Answer: 0.0035

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The readings on thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0 degrees C and a standard deviation of 1.00 degrees C.

i.e.  \mu=0 and \sigma= 1  

Let x denotes the readings on thermometers.

Then, the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads greater than 2.17 will be :_

P(X>2.7)=1-P(\xleq2.7)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{2.7-0}{1})\\\\=1-P(z\leq2.7)\ \ [\because\ z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-0.9965\ \ [\text{By z-table}]\ \\\\=0.0035

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads greater than 2.17 = 0.0035

The required region is attached below .

For a few months, the function f(x)=15(3)^x represented the number of bees in a new hive x months from the time it was started.
vovangra [49]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A (b) ^ x
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 x: time (in months)
 We have the following equation:
 f (x) = 15 (3) ^ x
 We observed that:
 b = 3
 Therefore, the number of bees triples each month.
 Answer:
 
b = 3
 
the number of bees triples each month.

Answer: 300 calories

Step-by-step explanation: let us assume that moving at any speed expends approximately 100 calories per mile. Moving a less-minute mile will burn a few more calories than moving a high-minute mile because of the added effort. Since the minutes for the 3 scenarios are the Same, then we can conclude that he is burning calorie at the same level in which the total equal to 300 calories
