Hip Breadths and Aircraft Seats
Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 98% of all males. (Accommodating 100% of males would be too expensive.) Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 in. and a standard deviation of 1.0 in. Find P 98. That is, find the hip breadth for men that separates the smallest 98% from the largest 2%.

Find m. Please guys I really need your help :(

vredina [299]

Answer:

$m=\sqrt{2}$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, it is given that the triangle is a right angle isosceles triangle (angles are 45°, 45° and 90°). This means that the two shorter sides of the triangle are equal in length and that the side $m$ can be found by using the Pythagorean theorem $a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$ .

$m^{2}+m^{2}=2^{2}$ (The two shorter sides of the triangle are equivalent)

$2m^{2}=4$

$m^{2}=2$

$m=\sqrt{2}$ inches

I hope this helps :)

The piecewise function h(x) is shown on the graph.

Artemon [7]

Step-by-step explanation/Answer:

The value for h(3) is 1.

Coordinate (3,1)

The value on h(3) is located in the last part of the piecewise function, which starts at (1,3) until (4,0). To know the exact image of h(3), we can find the function that belongs to that piece of line, and then calculated the asked value.

So, to calculate the equation, we first have to find the slope with its definition, and then we'll use the point-slope formula to find the equation:

Therefore, the coordinates is (3,1), that is, the value for h(3) is 1.
