Answer:

83.2 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we're going to find the area of the bigger triangle (the shaded and unshaded parts together) and then the area of the smaller triangle (the unshaded part) and then subtract that from the area of the bigger triangle. We're going to use the equation: Area=1/2 x base x height. So the base of the big triangle is 16, and the height is (10.4+8.6 = 19). Put into the equation this looks like this: Area=1/2 x 16 x 19, so by multiplying we find that the area is 152 cm^2. Next we find the small triangle's area, Area=1/2 x 16 x 8.6, so the area is 68.8. Then to find the area of the shaded part, we subtract the unshaded area (68.8) from the whole area (152), 152-68.8=83.2.

f(h(x))= 2x -21

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= x^3 - 6

h(x)=\sqrt[3]{2x-15}

WE need to find f(h(x)), use composition of functions

Plug in h(x)

f(h(x))=f(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})

Now we plug in f(x) in f(x)

f(h(x))=f(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})=(\sqrt[3]{2x-15})^3 - 6

cube and cube root will get cancelled

f(h(x))= 2x-15 -6= 2 x-21

Christopher is analyzing a circle, y^2 + x^2 = 121, and a linear function g(x). Will they intersect?

Sav [38]

Circle: x^2+y^2=121=11^2 => circle with radius 11 and centred on origin.
g(x)=-2x+12 (from given table, find slope and y-intercept)
We can see from the graphics that g(x) will be almost tangent to the circle at (0,11), and that both intersection points will be at x>=11.
To show that this is the case,
substitute g(x) into the circle
x^2+(-2x+12)^2=121
x^2+4x^2-2*2*12x+144-121=0
5x^2-48x+23=0
Solve using the quadratic formula,
x=(48 &pm; √ (48^2-4*5*23) )/10
=0.5058 or 9.0942
So both solutions are real and both have positive x-values.

Bryson drove 42 miles on Monday. On Tuesday, he drove 12 miles less than he did on Monday. Find the ratio of miles driven on Tue

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Tuesday : Total = 30 : 72 = 5 : 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 42 miles

Tuesday: 42 - 12 = 30 miles

Monday + Tuesday: 42 + 30 = 72 miles

Tuesday : Total = 30 : 72 = 5 : 12

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

a) 0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

b) 0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

c) 0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

d) 0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

e) They last at least 4.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 3.6, \sigma = 0.4$

(a) What fraction of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.6.

X = 4.2

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

X = 3.6

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

$Z = \frac{3.6 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5

0.9332 - 0.5 = 0.4332

0.4332 = 43.32% of the calls last between 3.6 and 4.2 minutes

(b) What fraction of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668 = 6.68% of the calls last more than 4.2 minutes

(c) What fraction of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4.2. So

X = 5

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

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 4.2

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

$Z = \frac{4.2 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 1.5$

$Z = 1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9332

0.9998 - 0.9332 = 0.0666

0.0666 = 6.66% of the calls last between 4.2 and 5 minutes

(d) What fraction of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

X = 5

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

$Z = \frac{5 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = 3.5$

$Z = 3.5$ has a pvalue of 0.9998

X = 3

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

$Z = \frac{3 - 3.6}{0.4}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.9998 - 0.0668 = 0.9330

0.9330 = 93.30% of the calls last between 3 and 5 minutes

(e) As part of her report to the president, the director of communications would like to report the length of the longest (in duration) 4% of the calls. What is this time?

At least X minutes

X is the 100-4 = 96th percentile, which is found when Z has a pvalue of 0.96. So X when Z = 1.75.

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

$1.75 = \frac{X - 3.6}{0.4}$

$X - 3.6 = 0.4*1.75$

$X = 4.3$

They last at least 4.3 minutes
