Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

Use sine:

$sine=\dfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$

We have a measure of the angle and length of the hypotenuse:

$\alpha=29^o,\ hypotenuse=500\ ft$

$\sin29^o\approx0.48481$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{y}{500}=0.48481$ <em>multiply both sides by 500</em>

$y=242.405\to y\approx242.4$

PLEASE HELP ME WITH BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS THIS IS DUE SOON PLEASE HELP ME

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2width + 2length

8x = 2x + 2 length; 8x-2x = 2 length; 6x=2 length

length = 3x

sides= 1/4 of 3x = 3x/4

perimeter of square = 4* side = 4*3x/4 = 3x

x= 4

P rectangle =8x= 8*4= 32

P square = 3x = 3*4 = 12

32-12 = 20 cm greater is the P rectangle than P of square

A rectangle = 2x*x = 2*4*4 = 32

A square =(3x/4)² = (3*4/4)² = 9

32-9 = 23 cm² greater is the A rectangle than A of square

4Comic+1 Nonfiction

4comic = 8y so 1 comic = 2y

1 nonfiction = (3+7y)+ 2y

1 nonfiction = 7y+2y+3 = 9y+3

total= 8y+9y+3 = 17y+3

if y=4

total = 17*4 +3 = $71

For a normal distribution with μ=500 and σ=100, what is the minimum score necessary to be in the top 60% of the distribution?

STatiana [176]

Answer:

475.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for a normal distribution with μ=500 and σ=100. We are asked to find the minimum score that is necessary to be in the top 60% of the distribution.

We will use z-score formula and normal distribution table to solve our given problem.

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

Top 60% means greater than 40%.

Let us find z-score corresponding to normal score to 40% or 0.40.

Using normal distribution table, we got a z-score of $-0.25$ .

Upon substituting our given values in z-score formula, we will get:

$-0.25=\frac{x-500}{100}$

$-0.25*100=\frac{x-500}{100}*100$

$-25=x-500$

$-25+500=x-500+500$

$x=475$

Therefore, the minimum score necessary to be in the top 60% of the distribution is 475.
