Let <em>X</em> be the random variable representing the amount (in grams) of nicotine contained in a randomly chosen cigarette.
P(<em>X</em> ≤ 0.37) = P((<em>X</em> - 0.954)/0.292 ≤ (0.37 - 0.954)/0.292) = P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2)
where <em>Z</em> follows the standard normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. (We just transform <em>X</em> to <em>Z</em> using the rule <em>Z</em> = (<em>X</em> - mean(<em>X</em>))/sd(<em>X</em>).)
Given the required precision for this probability, you should consult a calculator or appropriate <em>z</em>-score table. You would find that
P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2) ≈ 0.0228
You can also estimate this probabilty using the empirical or 68-95-99.7 rule, which says that approximately 95% of any normal distribution lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. This is to say,
P(-2 ≤ <em>Z</em> ≤ 2) ≈ 0.95
which means
P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2 or <em>Z</em> ≥ 2) ≈ 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
The normal distribution is symmetric, so this means
P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2) ≈ 1/2 × 0.05 = 0.025
which is indeed pretty close to what we found earlier.
Let the actor's initial weight be 'x'
He is then gaining 20 pounds. The clue is in the word 'gaining' as it means 'increasing' or in Mathematics can be related as 'plus'
The expression is: x+20
He then loses 15 pounds. The clue is in the word 'losses' as it means 15 pounds is to be subtracted from the last value
Last value is x + 20
The weight now is x + 20 - 15 = x + 5
F(x) = x²
g(x) = x - 3
g(-2) = (-2) - 3 = -5
f(-5) = (-5)² = 25

Answer:
+
= 4 + 4 * 3 = 16 = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean Theorem states that the two shorter sides of a right triangle squared and added together will equal the longest side (hypotenuse) of the right triangle squared. The longest side of this right triangle is 4, 4 squared is 16. The two shorter sides of the right triangle are 2 and
, squared individually would be 4 and 12, and added together they also equal 16. These sides are a valid input for the Pythagorean Theorem, so these three sides are the sides of a right triangle. 2 and
being the legs of the right triangle, and 4 being the hypotenuse.
Answer:
The answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
4 is a multiple of 2, which explains the reasoning of answer choice B.
Answer choice A is wrong because 2 is Not a multiple of 4.
Answer choices C and D are incorrect because it takes multiple steps to solve for x and substitute into the other equation. They claim that it takes on step to solve for x, but it would take 2 steps to solve for x.
