Answer:

$720

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Mean, m = 600

Standard deviation, s = 120

Z = (x - m) / s

P(Z > x) = 84%

P(Z > x) = 0.84

Zscore corresponding to P(Z > x) = 0.84 will be -0.994

Hence,

-0.994 = (x - 600) / 120

120 * -0.994 = x - 600

119.28 = x - 600

119.28 + 600 = x

719.28 = x

Hence,

X = $720

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Area of the shaded region = 23.33 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a sector = \frac{\theta}{360}(\pi r^{2})

Where θ = Central angle subtended by an arc

r = radius of the circle

Area of the sector BCD = \frac{60}{360}(\pi) (10^{2})

                                       = 52.36 in²

Area of equilateral triangle BCD = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(\text{Side})^2

                                                      = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(10)^2

                                                      = 25\sqrt{3} in²

                                                      = 43.30 in²

Area of the shaded portion in ΔBCD = 52.36 - 43.3

                                                             = 9.06 in²

Area of sector CAD = \frac{90}{360}(\pi)(\sqrt{50})^2

                                 = 39.27 in²

Area of right triangle CAD = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})

                                            = \frac{1}{2}(\text{AC})(\text{AD})

                                            = \frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{50})(\sqrt{50})

                                            = 25 in²

Area of the shaded part in the ΔACD = 39.27 - 25

                                                                         = 14.27 in²

Area of the shaded part of the figure = 9.06 + 14.27

                                                                = 23.33 in²

Can someone plz help me solved this problem! Need help ASAP! Help me !
lana66690 [7]

Answer:  5, 8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The difference between 3 times a number and -8 is BETWEEN 23 and 32

Note: "difference" means subtraction --> 3x - (-8)  --> 3x + 8

               23 < 3x + 8 < 32

               15 < 3x        < 24          <em> subtracted 8 from all 3 sides</em>

-->             5 <   x        <   8          <em>divided 3 from all 3 sides</em>

Which substance is a mixture?<br> salt<br> gasoline<br> aluminum<br> carbon dioxide
pogonyaev
First, we must understand why the three other choices are not mixtures. Salt is a compound made from elements Sodium and Chlorine. Aluminum is an element. Carbon dioxide is also a compound composed of Carbon and Oxygen. Now, gasoline. is substance made from refined crude oils (or hydrocarbons). As a matter of fact, gasoline is an example of a homogenous mixture. Thus, amongst the choices, the mixture would be gasoline<span>. </span>

The minute hand of a clock is 3 inches long. How far does the tip of the minute hand move in 40 minutes​?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

  4π in ≈ 12.57 in

Step-by-step explanation:

One full revolution (2π radians) is made in 60 minutes. In 40 minutes, the hand moves through an angle θ of (40/60)(2π) = 4π/3 radians. The length of the arc is ...

  s = rθ = (3 in)(4π/3) = 4π in ≈ 12.57 in
