A rectangular prism must have a base with an area of no more than 27 square meters. The width of the base must be 9 meters less
than the height of the prism. The length of the base must be 6 meters more than the width of the base. Find the maximum height of the prism. Let x = the height of the prism x – 9 =

Answer:
The maximum height of the prism is
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the height of the prism
we know that
the area of the rectangular base of the prism is equal to
so
-------> inequality A
------> equation B
-----> equation C
Substitute equation B in equation C
------> equation D
Substitute equation B and equation D in the inequality A
-------> using a graphing tool to solve the inequality
The solution for x is the interval---------->
see the attached figure
but remember that
The width of the base must be meters less than the height of the prism
so
the solution for x is the interval ------>
The maximum height of the prism is

Answer:
63% of the values lies between 70 and 85.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a normally distributed set of numbers has a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 7.97.
<em>Let X = Set of numbers</em>
The z-score probability distribution for is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = mean value = 75
= standard deviation = 7.97
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is away from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value (area) 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.
So, percentage of values that lies between 70 and 85 is given by = P(70 < X < 85) = P(X < 85) - P(X 70)
P(X < 85) = P( <
) = P(Z < 1.25) = 0.89435 {using z table}
P(X 70) = P(
) = P(Z
-0.63) = 1 - P(Z < 0.63)
= 1 - 0.73565 = 0.26435
<em>Now, in the z table the P(Z </em><em> x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.25 and x = 0.63 in the z table which has an area of 0.89435 and 0.73565 respectively.</em>
Therefore, P(70 < X < 85) = 0.89435 - 0.26435 = 0.63 or 63%
<em>Hence, 63% of the values lies between 70 and 85.</em>
