Answer:

The percentage of people taking the test who score between 391 and 767 is 95%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7 Rule) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 579

Standard deviation = 94

391 = 579 - 2*94

So 391 is two standard deviations below the mean.

767 = 579 + 2*94

So 767 is two standard deviations above the mean.

By the Empirical Rule:

The percentage of people taking the test who score between 391 and 767 is 95%.

Make a reasonable conjecture for the term 100 5 90 10 80 15 70
eimsori [14]

Answer:

steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The series contains a combination of two arithmetic sequence series. The number series in the odd position (100,90,80,..) is an arithmetic series with a common difference of 10, and the even number group (3,10,15,...) is another arithmetic series with a common difference of 5.

2. sequence 1 (Odd): a₁ = 100 d = 10   next term is 60

   sequence 2 (Even): a₁ = 5 d = 5   next term is 20

3. next 2 terms of the series are 60, 20

Help solving this math
9966 [12]

Answer:

  1. 24 cm²
  2. 6400 -1600π ≈ 1373.45 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can look at this several ways.

It can be considered to be a stack of 1+2+3 = 6 squares that are 2 cm on a side, so have a total area of 6 × (2 cm)² = 24 cm².

You can lop off one of the squares sticking out and put it into the empty corner to form a 6 cm by 4 cm rectangle with an area of (6 cm)(4 cm) = 24 cm².

You can consider it to be a 6 cm square with 3 squares cut out of it that are 2 cm on a side: (6 cm)² -3(2 cm)² = (36 -12) cm² = 24 cm².

__

2. The shaded area is the difference in areas of a square 80 units on a side and a circle of 40 units radius. If we let d represent the side dimension of the square, then the area formulas are ...

  Square area = d²

  Circle area = π(d/2)²

So the difference area is ...

  shaded area = d² -(π/4)d² = d²(1 -π/4)

For d=80, the shaded area is ...

  shaded area = 80²(1 -π/4) = 6400 -1600π ≈ 1373.45 square units

Part A
romanna [79]

The amount earned hourly by Ryan and the number of work hours required to cover his vacation cost are $29.75 and 63 hours respectively.

<u>Given the Parameters</u> :

  • Total amount earned = $238

  • Number of hours worked = 8 hours

Hourly earning = Total earning ÷ number of hours worked

Hourly earning = $238 ÷ 8 = $29.75

B.)

Vacation cost = $1850

Hourly earning = $29.75

<u>Number of work hours required</u> :

  • Vacation cost ÷ Hourly earning

  • $1850 ÷ $29.75 = 62.18

Therefore, Ryan will need to work for 63 hours to cover his vacation expenses.

Verify the identity. <br><br> cos 4x + cos 2x = 2 - 2 sin2 2x - 2 sin2 x
Alex_Xolod [135]
<span>cos 4x + cos 2x = 2 - 2 sin^2 2x - 2 sin^2 x
cos 4x + cos 2x = 1 + 1 − 2sin^2(2x) − 2sin^2(x)
 cos 4x + cos 2x = (1 - 2sin^2(2x)) + (1 - 2 sin^2(x)
 cos 4x + cos 2x = cos 4x + cos 2x</span>
