Answer:

So the answer is 2.5615 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the river is 2.5 feet deep, and when you find that 9% is, using the cross-multiplication formula to find the percent then 9% of 2.5 is 0.225, and when you add that to 2.5 you get 2.725, and when you find 6% of 2.725, you get 0.1635, and since it dropped, you subtract, and you end up with 2.5615

How much greater is the median number of pairs of shoes in the inventory at the Golf Pro Shop than the median number of pairs of

Dovator [93]

The difference between the median of the golf pro box and tennis pro box is 20.

<h3>What is Median?</h3>

The median is the middle value of an entire data set. If the number of data points(observations) in the set is odd then the middle value is the median but, for an even number of observations, the median is calculated by finding the means for the two middle data points.

As we know that the vertical line in the box plot is the median. Therefore, the median of the Golf pro shop is 40, while the median of the tennis pro shop is 20.

The difference between the median of the golf pro box and tennis pro box

= 40 - 20

= 20

Hence, the difference between the median of the golf pro box and tennis pro box is 20.

Compute the surface integral over the given oriented surface: F=y3i+8j−xk, portion of the plane x+y+z=1 in the octant x,y,z≥0, d

tresset_1 [31]

Parameterize the surface (call it $S$ ) by

$\vec s(u,v)=u\,\vec\imath+v\,\vec\jmath+(1-u-v)\,\vec k$

with $0\le u\le1$ and $0\le v\le1$ . Take the normal vector to $S$ to be

$\vec s_v\times\vec s_u=-\vec\imath-\vec\jmath-\vec k$

Then the integral of $\vec F$ over $S$ with the given orientation is

$\displaystyle\iint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\int_0^1\int_0^1(v^3\,\vec\imath+8\vec\jmath-u\,\vec k)\cdot(-\vec\imath-\vec\jmath-\vec k)\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv$

$=\displaystyle\int_0^1\int_0^1(-v^3-8+u)\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=\boxed{-\frac{31}4}$
