Answer:
The probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X </em>follows a Normal distribution.
The mean and standard deviation are:
E (X) = <em>μ</em> = 50.
SD (X) = <em>σ</em> = 7.
A normal distribution is continuous probability distribution.
The Normal probability distribution with mean µ and standard deviation σ is given by,

To compute the probability of a Normal random variable we first standardize the raw score.
The raw scores are standardized using the formula:

These standardized scores are known as <em>z</em>-scores and they follow normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.
Compute the probability of (X < 42) as follows:

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.
Thus, the probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.
The normal curve is shown below.
Since
, we can rewrite the integral as

Now there is no ambiguity about the definition of f(t), because in each integral we are integrating a single part of its piecewise definition:

Both integrals are quite immediate: you only need to use the power rule

to get
![\displaystyle \int_0^11-3t^2\;dt = \left[t-t^3\right]_0^1,\quad \int_1^4 2t\; dt = \left[t^2\right]_1^4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5Cint_0%5E11-3t%5E2%5C%3Bdt%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5Bt-t%5E3%5Cright%5D_0%5E1%2C%5Cquad%20%5Cint_1%5E4%202t%5C%3B%20dt%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5Bt%5E2%5Cright%5D_1%5E4)
Now we only need to evaluate the antiderivatives:
![\left[t-t^3\right]_0^1 = 1-1^3=0,\quad \left[t^2\right]_1^4 = 4^2-1^2=15](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5Bt-t%5E3%5Cright%5D_0%5E1%20%3D%201-1%5E3%3D0%2C%5Cquad%20%5Cleft%5Bt%5E2%5Cright%5D_1%5E4%20%3D%204%5E2-1%5E2%3D15)
So, the final answer is 15.
Hope This helps you..!!!!
The equation is actually

. Free fall is always -16t^2 as the position function. We are looking for how long it takes the object to hit the ground. In other words, the height of an object is 0 when it is laying on the ground, so how long (t) did it take to get there? We will then set that position equal to 0 and solve for t.

. If we subtract 1437 from both sides and divide by -16, we have

. Taking the square root of both sides gives us, rounded to the nearest tenth, t = 9.5 or t=-9.5. The 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -9.5 is out. That means that it took just about 9.5 seconds for the object to fall to the ground from a height of 1437 feet when pulled on by the force of gravity.
Paralell has same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=1/2x+b
find b
(x,y)
(4,0)
x=4
y=0
0=1/2(4)+b
0=2+b
minus 2 both sides
-2=b
the equaiton is
y=1/2x-2
or
x-2y=4
