Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$Z=\frac{x-mu}{\sigma }$

X - Heights of women aged 20 to 29: X is N(64, 2.7)

Y - Heights of men aged 20 to 29: X is N(69.3, 2.8)

a) X=6'=72"

Z= $\frac{72-64}{2.7} =2.963$

b) Y = 72"

z= $\frac{72-69.3}{2.8} =0.965$

c) 72' women can be taken as very tall but men moderately taller than average

d) Y<5'5" =65"

Z< $\frac{65-69.3}{2.8} =-1.536$

e) X>73"

Z> $\frac{73-64}{2.7} =3.33$

Almost 0% can be taken

f) IQR =Q3-Q1

Z scores =

Freezer A measures 1 ft times 1 ft times 5 ft and sells for $300. Freezer B measures 1.5 ft times 1.5 ft times 4 ft and sells f

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Freezer A is better option as price per cubic foot is less for Freezer A

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Measure of Freezer A = 1 ft × 1 ft × 5 ft

Measure of Freezer B = 1.5 ft × 1.5 ft × 4 ft

Price of Freezer A = $300

Price of Freezer B = $600

Now,

Volume of Freezer A = 1 ft × 1 ft × 5 ft

= 5 ft³

Volume of Freezer B = 1.5 ft × 1.5 ft × 4 ft

= 9 ft³

Now,

Price per cubic foot for Freezer A = $300 ÷ 5 ft³

= $60/ft³

Price per cubic foot for Freezer B = $600 ÷ 9 ft³

= $66.67/ft³

Hence,

Freezer A is better option as price per cubic foot is less for Freezer A

What is the common rule for simplifying a negative exponent with a coefficient?<br> Ex: 3^-1

rjkz [21]

Anything to a negative power becomes the inverse with the coefficient to a positive power.
For example, 3^-1 becomes 1/3^1 or just 1/3.
3^-2 would be 1/3^2 or 1/9.

Let and be differentiable vector fields and let a and b be arbitrary real constants. Verify the following identities.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The given identities are verified by using operations of the del operator such as divergence and curl of the given vectors.

<h3>What are the divergence and curl of a vector field?</h3>

The del operator is used for finding the divergence and the curl of a vector field.

The del operator is given by

$\nabla=\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}$

Consider a vector field $F=x\^i+y\^j+z\^k$

Then the divergence of the vector F is,

div F = $\nabla.F$ = $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(x\^i+y\^j+z\^k)$

and the curl of the vector F is,

curl F = $\nabla\times F$ = $\^i(\frac{\partial Fz}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial Fy}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial Fx}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial Fz}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial Fy}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial Fx}{\partial y})$

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The given vector fields are:

$F1 = M\^i + N\^j + P\^k$ and $F2 = Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k$

1) Verifying the identity: $\nabla.(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

Consider L.H.S

⇒ $\nabla.(aF1+bF2)$

⇒ $\nabla.(a(M\^i + N\^j + P\^k) + b(Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k))$

⇒ $\nabla.((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

Applying the dot product between these two vectors,

⇒ $\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial x}+ \frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial z}$ ...(1)

Consider R.H.S

⇒ $a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

So,

$\nabla.F1=(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(M\^i + N\^j + P\^k)$

⇒ $\nabla.F1=\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial N}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial P}{\partial z}$

$\nabla.F2=(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z}).(Q\^i + R\^j + S\^k)$

⇒ $\nabla.F1=\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial R}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial S}{\partial z}$

Then,

$a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2=a(\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial N}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial P}{\partial z})+b(\frac{\partial Q}{\partial x}+\frac{\partial R}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial S}{\partial z})$

⇒ $\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial x}+ \frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial y}+\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial z}$ ...(2)

From (1) and (2),

$\nabla.(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla.F1+b\nabla.F2$

2) Verifying the identity: $\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$

Consider L.H.S

⇒ $\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z})\times(a(M\^i+N\^j+P\^k)+b(Q\^i+R\^j+S\^k))$

⇒ $(\^i\frac{\partial}{\partial x}+\^j \frac{\partial}{\partial y}+\^k\frac{\partial}{\partial z})\times ((aM+bQ)\^i+(aN+bR)\^j+(aP+bS)\^k)$

Applying the cross product,

$\^i(\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial y}- \^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial z})+\^j(\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial z}-\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial x})+\^k(\^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial x}-\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial y})$ ...(3)

Consider R.H.S,

⇒ $a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$

So,

$a\nabla\times F1=a(\nabla\times (M\^i+N\^j+P\^k))$

⇒ $\^i(\frac{\partial aP\^k}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial aN\^j}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial aM\^i}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial aP\^k}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial aN\^j}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial aM\^i}{\partial y})$

$a\nabla\times F2=b(\nabla\times (Q\^i+R\^j+S\^k))$

⇒ $\^i(\frac{\partial bS\^k}{\partial y}- \frac{\partial bR\^j}{\partial z})+\^j(\frac{\partial bQ\^i}{\partial z}-\frac{\partial bS\^k}{\partial x})+\^k(\frac{\partial bR\^j}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial bQ\^i}{\partial y})$

Then,

$a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$ =

$\^i(\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial y}- \^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial z})+\^j(\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial z}-\^k\frac{\partial (aP+bS)}{\partial x})+\^k(\^j\frac{\partial (aN+bR)}{\partial x}-\^i\frac{\partial (aM+bQ)}{\partial y})$

...(4)

Thus, from (3) and (4),

$\nabla\times(aF1+bF2)=a\nabla\times F1+b\nabla\times F2$
