The number of ounces of water a person drinks per day is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 15 ounces. If Sean dr

inks 88 ounces per day with a z-score of 1.6, what is the mean ounces a day of water that a person drinks?

Answer:

The person drinks a mean of 64 ounces a day

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we will need to use the z-score formula.

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

Here, x = 88 ounces , mean = ?, z-score = 1.6 and SD = 15 ounces

We plug these values into the equation

1.6 = (88- mean)/15

15 * 1.6 = 88 - mean

24 = 88 - mean

mean = 88 - 24

mean = 64 ounces

P1= (5,-4); p2=(8,-3);p3=(7,-10) find the length of each side of the triangle determined by three points
Dima020 [189]

so the points are, from P1 to P2, namely P1P2, and from P2 to P3, namely P2P3, and from P3 back to P1, namely P3P1.




\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ P1(\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-4})\qquad  P2(\stackrel{x_2}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-3})\qquad \qquad  d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ P1P2=\sqrt{[8-5]^2+[-3-(-4)]^2}\implies P1P2=\sqrt{(8-5)^2+(-3+4)^2} \\\\\\ P1P2=\sqrt{3^2+1^2}\implies \boxed{P1P2=\sqrt{10}}\\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}


\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ P2(\stackrel{x_2}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-3})\qquad  P3(\stackrel{x_2}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-10}) \\\\\\ P2P3=\sqrt{[7-8]^2+[-10-(-3)]^2}\implies P2P3=\sqrt{(7-8)^2+(-10+3)^2} \\\\\\ P2P3=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-7)^2}\implies P2P3=\sqrt{50}\implies \boxed{P2P3=5\sqrt{2}}\\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}


\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ P3(\stackrel{x_2}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-10})\qquad  P1(\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-4}) \\\\\\ P3P1=\sqrt{[5-7]^2+[-4-(-10)]^2}\implies P3P1=\sqrt{(5-7)^2+(-4+10)^2} \\\\\\ P3P1=\sqrt{(-2)^2+6^2}\implies P3P1=\sqrt{40}\implies \boxed{P3P1=2\sqrt{10}}

A) The signs of the first derivative (g') tell you the graph increases as you go left from x=4 and as you go right from x=-2. Since g(4) < g(-2), one absolute extreme is (4, g(4)) = (4, 1).

The sign of the first derivative changes at x=0, at which point the slope is undefined (the curve is vertical). The curve approaches +∞ at x=0 both from the left and from the right, so the other absolute extreme is (0, +∞).

b) The second derivative (g'') changes sign at x=2, so there is a point of inflection there.

c) There is a vertical asymptote at x=0 and a flat spot at x=2. The curve goes through the points (-2, 5) and (4, 1), is increasing to the left of x=0 and non-increasing to the right of x=0. The curve is concave upward on [-2, 0) and (0, 2) and concave downward on (2, 4]. A possible graph is shown, along with the first and second derivatives.

A rectangular playground is to be fenced off and divided in two by another fence parallel to one side of the playground. Seven h
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the dimensions of the playground are x and y.

The total amount of the fence used is given and it is 780 ft. In terms of x and y this would be 3x+2y=780 (we add 3x because we want it to be cut in the middle). Therefore,  y= 780/2-3/2x. Now, the total area (A )to be fenced is

A=x*y= x*(390-3/2x)=-3/2 x^2+390x

Calculating the derivative of A and setting it equals to 0 to find the maximum

A'= -3x+390=0

This yields x=130.

Therefore y=780/2-3/2*130=195

Thus, the maximum area is 130*195=25,350ft^2
