Answer:

The first quartile of the strengths of this alloy is 9.055 GPa.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using 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.

The strength of an aluminum alloy is normally distributed with mean 10 gigapascals (GPa) and standard deviation 1.4 GPa.

This means that \mu = 10, \sigma = 1.4

What is the first [lower] quartile of the strengths of this alloy?

This is the 100/4 = 25th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

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

-0.675 = \frac{X - 10}{1.4}

X - 10 = -0.675*1.4

X = 9.055

The first quartile of the strengths of this alloy is 9.055 GPa.

What is the surface area of a tennis ball with a diameter of 6.7?? With full work please.
Sedbober [7]
So the formula you have to do is A= (pie)(radius)(squared)


divide 6.7 by 2 to find the radius which is 3.35


now do 3.35 * 3.35 ( we are squaring it) which = 11.225

now 11.225 times PIE is 35.264377537


so the answer is 35.264377537

hope that helped!

NEED HELP FAST 100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

1)The mass of water increases.

2) Freezing point of water decreases.

3) buoyancy of objects in the water increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salinity in the oceanic water is attributed by the water coming from other sources like rivers carrying rocks and soil containing salt. Salinity decreases the temperature of water, making it cold and more denser. The cold water settles at the bottom of the ocean. It flows across the oceanic basins as slow currents. The objects being less in density flows over the surface of water. Hence,buoyancy of objects in water increases.

What’s the slope of the line?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the two points we have marked, they are clearly 10 units apart from -5 to 5, and the change in the y-axis is 4. So the change between the two points is 4/10 (rise over run).

4/10 simplifies to 2/5.
