Answer:

75%

88.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean = 70

Standard deviation = 12

Since the data is said to be extremely skewed, we apply Chebyshev's theorem rather than the empirical rule :

The minimum proportion of observation between 46 and 94

Chebyshev's theorem :

1 - 1 / k²

k = number of standard deviations from the mean

k = (94 - 70) / 12 = 24 / 12 = 2

Hence, we have ;

1 - 1/2²

1 - 1/4

1 - 0.25 = 0.75

Hence, The minimum proportion of observation between 46 and 94 is 75%

Between 36 and 106 :

k = (106 - 70) / 12 ;

k = 36/12 = 3

Hence,

1 - 1/3² = 1 - 1/9 = 8/9 = 0.8888 = 88.89%

The minimum proportion of observation between 34 and 106 is 88.89%

A farmer wants to enclose a rectangular field that borders a river with 400 feet of fencing material. if the farmer does not fen
ICE Princess25 [194]
Let each side perpendicular to the river be "x".Then the side parallel to the river is "400-2x".
The formula for Area = width*length
A(x) = x(400-2x)
A(x) = 400x - 2x^2
You have a quadratic with a = -2 and b = 400
Maximum Area occurs where x = -b/2a = -400/(2*-2) = 100 ft. (width)
length = 400-2x = 400-2*100 =  200 ft (length)

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (7, −8) and (−4, 6) ?
Gala2k [10]
(7,-8)(-4,6)
slope = 6 - (-8) / (-4 - 7) = (6 + 8) / -11 = -14/11

point slope : y - y1= m(x - x1)
(-4,6)...x1 = -4 and y1 = 6
now we sub
y - 6 = -14/11(x - (-4) =
y - 6 = -14/11(x + 4) <===
