There are two triangles, a big triangle and a small triangle that is inside the big triangle. Because the base of the triangles are parallel to each other( indicated by the arrow), and the small triangle is perfectly inside the bigger triangle, the sides of the triangles are proportional.

It is know that the base of the small triangle is 3.5, and the hypotenuse of the small triangle is 7cm. it is also known that the the hypotenuse of the big triangle is (7+8)=15 and the base of the big triangle is unknown.

Since the triangles are proportional,
to find the base of the big triangle

base(big)/hypotenuse(big)=base(small)/hypotenuse(small)

Plug in the numbers

x/15=3.5/7
x/15=1/2
x=15/2
x=7.5

The length of the base of the big triangle is 7.5cm

A consensus forecast is the average of a large number of individual analysts' forecasts. Suppose the individual forecasts for a

zaharov [31]

Answer:

a) $P(X>3.5)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{3.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{3.5-5}{1.2})=P(z>-1.25)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>-1.25)=1-P(z$

b) $P(X$

And we can find this probability uing the normal standard table:

$P(z$

c) $P(3.5$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(-1.25$

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(-1.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(5,1.2)$

Where $\mu=5$ and $\sigma=1.2$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>3.5)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X>3.5)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{3.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{3.5-5}{1.2})=P(z>-1.25)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule:

$P(z>-1.25)=1-P(z$

Part b

We are interested on this probability

$P(X$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X$

And we can find this probability uing the normal standard table:

$P(z$

Part c

$P(3.5$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(-1.25$

And in order to find these probabilities we can use tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(-1.25$

Solve for w. -22w-5)+5w-5(w+4) Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Anna [14]

Answer: −22w−25

Step-by-step explanation: Distribute:

=−22w+−5+5w+(−5)(w)+(−5)(4)

=−22w+−5+5w+−5w+−20

Combine Like Terms:

=−22w+−5+5w+−5w+−20

=(−22w+5w+−5w)+(−5+−20)

=−22w+−25
