Answer:

81.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

The average summer temperature in Anchorage is 69°F.

The daily temperature is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 7°F .

To Find:What percentage of the time would the temperature be between 55°F and 76°F?

Solution:

Mean = \mu = 69

Standard deviation = \sigma = 7

Formula : z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Now At x = 55

z=\frac{55-69}{7}

z=-2

At x = 76

z=\frac{76-69}{7}

z=1

Now to find P(55<z<76)

P(2<z<-1)=P(z<2)-P(z>-1)

Using z table :

P(2<z<-1)=P(z<2)-P(z>-1)=0.9772-0.1587=0.8185

Now percentage of the time would the temperature be between 55°F and 76°F = 0.8185 \times 100 = 81.85\%

Hence If the daily temperature is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 7°F, 81.85% of the time would the temperature be between 55°F and 76°F.

6 1/4% as a decimal?
sergij07 [2.7K]
First you have to change it into an improper fraction. The improper fraction would be 25/4% and to find the decimal you take the numerator divided by the denominator. So you would take 25÷4=6.25% The answer is 6.25%. Hope this helps

Use substitution to solve the<br> following system of equations.<br> - 4y - 5x = 30 AND x= y + 3
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations is y = -5 and x = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us to use substitution to solve the system.  This means that the given value for x (in terms of y) should be substituted into the other equation.  This is modeled below:

-4y - 5x = 30

-4y - 5(y+3) = 30

Next, we should use the distributive property to simplify the left side of the equation.

-4y -5y - 15 = 30

The next step is to combine like terms on the left side of the equation.

-9y - 15 = 30

Then, we can add 15 to both sides of the equation.

-9y = 45

Finally, we can divide both sides of the equation by -9.

y = -5

To find the value for x, we substitute in the value we just found for y into either of our original equations.

x = y + 3

x = -5 + 3

x = -2

Therefore, the correct answer is y = -5 and x = -2.

Hope this helps!
