The answer is C.
Explanation:
The higher the negative number the lower the value in it so that means that the -5.4 is less than -3.2
I hope that clears this up a little and it’s not as confusing.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER IS CORRECT

Ulleksa [173]

A triangle is rotated around N to give the primed version.

A. Same shape and size -- TRUE. Rotation doesn't change shape or size.

B. Corresponding points are equidistant to N. That's TRUE, each point is rotated around N to get its corresponding point, which will be the same distance from N.

C. DN=D'N. TRUE, just an example of corresponding points.

D. Corresponding side lengths unequal, FALSE. Rotation doesn't change lengths.

I’m not 100% sure this is correct, because I’ve never done these before, but try 12, this is the answer I got from a reliable app that I usually use

They're just hired a new employee to work in your bike shop in one hour the employee burns 55 chocolate chip cookies if this rep

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

250 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

The employee burns 55 chocolate chip cookies

if this represented 22% of the days production

Let x = the total production of cookies for the day

how many cookies did you plan on producing that day?

22% of x = 55

22 / 100 * x = 55

0.22x = 55

Divide both sides by 0.22

x = 55 / 0.22

= 250

x = 250 cookies

Therefore, the total production of cookies for the day is 250

According to the WHO MONICA Project the mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg

Sati [7]

Answer:

a) Mean blood pressure for people in China.

b) 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c) 71.30% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d) 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e) Since Z when X = 135 is less than two standard deviations from the mean, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg

f) 157.44mmHg

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

If X is two standard deviations from the mean or more, it is considered unusual.

In this question:

$\mu = 128, \sigma = 23$

a.) State the random variable.

Mean blood pressure for people in China.

b.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 135.

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

$Z = \frac{135 - 128}{23}$

$Z = 0.3$

$Z = 0.3$ has a pvalue of 0.6179

1 - 0.6179 = 0.3821

38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 141.

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

$Z = \frac{141 - 128}{23}$

$Z = 0.565$

$Z = 0.565$ has a pvalue of 0.7140

71.30% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d.)Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 125 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 120. So

X = 125

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

$Z = \frac{125 - 128}{23}$

$Z = -0.13$

$Z = -0.13$ has a pvalue of 0.4483

X = 120

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

$Z = \frac{120 - 128}{23}$

$Z = -0.35$

$Z = -0.35$ has a pvalue of 0.3632

0.4483 - 0.3632 = 0.0851

8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e.) Is it unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg? Why or why not?

From b), when X = 135, Z = 0.3

Since Z when X = 135 is less than two standard deviations from the mean, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.

f.) What blood pressure do 90% of all people in China have less than?

This is the 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.28. So X when Z = 1.28. Then

X = 120

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

$1.28 = \frac{X - 128}{23}$

$X - 128 = 1.28*23$

$X = 157.44$

157.44mmHg
