Answer: 0.206

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of American men is normally distributed :

Mean height (μ) = 69.7 inch

Standard deviation (σ) = 2.8 inch

Probability that height of a randomly selected man is more than 72 inches

P(X > 72)

Obtain the standardized score (Zscore):

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (72 - 69.7) / 2.8

Zscore = 2.3 / 2.8

Zscore = 0.8214285

Zscore = 0.8214

Using the Z probability calculator ;

P(Z > 0.8214) = 0.20571

Probability of selecting a man whose height is more Than 72 is 0.206

Find the value of cos x° + sin yº ​
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

1.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The given arc is a part of a unit circle centered at origin.

The x-coordinate on the unit circle represent the cosine value and y-coordinate on the unit circle represent sine value.

So, for angle equal to x°, the x coordinate represents cos (x)°.

So, cos x° = 0.86

Similarly, the y-coordinate of angle y represent \sin y°.

So, \sin y° = 0.98

Therefore, the value of cos (x)° + \sin y° = 0.86 + 0.98 = 1.84.

Only the smartest person in their math class can help me with this difficult problem!!!
vodomira [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

\tt{(5 {x}^{3}  - 3x + 6) - (2 {x}^{2}  - 4x + 8)}

While subtracting , the sign of each term of second expression changes & remove the parentheses.

⟶ \tt{5 {x}^{3}  - 3x + 6 - 2 {x}^{2}  + 4x - 8}

Combine like terms. Like terms are those which have the same base. Only coefficients of like terms can be added or subtracted.

⟶ \tt{5 {x}^{3}  - 3x + 4x + 6 - 8 - 2 {x}}^{2}

⟶ \tt{5 {x}^{3}  + x - 2 - 2 {x}^{2} }

In standard from , the expression should be written in such a way that the power of variables goes from highest to lowest.

\red{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer :  \boxed{ \tt{5 {x}^{3}  - 2 {x}^{2}  + x - 2}}}}}}

Hope I helped ! ♡

Have a wonderful day / night ! ツ

Jay King, owner of a local Bed and Bath Store knows that his customers will only pay at most, $299 for a blow up bed. Assuming J
Roman55 [17]
If you would like to know the price Jay can pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed, you can calculate this using the following steps:

100% + 40% = 140%

140% of x is $299
140% * x = 299
140/100 * x = 299      /*100/140
x = 299 * 100 / 140
x = $213.6

40% of $213.6 = 40% * 213.6 = 40/100 * 213.6 = 85.44
$213.6 + $85.44 = $299

The correct result would be $213.6.
