Answer: 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be a random variable that represents the speed of the drivers.

Given: population mean : M = 72 miles ,

Standard deviation: s= 3.2 miles

The probability that the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution:

P(70\leq X\leq 80)=P(\frac{70-72}{3.2}\leq \frac{X-M}{s}\leq\frac{80-72}{3.2})\\\\= P(-0.625\leq Z\leq 2.5)\ \ \ \ \ [Z=\frac{X-M}{s}]\\\\=P(Z\leq2.5)-P(Z\leq -0.625)\\\\\\ =0.9938-0.2660\ \ \ [\text{Using p-value calculator}]\\\\=0.7278

Hence, 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.

A ball is shot into the air using a brand new super-high-tech robotic arm to help baseball players practice catch fly balls.
stepladder [879]

Answer:

69 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+5

where

h(t) is the height of the ball

t is the time in seconds

we know that the given equation is a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex is the maximum

so

the y-coordinate of the vertex represent the maximum height of the ball

Convert the quadratic equation into vertex form

The equation in vertex form is equal to

y=(x-h)^{2}+k

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+5

h(t)-5=-16t^{2}+64t

h(t)-5=-16(t^{2}-4t)

h(t)-5-64=-16(t^{2}-4t+4)

h(t)-69=-16(t^{2}-4t+4)

h(t)-69=-16(t-2)^{2}

h(t)=-16(t-2)^{2}+69

the vertex is the point (2,69)

therefore

The maximum height is 69 ft

Help plz what is 7-6v=-5-8v
kirill115 [55]

<u><em>v=-6 is the right answer. </em></u> First you had to subtract by 7 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, 7-6v-7=-5-8v-7. And then simplify, and it gave us, -6v=-8v-12. You can also add by 8v from both sides of equation, and it gave us, -6v+8v=-8v-12+8v. Next simplify, and it gave us, 2v=-12. Then you divide by 2 from both sides of equation, and it gave us, \frac{2v}{2}=\frac{-12}{2}. And finally simplify, and it gave us the answer is <u><em>v=-6 is the right answer.</em></u> Hope this helps! And thank you for posting your question at here on brainly, and have a great day. -Charlie
