Answer:

The correct answer is - C. 24.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

mean μ = 65%

standard deviation δ = 7.1 %

solution:

Prob( X>70) = 1 - Prob(x<70)  

= P (x-μ/δ ≥ 70 -65/7.1)

= 1 - Prob( (70-65)/7.1)

= 1 - Prob ( z < 0.7042553)

= 0.24065

the percentage of students scoring 70 or more in the exam

= 24.065*100

= 24.1%

I need help figuring out when to use law of sine or law of cosine?
irina [24]
When you have angle and its corresponding (opposite) side then you need to use law of  sin. Problems 3,4,5(in 5 you need at first find angle X=180-92-62)


when you have two sides and angle between them, this is law of cos, problem 6,8

problem 7 you can use both, but if you can use both better to use law of sin, it is just easier

Roger served 5/8 pound of cracker wich was 2/3 of the entire box what was the weight of the crackers originally in the box
horrorfan [7]
Answer:
original weight of the box = 15 / 16 pounds

Explanation:
Assume that the original amount in the box is x.
We are given that:
5/8 pounds represent 2/3 of the total amount (x).
This can be translated into the following equation:
(2/3) x = 5 / 8

Now, we will solve for x as follows:
(2/3) x = 5 / 8
Multiply both sides by 24 to get rid of the denominators as follows:
(2/3) x * 24 = (5 / 8) * 24
16 x = 15
Divide both sides by 16 to isolate the x as follows:
x = 15 / 16 pounds

Hope this helps :)

2 3/5 convert to decinal
Leokris [45]

So we know that 1/5=0.2

Then we take 5/5=1.0

Then we solve 2*1.0=2.0

Now we solve 1/5+1/5+1/5 or 1/5*3=0.6

So then the correct answer is 2.6

Hope this helps!!!
