Answer: A floating-point number is one where the position of the decimal point can "float" rather than being in a fixed position within a number. floating point is a variable type that is used to store floating-point number values.

You are going to use an incline plane to lift a heavy object to the top of a shelving unit with a height of 5 ft. The base of th
loris [4]

Answer:

15.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The inclined plane, the base of and the shelving unit form the shape of a right angled triangle.

The hypotenuse is the length of the inclined plane, h.

The base of the triangle is 15 ft.

The height of the triangle is 5 ft.

To find the hypotenuse, h, we have to use Pythagoras rule:

h^2 = a^2 + b^2

where a = height of the triangle

b = base of the triangle

Therefore:

h^2 = 5^2 + 15^2\\\\h^2 = 25 + 225 = 250\\\\h = \sqrt{250}\\ \\h = 15.8 ft

The inclined plane is 15.8 ft long.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)  

Where \mu the mean and \sigma  the deviation

Since the distribution for X is normal then we can conclude that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

\mu_{\bar X} = \mu

\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)  

Where \mu the mean and \sigma  the deviation

Since the distribution for X is normal then we can conclude that the distribution for the sample mean \bar X is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

\mu_{\bar X} = \mu

\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}
