Answer:

b. 99 out of 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for this using z score formula

z-score formula is given as:

z = (x - μ)/σ

where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

a) x = 129cm, μ = 135.75cm, σ = 1.85cm

z = (129- 135.75)/1.85

z = -3.64865

Finding the Probability value of the z score from the z table:

P(x = 129) = P(z = -3.64865)

= 0.00013181

b) x = 143 cm, μ = 135.75cm, σ = 1.85cm

z = (143- 135.75)/1.85

z = 3.91892

Finding the Probability value of the z score from the z table:

P(x = 143) = P(z = 3.91892)

= 0.99996

The chances that a randomly selected widget has diameter between 129 centimeters and 143centimeters

= P(x = 143) - P(x = 129)

= P(z = 3.91892) - P(z = -3.64865)

= 0.99996 - 0.00013181

= 0.99982819

Converting to percentage

= 0.99982819 × 100

= 99.982819%

Therefore, option b. 99 out of 100 is the correct answer

F(x) = 1/(x+2)   & g(x) = x/(x-3)


(f(x) + g(x) = 1/(x+2) + x/(x-3). Reduce to same denominator:

1/(x+2) + x/(x-3) =(x-3) + x(x-3)/(x+2).(x-3) ==> (x²+3x-3)/(x+2).(x-3)

Samantha needs to bake at least 120 pot pies to sell at her restaurant. she can bake 12 pot pies per hour and 15 veggie pot pies
Veronika [31]

Answer:

y>(line under >) - 4/5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Phrase "at least" indicates that the total number of pies is greater than or equal to 120.

The number of chicken pot pies Samantha makes is 12x, and the number of veggie pot pies she makes is 15y.

Use this information to create the inequality:

12x + 15y >(line under >) 120

Simplify by solving for y to get this inequality:

y >(line under >) - 4/5x + 8

Translate this sentence into an equation.
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The product of Victor's age and 7 is 84 in equation form is 7v=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v be the  Victor's age.

We are supposed to Translate this sentence into an equation

The product of Victor's age and 7 is 84

Victor's age = v

Product of victor's age and 7 =7 \times v

We are given that their product is 84

So,7 \times v =84

Hence The product of Victor's age and 7 is 84 in equation form is 7v=84

Graph f(x)=3x+5 and g(x)=3x-2
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Two parallel lines

Step-by-step explanation:

the slopes are the same: slope = 3

f(x) 3x + 5                          g(x) = 3x - 2

Pick at least three x values and find their corresponding values for y. Remember the f(x)  and g(x) represent y

                                   f(x) = 3x + 5                           g(x) = 3x - 2

                                    y = 3x + 5                              y = 3x - 2

let x = 0                       y = 3(0) + 5                              y = 3(0) - 2

                                     y = 5                                         y   =  -2

Ordered pair                (0, 5)                                        (0, -2)

Let x = 1                      y = 3(1) +5                                y  = 3(1) - 2

                                  y = 8                                         y = 1

ordered pair                (1, 8)                                        (1, 1)

Let x = -1                  y = 3(-1) + 5                               y = 3(-1) - 2                  

                                  y = 2                                        y =  -5

ordered pair             (-1, 2)                                         ( -1, -5)

Locate the ordered pairs and draw the graph on the lines.  

you will graph two parallel lines
