A square piece of fabric has side length 2.2 cm. Find the area of the piece of fabric.

Heights of Women. Heights of adult women are distributed normally with a mean of 162 centimeters and a standard deviation of 8 c

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

a) 6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters

b) 58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 162, \sigma = 8$

a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 150. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{150 - 162}{8}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters

b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 180 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 160.

X = 180

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{180 - 162}{8}$

$Z = 2.25$

$Z = 2.25$ has a pvalue of 0.9878

X = 160

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{160 - 162}{8}$

$Z = -0.25$

$Z = -0.25$ has a pvalue of 0.4013

0.9878 - 0.4013 = 0.5865

58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

A number divided by three less two is at most two

Marina CMI [18]

x ≤ 12

Solution:

Let us take the number be x.

A number : x

A number divided by three : $$\frac{x}{3}$

A number divided by three less two : $$\frac{x}{3}-2$

A number divided by three less two is at most two : $$\frac{x}{3}-2\leq 2$

Now, simplify the inequality,

$$\Rightarrow\frac{x}{3}-2\leq 2$

Add 2 on both sides of the inequality,

$$\Rightarrow\frac{x}{3}-2+2\leq 2+2$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{x}{3}\leq 4$

Multiply by 3 on both sides of the equation,

$$\Rightarrow\frac{x}{3}\times3\leq 4\times3$

$$\Rightarrow x\leq 12$

Hence x ≤ 12.

Julli [10]

Answer: -120

Step-by-step explanation:

this would be the answer because if you take a positive and add it to a negative you get zero if their the additive inverse of the number.

Chase has been playing a game where he can create towns and help his empire expand. Each town he has allows him to create 1.13 t

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Well the way I see it is he started with 4 villager so I would see the equation to be

1.13x times 17+4 would equal the amount of villagers he could have which would be 23.21 as for the equation it would be 1.13x times 17 plus four equals the number of villagers total
