Given:

Two similar rectangles.

To find:

The area of the larger rectangle.

Solution:

Let x be the other side of the larger rectangle.

Corresponding sides of similar figures are always congruent.

$\dfrac{x}{1}=\dfrac{4}{2}$

$x=2$

The other side of larger rectangle is 2 cm.

We know that, area of rectangle is

$Area=Length\times Width$

So, area of the larger rectangle is

$Area=4\times 2$

$Area=8$

Therefore, the area of the larger rectangle is 8 sq. cm.

The amounts a soft drink machine is designed to dispense for each drink are normally distributed, with a mean of 12.1 fluid ounc

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$\mu = 12.1\\\sigma = 0.3$

a) Find the probability that the drink is less than 11.9 fluid ounces

We are supposed to find P(x<11.9)

x= 11.9

We will use z score formula :

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$z=\frac{11.9-12.1}{0.3}$

$z=-0.67$

Refer the z table

So, P(z<-0.67) = 0.2514

Hence the probability that the drink is less than 11.9 fluid ounces is 0.2514

b)Find the probability that the drink is between 11.6 and 11.9 fluid ounces

x= 11.6

We will use z score formula :

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$z=\frac{11.6-12.1}{0.3}$

$z=-1.67$

x= 11.9

We will use z score formula :

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$z=\frac{11.9-12.1}{0.3}$

$z=-0.67$

We are supposed to find P(11.6<x<11.9)

So, P(11.6<x<11.9)= P(x<11.9)-P(x<11.6)

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= P(z<-0.67)-P(z<-1.67)

Refer the z table

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= P(z<-0.67)-P(z<-1.67)

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= 0.2514-0.0475

P(-1.67<z<-0.67)= 0.2039

So, the probability that the drink is between 11.6 and 11.9 fluid ounces is 0.2039.

c)Find the probability that the drink is more than 12.6 fluid ounces

We are supposed to find P(x>12.6)

x= 12.6

We will use z score formula :

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$z=\frac{12.6-12.1}{0.3}$

$z=1.67$

Refer the z table

P(x>12.6)=1-P(x<12.6)

P(z>1.67)=1-P(z<1.67)

P(z>1.67)=1-0.9525

P(z>1.67)=0.0475

Hence the probability that the drink is more than 12.6 fluid ounces is 0.0475

d) Is the drink containing more than 12.6 fluid ounces an unusual event?

Since p value is less than alpha (0.05)

Answer = No, because the probability that a drink containing more than 12.6 fluid ounces is less than 0.05, this event is not unusual.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

5 or 6

Step-by-step explanation:

So I did it in a different way than shown in rsm classes. I said that the speed was x-2 and x.

then I said the distance was 6 and 15. If the time taken was 1 hour more, then we can come up with this equation:

Since the time is 6/x-2 or 15/x

15/x-6/x-2=1

multiply everything to get a common denominator then cancel it out to get

(15x-30)-6x=x^2-2x

11x-30=x^2

x^2-11x+30=0

(x-5)(x-6) is factored form.

so x=5 or x=6. this means that the speed of the boat is either 5km/h or 6 km/h

At the circus, a clown is shot from a cannon. This situation can be modeled by the function: h = – 16t2 + 45t + 15, where 'h' is

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The maximum height is 46.64 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take the derivative of h whit respect to t and equal this to zero we would find the value of t which corresponds to the maximum h.

So, we have the function h(t):

$h(t)=-16t^{2} + 45t + 15$

Taking the derivative, we have:

$\frac{dh(t)}{dt}=-32t + 45=0$

Now, we solve it for t:

$t=\frac{45}{32}=1.4\: s$

Finally, we put this value of t into the original equation.

$h(t)=-16(1.4)^{2} + 45(1.4) + 15$

$h_{max}=46.64\: ft$

Therefore, the maximum height is 46.64 feet. All the given options are wrong, the one that comes closest is option A.

I hope it helps you!
