Answer:

√85

Step-by-step explanation:

for this, you will probably need to draw a graph. Plot the points, and then you will notice that you can draw a triangle with one side being the x-axis ( go on to (-6,0) then drop down unitll you hit the point (-6;-7)

// use the pythagoream theorem to find the length

the distance of the leg on the x-axis is 6 (calculate 0-(-6))

the distance of the leg that is dropping down is -7 (calculate 0-(-7))

then we have 2 legs and need to find the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

substitute :

6^2 + 7^2 = c^2

36+49 = 85

c= √85

soybean meal is 18% protein, cornmeal is 19% protein.. how many pounds of each should be mixed in order to get 360lb mixture tha

seraphim [82]

S=weight of soybean protein, C=weight of cornmeal protein.
Total weight of each protein is 0.18S+0.19C=0.17×360=61.2 lb.
Total weight of meal is S+C=360 lb. So S=360-C.
Therefore 0.18(360-C)+0.19C=61.2, 64.8-0.18C+0.19C=61.2, 0.01C=-3.6.
Clearly we would get a negative value for C. When you look at the question you will realise that there is a larger percentage of protein in the ingredients than there is in the mixture. The expected amount of protein in the mixture should be between 18% and 19%. Please check your figures.

Answer:

3 0 -7 4

Step-by-step explanation:

you figure this out by looking at where you know the x or y value is and you find the line at that coordinate and then you look at where the other value is (x or y)

4. The distribution of blood cholesterol level in the population of young men aged 20 to 34 years is close to Normal, with mean

Pie

Answer:

a) 38.59% probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

b) By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean of the distribution of the sample mean would be 188 milligrams per deciliter

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 188, \sigma = 41$

a. Find the probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 200. So

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

$Z = \frac{200 - 188}{41}$

$Z = 0.29$

$Z = 0.29$ has a pvalue of 0.6141

1 - 0.6141 = 0.3859

38.59% probability that a young man (aged 20 to 34) has a cholesterol level greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter.

b. Suppose you measure the cholesterol level of 100 young men chosen at random and calculate the sample mean. If you did this many times, i. what would be the mean of the distribution of the sample mean

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean of the distribution of the sample mean would be 188 milligrams per deciliter
