Answer:

c ≈ 6.08 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question is how to solve for a missing side length of a triangle when given 2 sides length and an angle. The side length can be solved using the cosine rule . We use cosine rule to find the length of a side of a triangle when given two sides and an included angle.

The cosine rule formula for finding a side length are as follows

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cosC

b² = a² + c² - 2ac cosB

c² = a² + b² - 2ab cosC

Using cosine rule

c² = 4² + 3² - 2 × 4 × 3 cos 120°

c² = 16 + 9 - 24 cos 120°

c² = 25 - 24 (-0.5)

c² = 25 + 12

c² = 37

square root both sides

c = √37

c = 6.0827625303

c ≈ 6.08 m

On a normal distribution of IQ test scores, with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 points, a score of 85 places you a
klio [65]

Answer:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

So then we can conclude that the value of 85 is approximately the 16 percentile for this case.  

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".  

Solution to the problem

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

X \sim N(100,15)  

Where \mu=100 and \sigma=15

We are interested on this probability

P(X

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

P(Z

So then we can conclude that the value of 85 is approximately the 16 percentile for this case.
