The equation 9(u – 2) + 1.5u = 8.25 models the total miles Michael traveled one afternoon while sledding, where u equals the num

Eliminating parentheses gives
  10.5u -18 = 8.25
  10.5u = 26.25
  u = 2.5

The value of u is 2.5.

_____
What fun! Michael spent 2.5 hours walking up the hill for 0.5 hour of time sledding down.

The number of major earthquakes in a year is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 20.8 and a standard deviation of
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a) 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be 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 = 20.8, \sigma = 4.5

a) Find the probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 21. So

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

Z = \frac{21 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.04

Z = 0.04 has a pvalue of 0.5160.

So there is a 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) Find the probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 23 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 18. So:

X = 23

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

Z = \frac{23 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.71

Z = 0.71 has a pvalue of 0.7611

X = 18

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

Z = \frac{18 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = -0.62

Z = -0.62 has a pvalue of 0.2676

So there is a 0.7611 - 0.2676 = 0.4935 = 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

Provide an Example of how to draw transformed figures that are translated, reflected, and rotated.
solniwko [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Translations: When a figure is slid to another place on the coordinate grid (for example if i asked you to move the figure 2 units down and 4 units to the left)

Reflected: When a figure is reflected across the y-axis or the x-axis and both figures are congruent to each other.

Rotated: When a figure is rotated (for example if i asked you to rotate the figure 90 degrees)
