Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle create two smaller triangles, all of which are similar to the original. This means corresponding sides are proportional.

3. Using the above relationship, ...

short-side/hypotenuse = 8/y = y/(8+23)

y^2 = 8·31

y = 2√62

long-side/hypotenuse = z/(8+23) = 23/z

z^2 = 23·31

z = √713

short-side/long-side = 8/x = x/23

x^2 = 8·23

x = 2√46

4. The picture is fuzzy, but we think the lengths are 25 and 5. If they're something else, use the appropriate numbers. Using the same relations we used for problem 3,

y = √(5·25) = 5√5 . . . . . . . = √(short segment × hypotenuse)

z = √(20·25) = 10√5 . . . . . = √(long segment × hypotenuse)

x = √(5·20) = 10 . . . . . . . . . = √(short segment × long segment)

Answer:

0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the average fill for the 100 drums is between 49.88 and 50.12 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
