A scientist is studying the motion of waves by measuring the distance between the crests and troughs of waves in a particular ar
ea. He set up a
series of buoys at equal intervals, and attached a depth detector to each buoy.
After gathering data, the scientist modeled the positions of the buoys at a specific instance with the given function, where x is the horizontal
distance, in feet, from the first buoy and f(x) is the depth of the water, in feet, at that location.
F(x) = 2cos(x/8x) +13

Answer:
b. 2.28%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean temperatue (μ) = 1000°F
Standard Deviation (σ) = 50 °F
For any temperature value, X, the z-score is given by:
For X= 900°F
A z-score of -2.0 corresponds to the 2.28-th percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the probability that X<900 is:
