how they pair up and which are congruent.

A thing to notice: choices B, C, and D all have point W as the vertex of the angles. This means that the angles somehow touch or are adjacent in some way due to this shared vertex point. However, alternate exterior angles never touch because parallel lines never do so either. We can rule out choices B,C,D from this reasoning alone. We cannot have both alternate exterior angles on the same exterior side of the train tracks. Both sides must be accounted for.

In a statistics​ class, the standard deviation of the heights of all students was 3.8 inches. The standard deviation of the heig
goblinko [34]

Answer:

The reason why standard deviation of the entire class is greater than standard deviation of males and females considered separately, is that mean values for males and females are different from each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of mean is well represented by the following formula

mean = \frac{(x1 + x2 + x3 + ..... + xn)}{N}, where x1, x2, xn are the observations and N is the number of observations (population).

Standard deviation represents the distance between each observation and the mean of the population (all observations). The formula for this parameter is:

Standard deviation =√[((x1 - x)² + (x2-x)² + ....+ (xn-x)²)/N-1], where x1, x2,..., xn are the observations and x is the mean value.

In this case you have that each height registered is an observation and the number of observations represents the N value. As you can see if the mean for males is different from that of females their standard deviation will be different too. Usually males have heigths greater than that of females (1.77 vs 1.64, in USA for example), and heights inside each group will be more similar than between groups. Then, when you mix all observation there will be an increase in standard deviation, because you are mixing very different heigths
