The ratio of the shortest sides is 12/5. Multiplying the other two sides of the smaller triangle by that ratio gives 15 and 18, so the ratios of all sides are the same. The triangles are similar.

ABC ~ ZYX

The largest/smallest scale factor is 12/5 = 2.4.

An article suggested that yield strength (ksi) for A36 grade steel is normally distributed with μ = 42 and σ = 5.5.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

a)P( X

We want this probability:

P( X >64)

And using the z score formula given by:

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

We got:

P( X >64) =P(Z> \frac{64-42}{5.5}) =P(Z>4)=0.0000316

b) For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.25   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.75 of the area on the left and 0.25 of the area on the right it's z=0.674. On this case P(Z<0.674)=0.75 and P(z>0.674)=0.25

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=0.674

And if we solve for a we got

a=42 +0.674*5.5=45.707

So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 45.707.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(42,25.5)  

Where \mu=42 and \sigma=5.5

And we want this probability:

P( X

And using the z score formula given by:

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

We got:

P( X

We want this probability:

P( X >64)

And using the z score formula given by:

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

We got:

P( X >64) =P(Z> \frac{64-42}{5.5}) =P(Z>4)=0.0000316

Part b

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.25   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.75 of the area on the left and 0.25 of the area on the right it's z=0.674. On this case P(Z<0.674)=0.75 and P(z>0.674)=0.25

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=0.674

And if we solve for a we got

a=42 +0.674*5.5=45.707

So the value of height that separates the bottom 75% of data from the top 25% is 45.707.

. A hawk flying at a height of 60 feet spots a rabbit on the ground. If the hawk dives at a speed of 55 feet per second, how
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The hawk reaches the rabbit at t=4.3 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

h ----> is the height in feet

t ----> is the time in seconds

v ---> the initial velocity in feet pr second

s ----- is the starting height

we have

h=-16t^{2} +vt+s

when the hawk reaches the rabbit the value of h is equal to zero

we have

v=55\ ft/sec

s=60\ ft

substitute

0=-16t^{2} +55t+60

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solution is t=4.3 sec

see the attached figure
