Answer:

0.3085 = 30.85% probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 490 mg and variance of 400.

This means that \mu = 490, \sigma = \sqrt{400} = 20

What is the probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 500. So

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

Z = \frac{500 - 490}{20}

Z = 0.5

Z = 0.5 has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085

0.3085 = 30.85% probability that a randomly selected pill contains at least 500 mg of minerals

When making a book cover, Anwar adds an additional 20 square inches to the surface area to allow for overlap. How many square in
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

234 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of book, l=11 in

Width of book, w=8 in

Height of book, h=1in

Additional area required to overlap=20 square inches

We have to find how many square inches of paper to make  cover of one book.

We know that surface area of cuboid

S=2(lb+bh+hl)

Using the formula

Surface area of book

S=2(11\times 8+8\times 1+1\times 11)

S=214 in^2

Total paper used to make cover of one book

=Surface area of book +additional surface area

=214+20

=234in^2

Hence, Anwar will use paper to make cover of one book=234 square inches

Write the expression as a square of a monomial. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> a 81x^4
poizon [28]

Answer:

(9x²)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression 81x⁴, to write the expression as a square of a monomial, first we will assign a variable to the expression.

y = 81x⁴

Then we take the square root of both sides of the expression

√y = √81x⁴

y^½ = √81 × √x⁴

y^½ = 9x²

Squaring both sides of the resulting equation to get y back

(y^½)² = (9x²)²

y = (9x²)²

The expression as a square of a monomial is (9x²)²
