If z varies inversely with the product of x and y:
z = k/ (x*y)
0.5 = k/(2*4)
0.5 = k/ 8
k = 0.5 * 8
k = 4.
Therefore, when x = 4 and y = 9:
z = 4 / (4*9) = 4/36 = 1/9
Answer: D ) 1/9

What is the simplified form of √144x^36
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The simplified form of \sqrt{144x^{36}} is 12x^{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : \sqrt{144x^{36}}

We have to write the simplified form of \sqrt{144x^{36}}

Consider the given expression \sqrt{144x^{36}}

We know \sqrt{144}=12

and \sqrt{x^{36}}=\sqrt{x^{18}\cdot x^{18}}

Thus,

\sqrt{144x^{36}}=\sqrt{12^2\cdot (x^{18})^2}

Simplify, we have,

=\sqrt{12^2\cdot (x^{18})^2}=12x^{18}

Thus, The simplified form of \sqrt{144x^{36}} is 12x^{18}

Among freshman at a certain university, scores on the Math SAT followed the normal curve, with an average of 550 and an SD of 10
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

a) 6.68th percentile

b) 617.5 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 550, \sigma = 100

a) A student who scored 400 on the Math SAT was at the ______ th percentile of the score distribution.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{400 - 550}{100}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

So this student is in the 6.68th percentile.

b) To be at the 75th percentile of the distribution, a student needed a score of about ______ points on the Math SAT.

He needs a score of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

0.675 = \frac{X - 550}{100}

X - 550 = 0.675*100

X = 617.5

n airplane took off from an airport and traveled at a constant rate and angle of elevation. When the airplane reached an altitud
hram777 [196]

The angle of the plane when it rose from the ground is 64.8 degrees

<h3>Application of trigonometry identity</h3>

Given the following parameters from the question

Altitude of the airplane H =  500m

Horizontal distance from airport "d"  = 235

Required

angle of elevation

According to the trigonometry identity

tan x = opposite/adjacent

tan x = H/d
tan x = 500/235

tan x = 2.1277

x = arctan(2.1277)

x = 64.8 degrees

The angle of the plane when it rose from the ground is 64.8 degrees
