Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Discussion:

Let the number be "n". Then the question states that

3n - 15 = (n/2) + 5 => multiply both sides by 2

6n - 30 = n + 10 => subtract n from both sides

5n - 30 = 10 => add 30 to both sides

5n = 30 + 10 = 40 => divide both sides by 5

n = 40/5 = 8

Thank you,

MrB

Normal Distribution. Cherry trees in a certain orchard have heights that are normally distributed with mu = 112 inches and sigma

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches is 0.0228.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cherry trees in a certain orchard have heights that are normally distributed with $\mu = 112$ inches and $\sigma = 14$ inches.

To find : What is the probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches?

Solution :

Mean - $\mu = 112$ inches

Standard deviation - $\sigma = 14$ inches

The z-score formula is given by, $Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Now,

$P(X>140)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{140-\mu}{\sigma})$

$P(X>140)=P(Z>\frac{140-112}{14})$

$P(X>140)=P(Z>\frac{28}{14})$

$P(X>140)=P(Z>2)$

$P(X>140)=1-P(Z$

The Z-score value we get is from the Z-table,

$P(X>140)=1-0.9772$

$P(X>140)=0.0228$

Therefore, the probability that a randomly chosen tree is greater than 140 inches is 0.0228.

state if the triangles in each pair of similar. If so, State how you know that they are similar and complete the similarity stat

iragen [17]

Answer:

Similar, AA similarity, ΔAKL

Step-by-step explanation:

BC and KL are parallel. Therefore, ∠B and ∠K are alternate interior angles, and ∠C and ∠L are also alternate interior angles. Alternate interior angle are congruent, so by AA similarity, ΔABC ~ ΔAKL.

Graph the line that has a slope of 1/9 and includes the point (0,8)

Crank

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 1/9

y int (b) = 8.....or (0,8)

y = 1/9x + 8.....this is ur equation

ur x intercept is : (can be found by subbing in 0 for y

0 = 1/9x + 8

-1/9x = 8

x = 8 * -9

x = - 72....or (-72,0)
