Answer:

B. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Final figure volume = big cuboid volume - small cuboid volume

Volume of a cuboid = height x width x length

Final figure = (6 x 6 x 15) - (4 x 4 x 15)

Final figure = 540 - 240

Final figure = 300mm^2

The time for a professor to grade an exam is normally distributed with a mean of 16.3 minutes and a standard deviation of 4.2 mi

dem82 [27]

Answer:

62.17% probability that a randomly selected exam will require more than 15 minutes to grade

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value 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. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 16.3, \sigma = 4.2$

What is the probability that a randomly selected exam will require more than 15 minutes to grade

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 15. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{15 - 16.3}{4.2}$

$Z = -0.31$

$Z = -0.31$ has a pvalue of 0.3783.

1 - 0.3783 = 0.6217

62.17% probability that a randomly selected exam will require more than 15 minutes to grade

A rectangle has an area of 0.24 of a square. What are some possibility for the length and width of the rectangle? Tell why

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The possibilities of length and width of the rectangle are </h3><h3>x=1, y=0.24;</h3><h3>x=0.5, y=0.48;</h3><h3>x=0.25, y=0.96;</h3><h3>x=2, y=0.12</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the area is 0.24 square meter

The area of a rectangle is given by

$Area=length\times width$ square units

Let x be the length and y be the width.

Since the area is 0.24 square meter, we have the equation:

$Area=x\times y = 0.24$ , with x and y measures in meters

If we want to know some possibilities of x and y, we can assume a value for one of them, and then calculate the other one using the equation.

Now choosing some values for "x", we have:

Put x = 1

$1\times y = 0.24$

∴ y = 0.24

Now put x = 0.5 we get

$0.5\times y = 0.24$

∴ y = 0.48

Put x = 0.25

$0.25\times y = 0.24$

∴ y = 0.96

Put x = 2

$2\times y = 0.24$

∴ y = 0.12

the graph of y=e^tanx-2 crosses the x axis at one point in the interval [0,1]. What is the slope of the graph at this point? I g

Svetlanka [38]

Y = e^tanx - 2

To find at which point it crosses x axis we state that y= 0

e^tanx - 2 = 0
e^tanx = 2
tanx = ln 2
tanx = 0.69314
x = 0.6061

to find slope at that point first we need to find first derivative of funtion y.

y' = (e^tanx)*1/cos^2(x)

now we express x = 0.6061 in y' and we get:
y' = k = 2,9599
