Answer:

A system has infinitely many solutions when it is consistent and the number of variables is more than the number of nonzero rows in the rref of the matrix. For example if the rref is ��has solution set (4-3z, 5+2z, z) where z can be any real number.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

For this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given as follows:

$\mu = 247, \sigma = 60$

For item a, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 167, hence:

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

Z = (167 - 247)/60

Z = -1.33.

Z = -1.33 has a p-value of 0.0918.

Hence the percentage is of 9.18%.

For item b, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 367, hence:

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

Z = (367 - 247)/60

Z = 2.

Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.9772.

Hence the percentage is of 97.72%.

For item c, the proportion is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 247, hence:

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

Z = (247 - 247)/60

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a p-value of 0.5.

Hence the percentage is of 50%.

For item d, the proportion is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 350, hence:

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

Z = (350 - 247)/60

Z = 1.72

Z = 1.72 has a p-value of 0.9573.

1 - 0.9573 = 0.0427.

Hence the percentage is of 4.27%.

For item e, the proportion is the p-value of Z when Z = 67, hence:

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

Z = (67 - 247)/60

Z = -3.

Z = -3 has a p-value of 0.0013.

Hence the percentage is of 0.13%.

For item f, the proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 300 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 200, hence:

X = 300:

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

Z = (300 - 247)/60

Z = 0.88.

Z = 0.88 has a p-value of 0.8106.

X = 200:

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

Z = (200 - 247)/60

Z = -0.78.

Z = -0.78 has a p-value of 0.2177.

0.8106 - 0.2177 = 0.5929.

Hence the percentage is 59.29%.

For item g, the proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 400 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 360, hence:

X = 400:

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

Z = (400 - 247)/60

Z = 2.55.

Z = 2.55 has a p-value of 0.9946.

X = 360:

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

Z = (360 - 247)/60

Z = 1.88.

Z = 1.88 has a p-value of 0.97.

0.9946 - 0.97 = 0.0246

Hence the percentage is 2.46%.

For items h and i, the distribution is symmetric, hence median = mean and the percentages are of 50%.

Based on the information given, can you determine that the quadrilateral must be a parallelogram? Explain. Given XY = WZ and XW

Virty [35]

The best answer is Letter C - Yes, opposite sides are congruent.

If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent, then you'll always have two opposite pairs of parallel sides. Congruent means that they measure the same. Since two congruent sides separating the other pair of opposite sides must always keep those opposite lines the same distance apart, then, the opposite sides are also parallel.

What is the probability of the following, (for each answer, enter an exact number)

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Probability of certain event P(E) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

An event or program A that is likely to occur has a probability of 1, which indicates that there will always be an event or a program.

Probability of certain event P(E) = 1
