Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/2 yards of ribbon is 7 1/2 feet.  (3 feet per yard)

She had 2 feet 8 inches left over after using a certain amount for the curtains.

So 2 feet 8 inches converted to fractions is 2 2/3 feet.

So our answer is the difference between 7 1/2 and 2 2/3 which is 4 5/6 feet.

Convert 4 5/6 feet to inches (12 inches in 1 feet) gives us a final answer of

<u>58 inches</u>

The prices of all college textbooks follow a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of $113 and a standard deviation of $12. Using
Soloha48 [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the empirical rule states that for a normally distributed random variable,

  • 68.27% of the data lies within one standard deviation of the mean.

  • 95.45% of the data lies within two standard deviations of the mean.

  • 99.73% of the data lies within three standard deviations of the mean.

In mathematical notation, as shown in the figure below (for a standard normal distribution), the empirical rule is described as

                             \Phi(\mu \ - \ \sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ \sigma) \ = \ 0.6827 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.}) \\ \\ \\ \Phi(\mu \ - \ 2\sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ 2\sigma) \ = \ 0.9545 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.}) \\ \\ \\ \Phi}(\mu \ - \ 3\sigma \ \leq X \ \leq \mu \ + \ 3\sigma) \ = \ 0.9973 \qquad (4 \ \text{s.f.})

where the symbol \Phi (the uppercase greek alphabet phi) is the cumulative density function of the normal distribution, \mu is the mean and \sigma is the standard deviation of the normal distribution defined as N(\mu, \ \sigma).

According to the empirical rule stated above, the interval that contains the prices of 99.7% of college textbooks for a normal distribution N(113, \ 12),

                \Phi(113 \ - \ 3 \ \times \ 12 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 113 \ + \ 3 \ \times \ 12) \ = \ 0.9973 \\ \\ \\ \-\hspace{1.75cm} \Phi(113 \ - \ 36 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 113 \ + \ 36) \ = \ 0.9973 \\ \\ \\ \-\hspace{3.95cm} \Phi(77 \ \leq \ X \ \leq \ 149) \ = \ 0.9973

Therefore, the price of 99.7% of college textbooks falls inclusively between $77 and $149.

Answer:

a) Linear function

b) Linear function

c) Exponential function

d) Exponential function

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of hours in a day increases constantly with 60 minute intervals

b) Constant speed = same distance traveled per given time - so it's linear

c) If a population doubles every y years, it means that the population is being raised exponentially - not at a constant rate, but more each year

Factor completely 36x^2 − 25.
sveticcg [70]
Hello there!

( (2^2*3^2x^2) -  25) \\ \\  Factoring:  \boxed{36x2-25} \\ \\ (PROOF): \\ \\  (A+B) * (A-B) = \\&#10;         A2 - AB + BA - B2 = \\&#10;         A2 - AB + AB - B2 =  \\&#10;         A2 - B2 \\ \\

Your final answer would be (<span> (6x + 5) • (6x - 5)).

Your correct answer would be (option d).

I hope this helps you!</span>
