Answer:
16 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is attached.
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral (has four sides) with one a parallel base. The base angles and the diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are equal.
The area of a trapezoid = [(sum of the parallel bases) / 2] * height of the trapezoid.
Given that the parallel bases are 3 ft and 5 ft, while the height of the trapezoid is 4 ft. Hence:
The area of a trapezoid = [(3 + 5)/2] * 4
The area of a trapezoid = 16 ft²
Answer:
a) 1186
b) Between 1031 and 1493.
c) 160
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Normally distributed with mean of 1262 and a standard deviation of 118.
This means that
a) Determine the 26th percentile for the number of chocolate chips in a bag.
This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.26, so X when Z = -0.643.
(b) Determine the number of chocolate chips in a bag that make up the middle 95% of bags.
Between the 50 - (95/2) = 2.5th percentile and the 50 + (95/2) = 97.5th percentile.
2.5th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.025, so X when Z = -1.96.
97.5th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.975, so X when Z = 1.96.
Between 1031 and 1493.
(c) What is the interquartile range of the number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies?
Difference between the 75th percentile and the 25th percentile.
25th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.
75th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
IQR:
1342 - 1182 = 160
