Answer:

The 20th percentile of coffee temperature is 155.4532 degrees Fahrenheit.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 160 degrees

Standard Deviation, σ = 5.4 degrees

We are given that the distribution of temperature of coffee is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.2

P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 160}{5.4})=0.2  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 160}{5.4} = -0.842\\\\x = 155.4532  

Thus,

P_{20}=155.4532

The 20th percentile of coffee temperature is 155.4532 degrees Fahrenheit.

Answer:

D. -\frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

4y=8x-3

When we divide through by 4 we get;

y=2x-\frac{3}{4}

Comparing to

y=mx+c,

The y-intercept is -\frac{3}{4}

The corrrect choice is D.

Identify the lateral area and surface area of a regular square pyramid with base edge length 5 in. and slant height 9 in.
Galina-37 [17]
Note that a squared pyramid has a square base & 4 equal triangles.
To find the lateral the lateral area you calculate the area of the 4 equal triangles  and to find the surface area (total Area) you add the area of the base:

Area of each triangle = side (5) x slant (9) and you divide by 2

==>Aera of 1 triangle = (9x5)/2 = 45/2 & for the 4 triangles

Lateral area = (45/2) x 4 = 90 in²

Now the base area (square) = 5 x 5= 25 in²

so the surface area = 90+25 = 115 in² (answer a)

What values of b satisfy 4(3b + 2)2 = 64?
Vikentia [17]
Given the equation 4(3b + 2)² = 64, dividing both sides of the equation by 4, we have (3b + 2)² = 16 and getting the square root of both sides, (3b + 2) = 4 and (3b + 2) = -4 We can solve for b for each equation and have 3b = 2 | 3b = -6 b = 2/3 | b = -2 Therefore, the values of b are 2/3 and -2 and from the choices, the answer is <span>A: b = 2/3 and b = -2.</span>
