Given that the mean of 15 bowlers that have been selected at random is distributed normally with mean 157 and std dev of 12
The probability that a random sample of 15 bowlers would have an average score greater than 165 will be:
mean=157
std dev,σ =12
std error=σ/√n=12/√15=3.0984
standardizing xbar to z=(xbar-μ)/(σ/√n)
P(xbar>165)=P(165-157)/3.0984
=P(z>2.582)
using normal probability tables we get:
P(z>2.582)=0.0049

Next we calculate the probability that a random sample of 150 bowlers will have an average score greater than 165.
μ=157
σ=12
std error=12/√150=0.9797=0/98
standardizing the xbar we get:
z=(165-157)/0.98
=P(z>8.165)
from normal table this will give us:
P(z>8.165)=0.00

What is 12.345 rounded to the nearest tenth
noname [10]
Rounding to the nearest tenth means rounding to the decimal place directly to the right of the decimal. 

The rules of rounding are fairly simple. If the number to the right of the number you are rounding is greater than or equal to 5, you round up. If the number to the right is less than 5, you round down.

Let's take a look at the number 12.345.
First, round to the hundredths place. The number right before the 4 is 5, so we round up. This gives us the number 12.35.
Next, we have to round to the tenths place. The number to the right of the 3 is 5, so we round up as well. This gives us the number 12.4.

Answer: 12.4

Derek is playing a prank on Grace and hid her pencil inside a tissue box that has a width of 4 inches, a length of 8 inches, and
ohaa [14]

Answer:

9.8 Inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from the upper left corner to the bottom right corner of the box is the longest diagonal of the box.

For a rectangular prism:

Length of the Longest diagonal =\sqrt{ l^2+h^2+w^2}

Therefore:

Length of the pencil=\sqrt{ 8^2+4^2+4^2}

=\sqrt{96}\\=9.8$ inch(correct to  the nearest tenth of an inch)

Find the inverse of the function f(x) = (x - 4) 2 - 5 if x ≥ 4.
Serggg [28]
Same here, we do a quick switcharoo on the variables first,

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=(x-4)^2-5\qquad inverse\implies \boxed{x}=\left( \boxed{y}-4 \right)^2-5
\\\\\\
x+5=(y-4)^2\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}=y-4\implies \pm\sqrt{x+5}+4=y

An artist builds a sculpture out of metal and wood that weighs 14.9 kilograms. 3/4 of this weight is metal and the rest is wood.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Given is a sculpture that is built up of metal and wood, and the weight of this sculpture is 14.9 kilograms.

It says that three-fourth of the total weight is metal and says to find the weight of wooden part.

We can find the weight of metal part and then subtract it from the total weight to calculate the answer.

Total weight = 14.9 kilograms.

Metal part = three-fourth of total weight =

Wooden part = 14.9 - 11.175 = 3.725 kilograms.

Hence, the wooden part is 3.725 kilograms.

Who knows how to do this Bc I don’t understand
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

WV should be equal to XY

Step-by-step explanation:

since it is the HL postulate meaning hypotenuse and leg, we need to show that the hypotenuses of both triangles are equal since we are already given that one of their legs are congruent. we are also given that they are right triangles.
