Answer:
option 4 ⇒ 236 lb.
Step-by-step explanation:
Best explanation of the question is as shown in the attached figure.
we will use the parallelogram method to calculate resultant force.
to get the length of the resultant force ⇒ use the cosines law
The cosine law is a² = b² + c² - 2 * b * c * cos (∠A)
Applying at the question where b = F₁ , c = F₂ and ∠A = ∠x
Given that F₁ = 100 pounds , F₂ = 150 pounds and ∠x = 180° - 40° = 140°
∴ (Resultant force)² = 100² + 150² - 2 * 100 * 150 * cos (∠140) = 55481
∴ Resultant force = √55481 = 235.54 ≅ 236 pounds
The answer is option 4 ⇒ 236 lb.
Answer:
The third one :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the normal distribution, it is found that:
- 3 - a) The 40th percentile of the height of Dinaric Alps distribution for men is of 72.2 inches.
- 3 - b) The minimum height of man in the Dinaric Alps that would place him in the top 10% of all heights is of 76.84 inches.
- 4 - a) The 25th percentile for the math scores was of 71.6 inches.
- 4 - b) The 75th percentile for the math scores was of 78.4 inches.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution
</h3>
In a <em>normal distribution </em>with mean
and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
- It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
- After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
Question 3:
- The mean is of 73 inches, hence
.
- The standard deviation is of 3 inches, hence
.
Item a:
The 40th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.4, so <u>X when Z = -0.253</u>.




The 40th percentile of the height of Dinaric Alps distribution for men is of 72.2 inches.
Item b:
The minimum height is the 100 - 10 = 90th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so <u>X when Z = 1.28</u>.




The minimum height of man in the Dinaric Alps that would place him in the top 10% of all heights is of 76.84 inches.
Question 4:
- The mean score is of 75, hence
.
- The standard deviation is of 5, hence
.
Item a:
The 25th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so <u>X when Z = -0.675</u>.




The 25th percentile for the math scores was of 71.6 inches.
Item b:
The 75th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so <u>X when Z = 0.675</u>.




The 75th percentile for the math scores was of 78.4 inches.

The slope of function A is the coefficient of x, which is 6.
The slope of function B is the rise divided by the run, which is 3/1 = 3.
The appropriate choice is ...
... c) Slope of Function A = 2×Slope of Function B
