Answer:

0.0062

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (μ) = 72 inches, Standard deviation (σ) = 1.2 inches.

The z score is a measure in statistics is used to determine by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. If the raw score is above the mean, the z score is positive and if the raw score is below the mean, the z score is negative.

The z score is given as:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For Clydesdale is greater than 75 inches tall, x = 75 inches, the z score is:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{75-72}{1.2} =2.5

The probability that a Clydesdale is greater than 75 inches tall = P(X > 75) = P(Z > 2.5) = 1 - P(Z < 2.5) = 1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062 = 0.62%

The probability that a Clydesdale is greater than 75 inches tall is 0.62%

Answer:

(a) A translation is a rigid transformation. How does this statement support line s being parallel to line r?

Because ALL of the points of line r move the same distance in the same direction, then the inclination of the line s doesn't change with respect line r.

(b) Write and expression for the slope of line r:

(k-n)/(j-m)

(c) Write and expression for the slope of line s:

(k-n)/(j-m)

(d) Line q is a vertical is a vertical translation of line s 3 units down. P'' is the image of P'. What are the coordinates of P''?

The coordinates of P'' are:

P''=(m,n+ϴ-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A translation is a rigid transformation. How does this statement support line s being parallel to line r?

Because ALL of the points of line r move the same distance in the same direction, then the inclination of the line s doesn't change with respect line r.


(b) Write and expression for the slope of line r.

Line r goes through the points:

P=(m,n)=(xp,yp)→xp=m, yp=n

Q=(j,k)=(xq,yq)→xq=j, yq=k

Slope of line r is:

mr=(yq-yp)/(xq-xp)

Replacing the coordinates, the expression for the slope of line r is:

mr=(k-n)/(j-m)


(c) Write and expression for the slope of line s.

Line s goes through the points:

P'=(m,n+ϴ)=(xp',yp')→xp'=m, yp'=n+ϴ

Q'=(j,k+ϴ)=(xq',yq')→xq'=j, yq'=k+ϴ

Slope of line s is:

ms=(yq'-yp')/(xq'-xp')

Replacing the coordinates, the expression for the slope of line s is:

ms=[(k+ϴ)-(n+ϴ)]/(j-m)

Eliminating the parentheses in the numerator:

ms=[k+ϴ-n-ϴ]/(j-m)

Simplifyng:

ms=(k-n)/(j-m)


(d) Line q is a vertical is a vertical translation of line s 3 units down. P'' is the image of P'. What are the coordinates of P''?

3 units down, then change only the ordinate y:

P''=(xp',yp'-3)

Replacing xp' and yp':

P''=(m,n+ϴ-3)

A manager must select three coders from her group to write three different software projects. There are 7 junior and 3 senior co
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The total number of ways are 168.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There are 7 junior and 3 senior coders in her group.

The first project can be written by any of the coders. The second project must be written by a senior person and the third project must be written by a junior person.

For second project we have 3 choices and for third project we have 7 choices.

Now there are 2 possible case:

Case I: If first and second coder is senior, then the total number of ways are:

3\times 2\times 7=42

Case II: If first and third coder is junior, then the total number of ways are:

7\times 3\times 6=126

Hence, the total number of ways are: 42+126=168
