Answer:

the water will be 0.538 feet high

Step-by-step explanation:

Once the rectangles have been sketched out, with their correct dimensions, we will notice that the quantity of water that will fill the first rectangular prism simply equals to its volume.

The volume of the rectangular prism can be obtained by using the formula:

length X breadth X height.

First Prism:

Volume of the first prism =  8 X 5 X 3.5 = 140 square feet.

Second Prism

The same volume of water was poured into the second prism which had a different dimension from the first. To calculate the new height, we will use the fact that the volume = base area X height.

hence height = volume / base area

height of water = 140 / (26 X 10 ) = 0.538 feet

Therefore, the water will be 0.538 feet high

A professor at a local university noted that the exam grades of her students were normally distributed with a mean of 73 and a s
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The minimum score of those who received C's is 67.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 73, \sigma = 11

If 69.5 percent of the students received grades of C or better, what is the minimum score of those who received C's?

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.695 = 0.305. So it is X when Z = -0.51.

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

-0.51 = \frac{X - 73}{11}

X - 73 = -0.51*11

X = 67.39

The minimum score of those who received C's is 67.39.
