Answer:

The area is given by the following integral: \int\limits^{45}_{35} \frac{1}{\sqrt{242\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-31.5)^2}{242}} dx, which can be approximated by: 0.265313

Step-by-step explanation:

A normal distribution is defined as:

f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi \sigma^2}}e^{-\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}}

, where the greek letter sigma stands for the standard deviation and mu for the mean. Since in our problem we have a mean = 31.5 and a standard deviation = 11, then we can write this function as:

f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{242\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-31.5)^2}{242}}

Now, we need to find the area below this function, between 35 and 45, and in order to do this, we need to integrate the function. The normal distribution does not has an exact closed form integral, therefore we will have to solve the integral in a software that allows for numerical calculations (I used the online software Wolfram|Alpha).

\int\limits^{45}_{35} \frac{1}{\sqrt{242\pi}}e^{-\frac{(x-31.5)^2}{242}} dx =0.265313

What number is 16% of 44 rounded to the nearest tenth show the work also and thxs
OLEGan [10]
SOLUTION:

16% of 44 = 44 × 16% OR 44 × 16 / 100 OR 44 × 0.16

16% of 44 = 7.04

16% of 44 = 7.0 ( rounded to the nearest tenth )

John wants to fence in a portion of his backyard. ... How many feet of fencing does john need to buy to enclose this area? ... H
Lelechka [254]
For this problem you need to find the area.
To find area, you multiply the width by the length.
You multiply 12 1/2 by 5 1/2 and you get 31 1/4
This is how you do it::

= 25/2 × 5/2

= (25 × 5) / (2 × 2)

= 125/4

= 125/4

<span>= 31 1/4

So you know that the area is 31 1/4 yards. 
In the question it asks HOW MANY FEET so we have to convert 31 1/4 yards to feet. 
1 yard= 3 feet
31 1/4 *3= </span><span>93.75
<span>John need to buy 93.75 feet of fencing to enclose the area.</span></span>
