Find the Area of the Shaded Region.

Mrac [35]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

610 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

If we extend the horizontal line across the right-hand portion of the figure, then the figure is divided into two rectangles:

bottom: 5 m × 50 m = 250 m²

top: 18 m × 20 m = 360 m²

The sum of these areas is the shaded area:

shaded area = 250 m² +360 m² = 610 m²

In 2016, 1 out of every 5 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books. If there were approximately 225 millio

statuscvo [17]

Answer: 45

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2016, 1 out of every 5 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books. This means that 2 out of every 10 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books. Also, 3 out of every 15 people under the age of 50 used a cell phone to read e-books.

Therefore, if there were x people under the age of 50 in 2016, then the number that used a cell phone to read e-books would be

1/5 × x = x/5

If there were approximately 225 million people under the age of 50 in 2016, then the number that were likely to have read an e-book on a cell phone is

225/5 = 45 people.

Weights of the vegetables in a field are normally distributed. From a sample Carl Cornfield determines the mean weight of a box

pantera1 [17]

To find the z-score for a weight of 196 oz., use

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{196-180}{8}=\frac{16}{8}=2$

A table for the cumulative distribution function for the normal distribution (see picture) gives the area 0.9772 BELOW the z-score z = 2. Carl is wondering about the percentage of boxes with weights ABOVE z = 2. The total area under the normal curve is 1, so subtract .9772 from 1.0000.

1.0000 - .9772 = 0.0228, so about 2.3% of the boxes will weigh more than 196 oz.
