In a survey men in a certain country (ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.8 inches with a standard deviation of 2.8 inches, what height represents the 99th percentile?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the height that represents the 99th percentile is 69.324  inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

the mean height =  62.8 inches

standard deviation = 2.8  inches

For 99th percentile;

Let X be the random variable;

SO, P(Z≤ z)  = 0.99

From the standard normal z tables

P(Z )= 2.33

The standard z score formula is :

[tex]z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]2.33 = \dfrac{X- 62.8}{2.8}[/tex]

2.33 × 2.8 = X - 62.8

6.524 = X - 62.8

6.524 +62.8 =  X

69.324  = X

X = 69.324

Therefore; the height that represents the 99th percentile is 69.324  inches

triangular park ABC has sides 3 m, 5 m, and 6 m. a gardener ravi wants to put a fence all around it and also plant grass inside. how much area does he need to plant?

Answers

Step 1) Check if the given triangle lengths form a right triangle

3^2 + 5^2 = 6^2

9 + 25 = 36

36 = 36

Step 2) Solve for the area of the triangle

Formula: A = 1/2 x base x height

A = 1/2 x 3 x 5

A = 1/2 x 15

A = 7.5 m^2

Step 3) Solve for the perimeter of the triangle

Formula: P = sum of all sides

P = 3 + 5 + 6

P = 14 m

Ravi needs to plant 7.5m^2 of grass and put up a fence that is 14m in total length.

Rewrite the fraction without an exponent (7/8)^-2

Answers

I also got the answer 64/49.

:D

The fraction  [tex](\frac{7}{8})^{-2}[/tex] without an exponent can be written as  [tex]\frac{64}{49}[/tex].

To rewrite the fraction [tex](\frac{7}{8})^{-2}[/tex] without an exponent, we can apply the rule of reciprocals.

Reciprocal of a fraction a/b is given by b/a.

So, taking the reciprocal of  [tex](\frac{7}{8})^{-2}[/tex] , we get:

[tex](\frac{7}{8})^{-2}[/tex]  =[tex](\frac{8}{7})^{2}[/tex]

Now let us simplify the numerator and denominator:

[tex]=\frac{8\times 8}{7 \times 7}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{64}{49}[/tex]

Therefore,  [tex](\frac{7}{8})^{-2}[/tex] can be rewritten as [tex]\frac{64}{49}[/tex].

Which is the simplified form of x Superscript negative 12?

Answers

Answer:

1/x^12

Step-by-step explanation:

X^-12....simply move x^-12 to the other side of the division and change the sign of the exponent.

The simplified form of the expression x Superscript negative 12 is 1/ x¹².

What is the rule of exponent?

The rule of the exponent is defined as the simplified form of the exponents

(aᵇ)ⁿ = aᵇⁿa⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿaᵇ * aⁿ = aᵇ⁺ⁿaᵇ / aⁿ = aᵇ⁻ⁿ

where a is the base and b and n are the exponent.

Here given in the question is the expression that x superscript negative 12.

As we now superscript is to write the number in exponent position.

here -12 is written in the superscript of x.

then the mathematical expression will be converted as

x superscript negative 12 = x⁻¹²

As we know from the rule of exponent that a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ where a is the base and n is the exponent.

x⁻¹² can be rewritten as x⁻¹² = 1/ x¹²

Therefore the simplified form of the expression x Superscript negative 12 is 1/ x¹².

To solve this we have to take into account this axioms:

- The total probability is always equal to 1.

- The probability of a randomly selected point being inside the circle is equal to one minus the probability of being outside the circle.

Then, if the probabilities are proportional to the area, we have 1/3 probability of selecting a point inside a circle and (1-1/3)=2/3 probability of selecting a point that is outside the circle.

Then, the probabilty that a random selected point inside the square (the total probability space) and outside the circle is 2/3.

Six friends went to a restaurant and agreed to share the bill equally. However, two people forgot their wallets so the other four friends' portions of the bill went up by $7 each. How many dollars was the total bill?

Answers

Answer:

The total bill was $84

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so we know a few things, we know that the total cost of the bill is divisible by both 6 and 4, and we know that if we call the total cost of the bill x and the amount each person would pay if it was divided for 6 people y we can write these equations:

[tex]\frac{x}{6}=y[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{4}=y+7[/tex]

Now we can substitute the first equation into the second and solve for x

[tex]\frac{x}{4}=\frac{x}{6}+7\\\frac{x}{4}-\frac{x}{6}=7\\\frac{x}{12}=7\\x=7*12=84[/tex]

Therefore, the total bill was $84

The perimeter of a rectangle is 60 cm. The ratio of length to width is 3:2. Find the length and width of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: L = 18 and W = 12

Explanation:

Find the semi rectangle:

60/2 = 30

Now we can find the length and width using the semi rectangle:

L = 30 x 3/5 = 18

W = 30 x 2/5 = 12

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter = 2*length + 2 * width.

As the ratio is 3:2 the fraction 3 / (3 +2)  is used to find the length:

The measure of the 2 lengths = 3/ (3+2)  * 60

= 3/5 * 60

= 36 cm

So the measure of the length = 18 cm

So the measure of  the width = (60 - 36) / 2

= 24/2

= 12 cm.

PLEASE urgent

Answers

Answer:

90 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sides of similar figures in the ratio a : b, then

ratio of areas = a² : b²

Here ratio of sides = 1 : 3 , thus

ratio of areas = 1² : 3² = 1 : 9

That is the surface area of the new solid is 9 times the first

SA = 9 × 10 = 90 ft²

The total surface area of the new solid in square feet is 90 square feet

Let the solid be a cube.

The surface area of a cube = 6L²

L is the length o the cube;

If the surface area of a solid is 10 square feet, then;

10 = 6L²

L² = 10/6

L = √10/6

If the dimensions of a similar solid are  three times as great as the first, then;

New length Ln = 3√10/6

Total surface area of the new solid = 6Ln²

Total surface area of the new solid = 6(3√10/6)²

Total surface area of the new solid = 6(9*10/6)

Total surface area of the new solid = 6(90/6)

Total surface area of the new solid = 90 square feet

This shows that the total surface area of the new solid in square feet is 90 square feet

Since a square's length is equal to its width, we simply plug it into the formula:

A = (3x + 8)(3x + 8)

Then we simply use FOIL to expand the distribution)

First - 3x(3x) = 9x²

Outside - 8(3x) = 24x

Inside - 8(3x) = 24x

Nesta questão, estamos preocupados em estabelecer uma lei que forneça a quantidade de água presente no reservatório a qualquer momento, usando a quantidade inicial de água no reservatório e a taxa de perda de água do reservatório.

Agora, sabemos que a taxa de perda de água é de 5 litros por minuto.

Assim, podemos estabelecer a lei da seguinte forma; vamos chamar a quantidade de água a qualquer momento no reservatório A (t);

A lei é assim; A (t) = R -5t onde t representa o tempo que estamos considerando e é em minutos, enquanto R é o volume inicial de água no tanque.

The sum of their ages is 34. In other words:

[tex]A+N=34[/tex]

In 5 years time, Afful will be two times the age of Naomi now. In other words:

if the vertex of a parabola is (-4,6) and another point on the curve is (-3,14), what is the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (- 4, 6 ), thus

y = a(x + 4)² + 6

To find a substitute (- 3, 14) into the equation

14 = a(- 3 + 4)² + 6 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

8 = a

Thus the coefficient of the x² term is a = 8
