Answer:

4.464 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 5 mm, standard deviation (σ) = 0.4 ml

The z score is a score in statistics used to determine by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and if the z score is negative then the raw score is below the mean It is given by:

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

From the normal distribution table, the 9th percentile (0.09) corresponds to a z score of -1.34

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.34=\frac{x-5}{0.4}\\\\x-5=-0.536\\\\x=5-0.536\\\\x=4.464

The dye amount that represents the 9th percentile of the distribution is 4.464 ml

Whats the length in meters of CD?​
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The length of DC in meters is  \frac{60}{13} ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

In the circle O

∵ AB passing through O

∴ AB is a diameter

∵ D is on the circle

∴ ∠ADB is an inscribed angle subtended by arc AB

∵ Arc AB is half the circle

→ That means its measure is 180°

∴ m∠ADB = \frac{1}{2} × 180° = 90°

In ΔADB

∵ m∠ADB = 90°

∵ AD = 5 m

∵ BD = 12 m

→ By using Pythagorase Theorem

∵ (AB)² = (AD)² + (DB)²

∴ (AB)² = (5)² + (12)²

∴ (AB)² = 25 + 144 = 169

→ Take square root for both sides

∴ AB = 13 m

∵ ∠ADB is a right angle

∵ DC ⊥ AB

∴ DC × AB = AD × DB

→ Substitute the lengths of AB, AD, and DB

∵ DC × 13 = 5 × 12

∴ 13 DC = 60

→ Divide both sides by 13

∴ DC = \frac{60}{13} m

∴ The length of DC in meters is  \frac{60}{13}
