12,900 BTU's are required to cool the room effectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

We must calculate the area of the entire shape to determine the minimum BTU's required to cool the room effectively.

It is made up of a semi-circle a rectangle, and a trapezoid.

Step 2:

The area of a semi-circle $=\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} .$

Here, the diameter is 20 feet so the radius is 10 feet.

The area of the semi-circle $=\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} =\frac{ (\pi) (10^{2}) }{2} = 157.079$ square feet.

The area of a rectangle $= (l)(w).$

The length of the rectangle is 22 feet and the width is 20 feet.

The area of a rectangle $= (l)(w) =(22)(20) = 440$ square feet.

The area of a trapezoid $=\frac{a+b}{2} (h).$

Here $a=12, b= 20, h= 3$ .

The area of a trapezoid $=\frac{12+20}{2} (3) = 48$ square feet.

Step 3:

The total area of the floor plan $=157.079+440+48 = 645.079$ square feet.

If 20 BTU's are required for a single square foot,

The number of BTU's for 645.079 square feet $= (645.079)(20)=12,901.58$ BTU's.

Rounding this off, we get 12,900 BTU's required to cool the room effectively.

You work for a city department which is hosting a 5 kilometer run. Your coworker measured the course and doing that it is only 4

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

820 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the rule of three in this scenario since this is a ratio problem with one unknown. To do this we simply multiply the diagonal values and divide by the final value. We know that there are a total of 3280.84 ft in a single kilometer, therefore...

1 km == 3280.84 ft

0.25 == x

(0.25 * 3280.84) / 1 = 820.21

Now we can see that there are 820.21 ft in the 0.25 kilometers. If we round this to the nearest foot we would round down to a total of 820 feet.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

a) $P(\bar X$

b) $P(98$

c) $P(\bar X$

d) $P(93$

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 heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(99.9,30)$

Where $\mu=99.9$ and $\sigma=30$

We select a random sample of n=36. And from the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu =99.9 , \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}= \frac{30}{\sqrt{38}}=4.87)$

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

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

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

$P(\bar X$

$=P(Z$

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(98$

$=P(\frac{98-99.9}{\frac{30}{\sqrt{38}}}$

And we can find this probability on this way:

$P(-0.39$

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

$P(-0.39$

Part c

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

$P(\bar X$

$P(\bar X$

Part d

For this case we want this probability:

$P(93$

$=P(\frac{93-99.9}{\frac{30}{\sqrt{38}}}$

And we can find this probability on this way:

$P(-1.42$

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

$P(-1.42$
