8 0

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Formula for 13th term:</u>

t(13) = a + 12d, where a- first term, d- common difference

<u>Given</u>

  • t(13) = 59
  • d = -2
  • a = ?

<u>As per the formula for 13th term:</u>

  • 59 = a + 12*(-2)
  • 59 = a - 24
  • a = 59 + 24
  • a = 83

If m L=65, then m LJK=___ ????? PLS HELP ASAP
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If angle L = 65 then the top angle for the triangle LMJ has to be 25 degrees as M is a right angle (or at least has to be for this problem to be possible)

the math to figure it out is 90+65+x=180 <-- due to triangles are 180 degrees inside which simplifies to 25 after that you just have to at 25 to itself 25+25 to get 50 which is the angle of J

A firm’s marketing manager believes that total sales for next year will follow the normal distribution, with a mean of $3.2 mill
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year is $3.67 million.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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 question, we have that:

In millions of dollars,

\mu = 3.2, \sigma = 0.25

Determine the sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year.

This is the 100 - 3 = 97th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.97. So X when Z = 1.88.

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

1.88 = \frac{X - 3.2}{0.25}

X - 3.2 = 0.25*1.88

X = 3.67

The sales level that has only a 3% chance of being exceeded next year is $3.67 million.
