Answer:

<em>The length of the side along the river is 140 m</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equations</u>

To solve the problem, we need to recall the area of a trapezium is:

\displaystyle A=\frac{b1+b2}{2}.h

Where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the height of the trapezium.

The field to be bought by Mohan has a trapezium shape with a side along the road of side x and a side along the river of side 2x, as stated in the problem.

Knowing the height is h=100 m, and the area is 10500 m2:

\displaystyle \frac{x+2x}{2}\cdot 100=10500

Simplifying:

\displaystyle (3x)\cdot 50=10500

150x=10500

Dividing by 150:

x = 10500 / 150 = 70

x = 70 m

2x = 140 m

The length of the side along the river is 140 m

Vsevolod [243]

Solution:

It is given that two triangles Δ ABC and Δ X Y Z are similar by Side -Side - Side(SSS)  Similarity theorem.

So, the Statement which is given, that is →→∠B ≅ ∠Y and ∠B ≅ ∠Z, is inadequate for similarity criterion by SSS, as these statement are about angles of Triangles,not sides, which can't be true.

So, if the two triangles are Similar by SSS criterion , then the appropriate mathematical statement must be,

⇒\frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{BC}{ZY}=\frac{AC}{XZ}

Birth weights at a local hospital have a Normal distribution with a mean of 110 oz and a standard deviation of 15 oz. The propor
OLga [1]

Answer:

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is 0.1359 = 13.59%.

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:

\mu = 110, \sigma = 0.15

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 140 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 125. So

X = 140

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

Z = \frac{140 - 110}{15}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 125

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

Z = \frac{125 - 110}{15}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

0.9772 - 0.8413 = 0.1359

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is 0.1359 = 13.59%.

Costs would be nine dollars for the lemons and four dollars for the sugar ($-13.00). You end up losing only fifty cents throughout, so you would have had to sell (.5×25=12.50) 25 cups to pay for all but fifty cents.

Answer is 25 cups
