Answer:

82.88%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (μ) = 16.7 pounds

Standard deviation (σ) = 3.8 pounds

Number of pounds eaten = 11.5 = x

P(11.5 ≥ x ≤11.5)

P(x ≤ 11.5) :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (11.5 - 16.7) / 3.8

Zscore = - 5. 2 / 3.8

Zscore = −1.368421

P(Z ≤ - 1.3684) = 0.085593 (Z probability calculator)

P(x ≥ 11.5) ;

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (11.5 - 16.7) / 3.8

Zscore = - 5. 2 / 3.8

Zscore = −1.368421

P(Z ≥ - 1.3684) = 0.91441 (Z probability calculator)

P(Z ≥ - 1.3684) - P(Z ≤ - 1.3684)

0.91441 - 0.085593 = 0.828817

0.828817 * 100% = 82.88%

Could I get some help in here​

Answer:

  98 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways you can think about this one. Perhaps easiest is to treat it as a square with a triangle cut out of it. The cutout triangle has a base (across the top) of 14 ft and a height of 14 ft, so its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(14 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²

Of course the area of the square from which it is cut is ...

  A = (14 ft)² = 196 ft²

So, the net area of the two triangles shown is ...

  A = (196 ft²) - (98 ft²) = 98 ft²

_____

Another way to work this problem is to attack it directly. Let the base of the left triangle be x. Then the base of the right triangle is 14-x, and their total area is ...

  A = A1 + A2 = (1/2)(x ft)(14 ft) + (1/2)((14-x) ft)(14 ft)

We can factor out 7 ft to get ...

  A = (7 ft)(x ft + (14 -x) ft)

  A = (7 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²

A woman is walking at the rate of 90 yards per minute. How fast is she going in feet per second?
motikmotik

Answer:

She is going at the rate of 4.5 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The rate of walking is 90 yards per minute.

Now, to find the rate in feet per second.

1 yard = 3 foot.

1 minute = 60 seconds.

So, first we find the rate of walking per second in yard = 90\div 60

Therefore by dividing we get = 1.5 yard

Now, we find the rate of walking per second in feet = 1.5\times 3

So, by multiplying we get = 4.5 feet

Therefore, she is going at the rate of 4.5 feet per second.
