A wildlife preserve features a crocodile with a documented age of 24 years, believed to be one of the oldest crocodiles in capti

zysi [14]

Answer:

0.0104

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, the lifespans of crocodiles have an approximately Normal distribution, with a mean of 18 years and a standard deviation of 2.6 years.

So, mean, $\mu=18$

and standard deviation, $\sigma=2.6$

The z-score, for any arbitrary life span of x year, is given by

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

By using the given values, we have

$z=\frac{x-18}{2.6} \cdots(i)$

The z-score for x=24, by using equation (i), is

$z=\frac{24-18}{2.6}=\frac{6}{2.6}=2.31$

From the table, the area to the left side of z=2.31 =0.98956

But, the proportion of crocodiles have lifespans of at least 24 years

= Area to the right side of the z=2.31

=1- (Area to the left side of the z=2.31)

=1-0.98956

=0.01044

So, the proportion of crocodiles that have lifespans of at least 24 years is 0.0104.

Hence, option (a) is correct.

solve the following systems of equations. Express your answer as an ordered pair in the format(a,b), with no spaces between the

kodGreya [7K]

If you multiply the top equation by -2 you get:

-4x -14y = 14 => -4x = 14+14y

now you can plug in the -4x into the second equation:

14+14y - 3y = -19 => 11y = -33 => y=-3

Fill in y=-3 in either equation to find x:

2x - 21 = -7 => 2x = 14 => x=7

So your ordered pair is (7,-3)

Given cos x=0.4762,find the degree measure of x.round your answer to the nearest tenth

alex41 [277]

If you have a calculator, you can use the inverse cos " cos⁻¹ " key. Many upper level books write that as Arccos so as not to confuse you with a negative exponent. We do that because if you take the cosine of any angle, and then the inverse cosine of any angle, it leads you back to the original angle. Think of it as a big "UNDO" button.

To one decimal place, that result is 61.6 degrees.

The Hurry-Mart convenient store is re-stocking their shelves. They always stock the m&m to Hershey bars at a ratio of 10 to

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

12 Hershey bars

Step-by-step explanation:

if its 10 to 8 and you have 15 m&m then you would have to do the 10 which you would have to put 8 then 5 is half of 10 so you would just half 8 which is 4 so 8+4+12. 12 Hershey bars needed to restock the shelf.
