Answer:=-2

Step-by-step explanation:Use the quadratic formula

−

√

s=\frac{-{\color{#e8710a}{b}} \pm \sqrt{{\color{#e8710a}{b}}^{2}-4{\color{#c92786}{a}}{\color{#129eaf}{c}}}}{2{\color{#c92786}{a}}}

s=2a−b±b2−4ac

Once in standard form, identify a, b, and c from the original equation and plug them into the quadratic formula.

s^{2}+4s+4=0

s2+4s+4=0

a={\color{#c92786}{1}}

a=1

b={\color{#e8710a}{4}}

b=4

c={\color{#129eaf}{4}}

c=4

normally distributed with mean 24.6 seconds and standard deviation 0.64 seconds;the lower finishing time, the better. If the qua

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

$z=1.04$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=24.6 +1.04*0.64=25.27$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 85% of data from the top 15% is 25.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the finishing time of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(24.6,0.64)$

Where $\mu=24.6$ and $\sigma=0.64$

Solution to the problem

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.15$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.85 of the area on the left and 0.15 of the area on the right it's z=1.04. On this case P(Z<1.04)=0.85 and P(z>1.04)=0.15

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=1.04$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=24.6 +1.04*0.64=25.27$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 85% of data from the top 15% is 25.27.

See the picture below

mart [117]

Answer:

a) 301.59 cubic centimeters

b) 235.87 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of ice cream cone is volume of hemisphere PLUS volume of cone.

Volume of Hemisphere = $\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{2}$

radius is given as 4, so,

Volume of Hemisphere = $\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{2}\\=\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi (4)^3}{2}\\=134.04$

Now, Volume of Cone = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

Where radius is 4 and height is 10, so,

Volume of Cone = $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\\=\frac{1}{3}\pi (4)^2 (10)\\=167.55$

Volume of Ice Cream Cone = 134.04 + 167.55 = 301.59 cubic centimeters

Surface area of ice cream cone is surface area of hemisphere PLUS surface area of cone.

Surface Area of Hemisphere = $2\pi r^2\\=2\pi (4)^2\\=100.53$

Surface Area of Cone = $\pi r^2+\pi rl$

We dont need to use the first part, $\pi r^2$ since it is "inside". We need to find l, slant height, by using pythagorean theorem on a triangle we can make (bottom right).

4^2 + 10^ 2 = l^2

16 + 100 = l^2

116 = l^2

l = 10.77

Now to find the surface area of cone = $\pi rl\\=\pi (4)(10.77)\\=135.34$

Surface area of ice cream cone = 100.53 + 135.34 = 235.87 square centimeters
