Depreciation is a reduction in value of an asset. Therefore, a 25 percent depreciation would mean a reduction of ¼ on the initial worth of the car.

Reduction = 28,000 * (1/4) = 7,000

Car worth today = 28,000 – 7,000 = 21,000

6. The heights of men selected from a particular population have a normal distribution with mean 68 inches and standard deviatio
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

a) the proportion is 0.159 (15.9%)

b) the proportion is 0.524 (52.4%)

c) Ralph is 70.958 inches tall

Step-by-step explanation:

defining our random variable X= heights of men , then we can define the standard random variable Z as

Z= (X- μ)/σ , where  μ is the population's mean and σ is the corresponding standard deviation of X

then for X=72

Z= (X- μ)/σ

Z= (72-68)/4 = 1

a) P(X> 72) = P(Z> 1) = 1-0.841 = 0.159 (using standard normal distribution tables)

b) for X=64 and X=74

Z₁= (64 -68)/4 = -1

Z₂= (74-68)/4 = 1.5

then

P(68<X< 74) = P(-1<Z <1.5) 0 = P(Z<1.5) - P(Z<-1) =  0.933- 0.159 =0.774

c) Z₃ = 0.933 - 0.774*0.25 = 0.7395

thus

Z₃= (X₃- μ)/σ →X₃ =μ+ Z₃*σ = 68 + 0.7395*4  = 70.958 inches

therefore Ralph is 70.958 inches tall

Given the area, find the dimension of a rectangle
solong [7]

Answer:

Length=17

Width=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Length=x

Width=2x-30

x(2x-30)=68

2x²-30x=68

2x²-30x-68=0

2(x²-15x-34)=0

2(x+2)(x-17)=0

So x equals either 17 or -2.  Since it can’t be -2, x=17

Length=x=17

Width=2x-30=2*17-30=34-30=4
