y = 1/4p x²

Replace  x  with  −  x  and  y  with  − y  to check if there is x-axis, y-axis , or origin symmetry.  

Symmetric with respect to the y-axis

3. The adult men of the Dinaric Alps have the highest average height of all regions. The
ahrayia [7]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

  • 3 - a) The 40th percentile of the height of Dinaric Alps distribution for men is of 72.2 inches.
  • 3 - b) The minimum height of man in the Dinaric Alps that would place  him in the top 10% of all heights is of 76.84 inches.
  • 4 - a) The 25th percentile for the math scores was of 71.6 inches.
  • 4 - b) The 75th percentile for the math scores was of 78.4 inches.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution </h3>

In a <em>normal distribution </em>with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

  • It 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, which is the percentile of X.

Question 3:

  • The mean is of 73 inches, hence \mu = 73.
  • The standard deviation is of 3 inches, hence \sigma = 3.

Item a:

The 40th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.4, so <u>X when Z = -0.253</u>.

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

-0.253 = \frac{X - 73}{3}

X - 73 = -0.253(3)

X = 72.2

The 40th percentile of the height of Dinaric Alps distribution for men is of 72.2 inches.

Item b:

The minimum height is the 100 - 10 = 90th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so <u>X when Z = 1.28</u>.

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

1.28 = \frac{X - 73}{3}

X - 73 = 1.28(3)

X = 76.84

The minimum height of man in the Dinaric Alps that would place  him in the top 10% of all heights is of 76.84 inches.

Question 4:

  • The mean score is of 75, hence \mu = 75.
  • The standard deviation is of 5, hence \sigma = 5.

Item a:

The 25th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so <u>X when Z = -0.675</u>.

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

-0.675 = \frac{X - 75}{5}

X - 75 = -0.675(5)

X = 71.6

The 25th percentile for the math scores was of 71.6 inches.

Item b:

The 75th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so <u>X when Z = 0.675</u>.

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

0.675 = \frac{X - 75}{5}

X - 75 = 0.675(5)

X = 78.4

The 75th percentile for the math scores was of 78.4 inches.

Suppose that a factory manufactures only tables and chairs and that the profit on one chair is $15 and on the table is $20. Each
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The data we have is:

Profit per chair = $15

Profit per table = $20

Chair needs: 1 large pice, 2 small pieces.

Table needs: 2 large pieces, 2 small pieces.

You have 6 large pieces and 8 small pieces, and you want to maximize the profit.

Let's define:

T = # of tables

C = # of chairs.

Total profit:

P = C*$15 + M*$20

The number of chairs that you can make is given by:

0 ≤ C ≤ 4

If you make 4 chairs, the profit is:

P = 4*$15 = $60

And there will be 2 large pieces left.

Now for the tables.

0 ≤ T ≤ 3

If you make 4 tables, the profit will be:

P = 3*$20 = $60 (same as before)

And there will be two small pieces left.

Then we want to use a medium number of tables and chairs, we can not use the maximum for any of those, the first thing we should try is:

we ideally would want to use all the pieces that we have.

8 small, 6 large:

Then we can make:

2 tables: we use 4 large pieces and 4 small pieces.

T = 2

And we have left 2 large pieces and 4 small pieces.

The leftover is enough to make two chairs.

C = 2.

In this case, where we used all our materials, the profit will be:

P = 2*$15 + 2*$20 = $30 + $40 = $70

The profit is maximized when we make 2 tables and two chairs.
