To solve this problem, we make use of the z statistic.
What we have to do here is to find for the z score using the given data and
from the standard probability tables for z, we locate the proportion of the
fish longer than 12 inches.
The formula for calculating the z score is:
z = (x – μ) / σ
where,
x = the sample value = 12 inches
μ = the sample mean = 11 inches
σ = 2 inches
so,
z = (12 – 11) / 2
z = 1 / 2
z = 0.5
Since we are looking for the values greater than 12, so
this is a right tailed test. Using the tables, the value of p at this value of
z is:
p (z = 0.5) = 0.3085
Therefore there is a 30.85% probability that the fish is
longer than 12 inches.
Answer:
k is the option that makes sense
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Shown is one-fourth of a circle. Also, according to the picture, the radius is 28 meters.
The area for a whole circle is 
.
Using that information, we can find the area as if the circle was whole instead of just the fourth.
Now that we know the area of the whole circle, we just have to divide it by four to find the area of the fourth of the circle.
That means that the area of the shape shown is .
I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
a. Has a slope of 2 and passes through (10,17)
Using the slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 2x+b
Substitute the point into the equation
17 = 2(10)+b
17 = 20+b
Subtract 20 from each side
17-20 =b
-3 =b
y = 2x-3
b. passes through (1,-4) and (2,-5)
First find the slope
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-5- -4)/(2-1)
= (-5+4)/(2-1)
= -1/1
= -1
Using the slope intercept form
y = -x+b
Substitute a point into the equation
-4 = -1(1) +b
-4 = -1+b
Add 1 to each side
-3 = b
y = -x+3
