What is the total height of all the plants?
Serhud [2]

Answer: 6 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8 x 2 = 1/8 x 2/1 = 2/8 = 1/4

1/4 x 3 = 1/4 x 3/1 = 3/4

3/8 x 4 = 3/8 x 4/1 = 12/8 = 1 4/8 = 1 1/2

1/2 x 3 = 1/2 x 3/1 = 3/2 = 1 1/2

5/8 x 1 = 5/8 x 1/1 = 5/8

3/4 x 2 = 3/4 x 2/1 = 6/4 = 1 2/4 = 1 1/2

Start with the big number first.

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

1 1/2 = 1 4/8

5/8 =     5/8

3/4 =     6/8

1/4 =      2/8

Add them all up.

1 4/8 + 1 4/8 = 2 8/8 = 3

3 + 1 4/8 = 4 4/8

4 4/8 + 5/8 = 4 9/8 = 5 1/8

5 1/8 + 6/8 = 5 7/8

5 7/8 + 2/8 = 5 9/8 = 6 1/8

The lengths of infants at birth in a certain hospital are normally distributed with a mean of 18 inches and a standard deviation
vaieri [72.5K]
Mean, m = 18 in
Standard deviation, SD = 2.2 in
Range: 16 ≤ X ≤ 21 in

Calculating Z value,
Z = (X-m)/SD

Then,
Z1 = (16-18)/2.2 ≈ -0.91
Z2 = (21-18)/2.2 ≈ 1.36
From Z table, and at Z1 = -0.91, and Z2 = 1.36;
P(16) = 0.1814
P(21) = 0.9131

Therefore,
P(16≤X≤21) = 0.9131 - 0.1814 = 0.7317
The probability that a child selected randomly measures between 16 and 21 in is 0.7317.

The product of a+3 and -2a^2+15a+6 is -2a^3+xa^2+51a+18. What is the value of x? Is it 8 ,9,12 or15?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

x = 9 ⇒ second answer

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ (a + 3)(-2a² + 15a + 6) =

  -2a³ + 15a² + 6a - 6a² + 45a + 18 =

  -2a³ + 9a² + 51a + 18

∵ (a + 3)(-2a² + 15a + 6) = -2a³ + xa² + 51a + 18

∴ -2a³ + 9a² + 51a + 18 = -2a³ + xa² + 51a + 18

∴ x = 9
