So, since we know the coordinates for the diameter segment, let's see how long it is, recall that the radius is half of the diameter, thus

\bf 
~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -8 &,& -6~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ -4 &,& -14~)
\end{array}\\\\\\
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{[-4-(-8)]^2+[-14-(-6)]^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{(-4+8)^2+(-14+6)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{4^2+(-8)^2}
\\\\\\
d=\sqrt{80}\qquad \textit{therefore the radius is }\qquad r=\cfrac{\sqrt{80}}{2}

now, since the diameter goes through the center of the circle, the midpoint of it, will be the center of the circle then,

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -8 &,& -6~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ -4 &,& -14~)
\end{array}~~ %   coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{ x_2 +  x_1}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{ y_2 +  y_1}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{-4-8}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-14-6}{2} \right)\implies (-6~,~-10)

and since we know the coordinates for the center and the radius, let's plug those two in

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ 
(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2
\qquad 
center~~(\stackrel{-6}{ h},\stackrel{-10}{ k})\qquad \qquad 
radius=\stackrel{\frac{\sqrt{80}}{2}}{ r}
\\\\\\\
[x-(-6)]^2+[y-(-10)]^2=\left( \frac{\sqrt{80}}{2} \right)^2
\\\\\\
(x+6)^2+(y+10)^2=\cfrac{(\sqrt{80})^2}{2^2}\implies (x+6)^2+(y+10)^2=\cfrac{80}{4}
\\\\\\
(x+6)^2+(y+10)^2=20

"is it appropriate to use the normal approximation for the sampling distribution of"
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer: Normal approximation can be used for discrete sampling distributions, such as Binomial distribution and Poisson distribution if certain conditions are met.

Step-by-step explanation: We will give conditions under which the Binomial and Poisson distribitions, which are discrete, can be approximated by the Normal distribution. This procedure is called normal approximation.

1. Binomial distribution: Let the sampling distribution be the binomial distribution B(n,p), where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success. It can be approximated by the Normal distribution with the mean of np and the variance of np(1-p), denoted by N(np,np(1-p)) if the following condition is met:

n>9\left(\frac{1-p}{p}\right)\text{ and } n>9\left(\frac{p}{1-p}\right)

2. Poisson distribution: Let the sampling distribution be the Poisson distribution P(\lambda) where \lambda is its mean. It can be approximated by the Normal distribution with the mean \lambda and the variance \lambda, denoted by N(\lambda,\lambda) when \lambda is large enough, say \lambda>1000 (however, different sources may give different lower value for \lambda but the greater it is, the better the approximation).

The length between the bases on a Major League Baseball diamond is 90 feet. Allyson wants to make a scale drawing of a baseball
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

\text{The scale is }\frac{1}{432}

Step-by-step explanation:

Length between the bases on a major league diamond = 90 feet

1 feet = 12 inches

90 feet = 90 × 12

             = 1080 inches

Length between the bases on a major league baseball diamond on scale drawing = 2.5 inches

\text{Scale factor = }\frac{\text{Actual length}}{\text{Scale length}}\\\\\text{Scale factor = }\frac{1080}{2.5}=432

\text{Hence, the scale is }\frac{1}{432}

A bird flies from the bottom of a canyon that is 71 4/5 feet below sea level to a nest that is 875 7/10 feet above sea level. Wh
Rainbow [258]

The difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is 947 1/2 feet

<h3>What is the difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Nest = 71 4/5 feet above the seal level

Bottom of canyon = 875 7/10 below sea level

Below sea level means negative

So, we have:

Nest = 71 4/5 feet

Bottom of canyon = -875 7/10

The difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is calculated as

Difference = |Nest - Bottom of canyon|

This gives

Difference = |71 4/5 - (-875 7/10)|

Evaluate the difference

Difference = |947 1/2|

Remove the absolute bracket

Difference = 947 1/2

Hence, the difference in elevation between the bottom of the canyon and the​ bird's nest is 947 1/2 feet
