We would be using conversion rates and dimensional analysis to solve this question.

The average weight of the chimpanzee in pounds is 114.73 lb

Step 1: 1 kg = 1000 g

Convert 52 kg to grams

1 kg = 1000g

52 kg = ?

Cross Multiply

52 kg x 1000g / 1 kg

= 52,000g

Step 2: Convert from grams to ounce

1 gram = 0.0353 ounce

52,000 g = ?

Cross Multiply

52,000g x 0.0353

= 1,835.60 ounces

Step 3: Convert from 0unces to pounds

16 oz = 1 lb

1835.6 = ?

Cross Multiply

1835.6 oz x 1 lb / 16

= 114.73 lb

Step 4: Using Dimensional analysis:

52 kg x  1000g/1 kg  x  0.0353 oz/ 1 gram  x  1 lb/16 0z  

= 114.73 lb

Therefore, the average weight of the chimpanzee in pounds is 114.73 lb.

A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 45.0 and 55.
yuradex [85]
Given:

Uniform distribution of length of classes between 45.0 to 55.0 minutes. 

To determine the probability of selecting a class that runs between 51.5 to 51.75 minutes, find the median of the given upper and lower limit first:

45+55/2 = 50

So the highest number of instances is 50-minute class. If the probability of 50 is 0.5, then the probability of length of class between 51.5 to 51.75 minutes is near 0.5, approximately 0.45. <span />

Use double angle formulas to find the exact value of sin2x,cos2x, and tan2x
denis-greek [22]
Sin2x = 2sinxcosx;
cos2x = (cosx)^2 - (sinx)^2;
tan2x = (sin2x)/(cos2x);

 cosx = 5/13 from formula (sinx)^2 + (cosx)^2 = 1;

=> sin2x = 120/169;
