Answer:

$P(1739$

(Correct to 4 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a continuous normal variable X found in a particular interval [a, b] is the area under the curve bounded by x=a and x=b and is given by:

$P(a$

where

$f(X)=\frac{1}{\sigma \sqrt{2 \pi} }e^{-\frac{1}{2} (\frac{x-u}{ \sigma} )^2}$

$f(X)=\frac{1}{200 \sqrt{2 \pi} }e^{-\frac{1}{2} (\frac{x-1400}{ 200} )^2}\\=\frac{1}{200 \sqrt{2 \pi} }e^{- \frac{(x-1400)^2}{ 80000}\\$

$P(1739$

Using a calculator,

$P(1739$

At a restaurant the cost for a breakfast taco and a small glass of milk is $2.10. The cost for 2 tacos and 3 small glasses of mi

tangare [24]

Answer:

The price for a small glass of milk is $0.95, and the price for a breakfast taco is $1.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of a taco be x and the price for a small glass of milk be y.

$x + y = 2.1$

$2x + 3y = 5.15$

Multiply the first equation by 2:

$2x + 2y = 4.2$

Subtract the new third equation from the second equation:

$(2x + 3y) - (2x + 2y) = 5.15 - 4.2$

$y = 0.95$

Hence, the price for a small glass of milk is $0.95.

Substitute y into the first equation.

$x + 0.95 = 2.1$

$x = 1.15$

Therefore, the price for a breakfast taco is $1.15.

Hope this helped!

Anyone please???????

leva [86]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf B)\: x=\sqrt{17}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the Pythagorean Theorem</u>

The equation for the Pythagorean Theorem is $\tt a^2+b^2=c^2$

* a and b are the lengths of the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.*

(To know which side is the hypotenuse look at longest side which is across the right angle).

a= x, b=8, c=9

$\sf a^2+b^2=c^2$

Let's Plug in the side lengths:

$\sf x^2+8^2=9^2$

Evaluate 8^2 and 9^2:

$\sf x^2+64=81$

Subtract 64 from both sides:

$\sf x^2+64-64=81-64$

$\sf x^2=17$

Take the square root of both sides:

$\sf x=\sqrt{17}$
