QveST [7]

30 + 45 =75
3 + 1 = 4
There are 60 minutes in one hour, so 75 minutes is equal to 1 hour and 15 minutes.

4 + 1 = 5

Evaluate x + y when x = -94 and y = 24<br><br>A: -118<br>B: -70<br>C: 70<br>D: 118​
malfutka [58]
It’s b because 94 is negative so that means you have to subtract to get -70

In college​ basketball, a shot made from beyond a designated arc radiating about 20 ft from the basket is worth three points ins
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution would be approximately normal, with mean \mu = 0.45 and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.45*0.55}{100}} = 0.0497

b) 4.02 standard deviations below the mean.

c) Making 25 or less shots has a pvalue of -4.02. Z-scores lower than -2 are considered surprising, so yes, it would be surprising for him to make only 25 of these shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

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}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For proportions, we have that the mean is \mu = p and the standard deviation is s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.45, n = 100

a)By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution would be approximately normal, with mean \mu = 0.45 and standard deviation s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.45*0.55}{100}} = 0.0497

b)This is Z when X = 0.25.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{0.25 – 0.45}{0.0497}

Z = -4.02

4.02 standard deviations below the mean.

c) Making 25 or less shots has a pvalue of -4.02. Z-scores lower than -2 are considered

surprising, so yes, it would be surprising for him to make only 25 of these shots.

Which statement about the following equation is true?
spayn [35]

The given expression is

3x^2 -8x +5 = 5x^2

We have to find the discriminant first . And for that, first we need to move whole terms of the left side to right side, that is

5x^2 -3x^2 +8x -5=0

2x^2+ 8x -5 =0

The formula of discriminant is

D =b^2 -4ac

Substituting the values of a,b and c, we will get

D = 8^2 -4(2)(-5)=64+40 = 104

And since the discriminant is greater than 0, or it is positive so we have two real roots.

Therefore the correct option is B .

Use 3.14 on all questions on this text that use pi.
alexira [117]

Answer:

V_{cylinder}=3584\pi \thinspace yd^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder is just the area of the circle-surface multiplied by the height of the cylinder.

V_{cylinder}=\pi r^2 h

We're given that the radius=8 and height=56

V_{cylinder}=\pi r^2 h

V_{cylinder}=\pi (8)^2 (56)

V_{cylinder}=3584\pi \thinspace yd^3
