A botanist is collecting data from a particular species of plant. The scientist found that the data is normally distributed with

a mean value of =147 μ = 147 cm and standard deviation of =30 σ = 30 cm. If the sample size is =4000 N = 4000 how many specimens have a height greater than 73 73 cm

Answer:

3972.72 specimens

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the z score formula:

z = (x-μ)/σ where

x is the raw score = 73 cm

μ is the population mean = 147 cm

σ is the population standard deviation = 30 cm

N is the number of samples = 4000

For x > 73

z = 73 - 147/30

z = -2.46667

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<73) = 0.0068189

P(x>73) = 1 - P(x<73) = 0.99318

The probability of having a height greater than 73cm is: 0.99318

The number of specimens that have a height greater than 73cm is calculated as: 0.99318 × 4000

= 3972.72 specimens

An open top box is to be made by a 24 in by 24 in. by 36 in. piece of cardboard by removing a square from each corner of the box
galben [10]

Answer:

X= -12 +6√10

X= 6.973

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box= (36-2x)(24-2x)x

Volume of the box

=( 864 -96x -4x²)x

But 864 -96x -4x²

=216 - 24x-x²

Solving for x quadratically

X= (24+12√10)/-2

X= -12 -6√10

X= -30.97

Or

X= (24-12√10)/-2

X= -12 +6√10

X= 6.973

X will definitely be a positive number

So X= -12 +6√10

X= 6.973

Which values for A and B will create infinitely many solutions for this system of equations? Ax-y=8 2x+y=B plss hurry im being t
Lynna [10]

Answer:

A=-2

B=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the system of linear equations to have infinitely many solution, they must be the same equation.

Ax-y=8

2x+y=B

We need to choose A and B so they are the same equation.

I notice they are both in the same form but in the second column you have opposites;

the -y and y.

So im going to multiply either equation by -1 so that part is exactly the same.

Don't choose both; choose only one.

Let's multiply the first equation by -1.

Doing this gives us the following:

-Ax+y=-8

2x+y=B

So now we can choose A and B so these equations appear exactly the same.

We need -A=2 and B=-8.

-A=2 implies A=(opposite of 2) which is -2.

Conclusion:

A=-2

B=-8

What is the value of X in the triangle attached?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

X = 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Accordng to Exterior Angle Sum Property , measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the 2 interior opposite angles.

So,

(2x) + (103 - x) = 6x - 7

=  > x + 103 = 6x - 7

=  > 6x - x = 103 + 7

=  > 5x = 110

=  > x =  \frac{110}{5}  = 22
