Answer:

= -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope we use

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= ( -5 - -6)/(-7 - -2)

( -5 +6)/(-7 +2)

1/-5

= -1/5

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. the seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130lb and 1

Vlad [161]

Answer: 0.4758

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : $\mu=137\text{ lb}$

Standard deviation : $\sigma =28.9\text{ lb}$

Also, the new population of pilots has normally distributed .

The formula to calculate the z-score :-

$z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

For x=130 lb .

$z=\dfrac{130-137}{28.9}=-0.2422145\approx-0.24$

For x=171lb.

$z=\dfrac{171-137}{28.9}=1.1764705\approx1.18$

The p-value = $P(-0.24$

$=0.8809999-0.4051651=0.4758348\approx0.4758348\approx0.4758$

Hence, the required probability : 0.4758

Rectangle w/area of 91 has dimensions of (x+2) and (2x+3). Solve for dimensions.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

5unit

Step-by-step explanation: since area of rectangle = length*width

Here length is (x+2) and width is(2x+3)

(x+2)(2x+3)=91

On further solving

2x^2+75x-85=0

2x^2-10x+17x-85=0

2x(x-5)+17(x-5)=0

(2x+17)(x-5)=0

x=5unit
