2. Suppose the temperature that most foods can stay bacteria free in restaurants varies approximately according to a normal dist

ribution with a mean of 31.3 degrees and a standard deviation of 2.8 degrees Fahrenheit. The Federal Department of Agriculture mandates that food inspectors make sure that all restaurants fine a location up to $1,500.00 if the temperature in cold food storage goes above the bottom 15% of that distribution for safety and insurance purposes. What temperature correlates to the bottom 15% of this distribution?

Answer:

28.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean, m = 31.3

Standard deviation, s = 2.8

Since, data is normally distributed :

P(x < 0.15) gives a Z value of - 1.036

Using the Zscore formula :

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

-1.036 = (x - 31.3) / 2.8

-1.036 * 2.8 = x - 31.3

-2.9008 = x - 31.3

-2.9008 + 31.3 = x

28.3992 = x

The temperature which correlates to the bottom 15% of the distribution is 28.4

Points S,U, and T are the midpoints of the sides of PQR. Which statements are correct ? 1/2QP=UT 1/2TS=RQ SU=PR SU||RP UT=RP
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

\frac{1}{2} QP = UT

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN : In ΔPQR

              S is the mid point of QP

              U is the mid point of PR

              T is the mid point of  QR

Solution :

i) is true i.e \frac{1}{2} QP = UT

Refer the attached file

By mid segment theorem i.e. In a triangle, the line joining the midpoints of any two sides will be parallel to the third side and that same line joining the midpoints is also half of length of third side .

UT is the line joining the two mid points . So, by theorem given above UT is parallel to PQ and  1/2QP=UT.

So, (i) statement is true i.e. \frac{1}{2} QP = UT

Can someone answer this please??
anyanavicka [17]

  volume of A = 1728

volume of B = 729  

<span> (1728 / 729) = (a / b)^3  (a = width of A, b = width of B)
  a / b = cube root (1728 / 729)  = 4/3   </span><span> b = 10 (given)
a / 10 = 4/3 </span><span>
  a = 40/3 = 13.33333</span>
 so width of A is 13.33m
