Use the following information for the question. Male players at the high school, college and professional ranks use a regulation

basketball that weighs 22.0 ounces with a standard deviation of 1.0 ounce. Assume that the weights of basketballs are approximately normally distributed. Roughly what percentage of regulation basketballs weigh more than 23.1 ounces

Answer:

13.567%

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question, using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 23.1 ounces

μ is the population mean = 22.0 ounces

σ is the population standard deviation = 1.0 ounce

More than = Greater than with the sign = >

Hence, for x > 23.1 ounces

z = 23.1 - 22.0/1.0

= 1.1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<23.1) = 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 1 - P(x<23.1)

P(x>23.1) = 1 - 0.86433

P(x>23.1) = 0.13567

Converting to percentage

= 0.13567 × 100

= 13.567%

Therefore, the percentage of regulation basketballs that weigh more than 23.1 ounces is 13.567%

Which of the following are roots of the following polynomial x^3-11x^2+33x+45
Mandarinka [93]
For x^3-11x^2+33x+45 , we can make it an equation so <span>x^3-11x^2+33x+45=0. Next, we can find out if -1 or -3 is a factor. If -1 is a factor, than (x+1) is factorable. Using synthetic division, we get 

      x^2-12x+45
       ___ ________________________
x+1 | x^3-11x^2+33x+45

      - (x^3+x^2)
       _________________________
            -12x^2+33x+45
          - (-12x^2-12x)
          ______________
            45x+45
         -(45x+45)
___________
0


Since that works, it's either B or D. We just have to figure out when
</span> x^2-12x+45 equals 0, since there are 3 roots and we already found one. Using the quadratic formula, we end up getting (12+-sqrt(144-180))/2=
(12+-sqrt (-36))/2. Since sqrt(-36) is 6i, and 6i/2=3i, it's pretty clear that B is our answer

Find the measures of the exterior angles.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles. (Non-adjacent interior angles may also be referred to as remote interior angles.) FACTS: An exterior ∠ is equal to the addition of the two Δ angles not right next to it.
