Jasmine's dog weighs 15kg the dogs collar weighs 200 g. how many grams does the dog weigh when it wearing the collar?

Cerrena [4.2K]

There are 1000 grams in a kg - so the dog weighs 15,000 grams. Add that to the collar weight (200g) and you get 15,200 grams.

A 10 ft pole has a support rope that extends from the top of the pole to the ground. The rope and the ground form a 30 degree an

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The length of rope is 20.0 ft . Hence, <u>option (1) </u> is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure below AB represents pole having height 10 ft and AC represents the rope that is from the top of pole to the ground. BC represent the ground distance from base of tower to the rope.

The rope and the ground form a 30 degree angle that is the angle between BC and AC is 30°.

In right angled triangle ABC with right angle at B.

Since we have to find the length of rope that is the value of side AC.

Using trigonometric ratios

$\sin C=\frac{\text{perpendicular}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

$\sin C=\frac{AB}{AC}$

Putting values,

$\sin 30^\circ} =\frac{10}{AC}$

We know, $\sin 30^\circ}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{1}{2} =\frac{10}{AC}$

On solving we get,

AC= 20.0 ft

Thus, the length of rope is 20.0 ft

Hence, <u>option (1)</u> is correct.

When Noah goes bowling, his scores are normally distributed with a mean of 150 and a standard deviation of 12. What is the proba

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

The probability of his score being between 135 and 167 is 0.8151 or (0.8151*100=81.51%)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean = μ = 150

SD = σ = 12

Let x1 be the first data point and x2 the second data point

We have to find the z-scores for both data points

x1 = 135

x2 = 167

So,

$z_1 = \frac{x_1-mean}{SD}\\= \frac{135-150}{12}\\=\frac{-15}{12}\\=-1.25$

And

$z_2 = \frac{x_2-mean}{SD}\\z_2 =\frac{167-150}{12}\\=\frac{17}{12}\\= {1.416}$

We have to find area to the left of both points then their difference to find the probability.

So,

Area to the left of z1 = 0.1056

Area to the left of z2 = 0.9207

Probability to score between 135 and 167 = z2-z1 = 0.9027-0.1056 = 0.8151

Hence,

The probability of his score being between 135 and 167 is 0.8151 or (0.8151*100=81.51%)
