Answer:

The number of standard deviations from $1,158 to $1,360 is 1.68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 1158, \sigma = 120

The number of standard deviations from $1,158 to $1,360 is:

This is Z when X = 1360. So

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

Z = \frac{1360 - 1158}{120}

Z = 1.68

The number of standard deviations from $1,158 to $1,360 is 1.68.

Solve for w.<br><br> 5w + 9z = 2z + 3w
DIA [1.3K]
When solving for a variable, you get the variable you're trying to solve for on one side and everything to the opposite of that variable.

We have the equation <span>5w + 9z = 2z + 3w.

Usually the variable we're solving for we want on the left. But it's fine to have it on the right side, too.

Let's subtract 9z from the left-hand side. That way, the 5w will be alone on the left-hand side.

And remember, anything we do on one side we do to the other side.

</span><span>5w + 9z - 9z = 2z + 3w - 9z
</span><span>5w = -7z + 3w

The 3w term on the right-hand side needs to be removed. So, subtract each side by 3w.

5w - 3w = -7z + 3w - 3w
2w = -7z

Now, we need to divide each side by 2 to see what the w variable is equal to.

2w / 2 = -7z / 2
w = -7z / 2 or w = -3.5z

So, w is equal to -3.5z.

You roll two fair dice, a green one and a red one.
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

(a) yes

(b) 1/36

(c) 1/36

(d) 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) yes they are independent as the outcome of one does not affect the outcome of the other.

(b) As the dice are fair, each possible number (1 through 6) has the same probability of being rolled.

P(1 on green die) = 1/6

P(2 on red die) = 1/6

Therefore, P(1 on green die) AND P(2 on red die) = 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

(c) Again, as the dice are fair, each possible number (1 through 6) has the same probability of being rolled.

P(2 on green die) = 1/6

P(1 on red die) = 1/6

Therefore, P(2 on green die) AND P(1 on red die) = 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

(d) p[(1 on green die and 2 on red die) OR (2 on green die and 1 on red die)

= 1/36 + 1/36

= 2/36

= 1/18

What is the actual height of the building shown in the model?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The actual height is 150ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Width : Height = 2cm : 5cm

Actual\ width = 60ft

Required

Determine the actual height

Substitute 60ft for width in: Width : Height = 2cm : 5cm

60ft:Height =2cm:5cm

Express as fraction

\frac{60ft}{Height} =\frac{2cm}{5cm}

\frac{60ft}{Height} =\frac{2}{5}

Make height the subject

Height = \frac{5}{2} * 60ft

Height = 5 * 30ft

Height = 150ft
