Answer:

0.961

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this, find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of 130 pounds:

Using the function normalcdf( on a TI calculator, we get:

normalcdf(-1000, 130, 100, 17) = 0.961

The square root of 83 can be platted on the number line below
wel
The answer is some number between 9 and 10.
Explanation:
√83
is an irrational number. You won't be able to simplify it any further either, since it doesn't have any perfect square factors.
However, you will be able to tell between which two numbers it lies in.
9^2 is 81 and 10^2 is 100
. Therefore, you can say that a certain number between 9 and 10 is 83 when squared.
If you're looking for an exact answer, then it will be 9.11043357914... (I got that using a calculator).

Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

around 4.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythaogrean theorem we get <em>sqrt 32</em> or <em>4sqrt2 </em>for the diagonal of the square.

To get x we can use Pythagorean theorem again to set up an equation,

32 + x^2 = 49

This gives us x = <em>sqrt17,</em> which is approximately 4.1231 or around 4.1
