Answer:

75= 119 -1.96 \sigma

\sigma = \frac{75-119}{-1.96}= 22.45

And tha's equivalent to use this formula:

163= 119 +1.96 \sigma

\sigma = \frac{163-119}{1.96}= 22.45

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case the 95%of the values are between the following two values:

(75 , 163)

And for this case we know that the variable of interest X "length of a movie" follows a normal distribution:

X \sim N( \mu, \sigma)

We can estimate the true mean with the following formula:

\mu = \frac{75+163}{2}= 119

Now we know that in the normal standard distribution we know that we have 95% of the values between 1.96 deviations from the mean. We can find the value of the deviation with this formula:

75= 119 -1.96 \sigma

\sigma = \frac{75-119}{-1.96}= 22.45

And tha's equivalent to use this formula:

163= 119 +1.96 \sigma

\sigma = \frac{163-119}{1.96}= 22.45

What’s the area of this face ?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark.

I take it we are only concerned with the deep lime face that we can see closest to us.

Construction

Draw one line that goes from the right of the left foot up to the 18 foot line

Draw another line that goes from the left of the right foot up to the 18 foot line.

label the width of the right foot as 18 - 6 - 6 = 6

Solution

Right foot

Area = L * w

L = 12 feet

w = 6 feet

Area = 12*6 =                        72

Left foot   (same area)         72

Area above the door.

Height = 12 - 6 = 6

width  6

Area = 6 * 6 =                       36

Answer: Total Area = 72 + 72 + 36 = 180

Your current schedule only lets you take two 1-credit courses every six months. You need 12 credits to get the degree you want.
lianna [129]
So,

Since you can only take two one-credit courses every six months, you can earn 2 credits every six months, and 4 credits in one year.  Multiplying that by 3, you get 12 credits in 3 years.

It will take 3 years to get the degree.

Find the sum and product of the roots. 2x^2 + 6x - 8 = 0
netineya [11]
Suppose you can factorize:

ax^2+bx+c=a(x-r_1)(x-r_2)

Then by expanding the right side, you have

ax^2+bx+c=a(x^2-(r_1+r_2)x+r_1r_2)=ax^2-a(r_1+r_2)x+ar_1r_2

which means in this case, you have to have

\begin{cases}6=-2(r_1+r_2)\\-8=2r_1r_2\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}r_1+r_2=-3\\r_1r_2=-4\end{cases}
