Answer:

E. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle split in half diagonally yields 2 right triangles.

((For this problem, you are probably supposed to use the pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal length, and then calculate perimeter (length of fence around triangular field). In other words:

(sqrt( (50m)^2 + (120m)^2 )) + 50m + 120m)

))

By definition, the hypotenuse (diagonal) is the longest side.

This means that it must be longer than 120m.

If you add the 2 sides (50m + 120m), you get 170m.

Since the third side has to be longer than 120m, the answer _must_ be over 290m (170m + 120m).

300m is the only answer that fits.

The mean rent of a 3-bedroom apartment in Orlando is $1300. You randomly select 10 apartments around town. The rents are normall
lana [24]

Answer:

96.49% probability that the mean rent is more than $1100

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 1300, \sigma = 350, n = 10, s = \frac{350}{\sqrt{10}} = 110.68

What is the probability that the mean rent is more than $1100?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1100. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{1100 - 1300}{110.68}

Z = -1.81

Z = -1.81 has a pvalue of 0.0351

1 - 0.0351 = 0.9649

96.49% probability that the mean rent is more than $1100

In the United States, there are 59 different species of mammals that are endangered,
jolli1 [7]

Given Information:

Number of endangered mammal species = 59

Number of endangered bird species = 75

Number of endangered fish species = 68

Required Information:

Probability of either a  mammal or a fish = ?

Answer:

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202 = 0.6287 = 62.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to randomly select one animal and find out the probability of either a mammal or a fish.

The total number of endangered species of animals is given by

Total animals = mammal species + bird species + fish species

Total animals = 59 + 75 + 68  = 202

The probability of selecting a endangered mammal is

P(mammal) = no. of endangered mammal/total no. of endangered animals

P(mammal) = 59/202

The probability of selecting a endangered fish is

P(fish) = no. of endangered fish/total no. of endangered animals

P(fish) = 68/202

Finally, the probability of selecting either a mammal or a fish is

P(mammal or fish) = 59/202 + 68/202

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202

P(mammal or fish) = 0.6287

P(mammal or fish) = 62.87%

The ratio of boys to girls in a group is 4:1. If there are 33 more boys than girls, work out how many people there are in total.
MissTica

Total number of people is 55

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given ratio between boys and girls is 4:1. Let number of girls be x, so number of boys = 33 + x

⇒ 4x + x = x + 33 + x

⇒ 5x = 33 + 2x

⇒ 3x = 33

⇒ x = 11

Step 2:

Find total number of people.

33 + 2x = 33 + 22 = 55
