We have been given that the lengths of trout in a lake are normally distributed with a mean of 30 inches and a standard deviation of 4.5 inches.

We are asked to find the z-score of a trout with a length of 28.2 inches.

To find z score of the given length  we will use z score formula.

z=\frac{x- \mu }{\sigma}, where x is the given value of which we want to find out z score, \mu is mean of the given data and \sigma is standard deviation of data.

After substituting our given values in this formula we will get,

z=\frac{28.2-30}{4.5}\\
\\
z=\frac{-1.8}{ 4.5}\\
\\
z=\frac{-2}{5}=-0.4

Therefore, z  score of a trout with a length of 28.2 inches is -0.4.

Which of the symbols correctly relates the two numbers?<br><br> 100 ? 20
rewona [7]
We can see that 100 is greater than 20.

So we insert the greater than symbol.

And the greater than symbol is   >, note the two strokes faces the bigger number

100 > 20

I hope this explains it.

1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1. True

2. False.

3. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00: it is true because the maximum probability (value) is one (1), therefore, the total (maximum) area is also one (1).

<em>Hence, for continuous probability distribution: probability = area</em>.

2. For any continuous probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: False because it has an infinite number of possible values, which can not be counted or uncountable.

<em>Hence, it cannot be computed. </em>

3. For any discrete probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: True because it has a finite number of possible values, which are countable or can be counted.

<em>Hence, it can be computed. </em>

1. Popeye is lifting Olive Oyl off the ground by pulling her upward with a force of 108.1 N. She is pretty thin so she only weig
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

1 m/s2

Step-by-step explanation:

Olive Oyl's weight = 10 × 9.81 = 98.1 N

This weight is a force acting downward because it is due to gravity.

Popeye pulls Olive Oyl up with a force of 108.1 N. Both forces act vertically but in opposite directions. Hence their resultant, R, is their difference and is in the direction of the larger force.

R = 108.1 N - 98.1 N = 10 N

This force causes an acceleration, a, on the mass, m, of Popeye.

R = ma

a = R/m = 10 N/10 kg = 1 m/s2
