The following probabilities are based on data collected from U.S. adults. Individuals are placed into a weight category based on weight, height, gender and age.

Underweight Healthy Weight Overweight (not Obese) Obese
Probability 0.017 0.377 0.343 0.263

Based on this data, what is the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult weighs less than the overweight(but not obese) range?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult weighs less than the overweight(but not obese) is 0.394

Step-by-step explanation:

  Given the data in the question;

                Underweight   Healthy Weight    Overweight (not Obese)    Obese

Probability       0.017              0.377                        0.343                          0.263

so

P( underweight) = 0.017

P( Healthy Weight) = 0.377

P( Overweight (not Obese) ) = 0.343

P( Obese ) = 0.263

now, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult weighs less than the overweight(but not obese) range will be;

P( weigh less than overweight(but not obese) =  P( underweight) + P( Healthy Weight)

P( weigh less than overweight(but not obese) = 0.017 +  0.377

P( weigh less than overweight(but not obese) = 0.394

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected U.S. adult weighs less than the overweight(but not obese) is 0.394

PLEASE HELP ASAP I WILL GIVE YOU BRAINIEST!! Marcus is 14 years younger than twice Kimi's age. Marcus is 8 years old. How old is Kimi?

Answers

Answer: kimi is 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Kimi is 11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

We can read 'twice Kimi's age' as Kimi's age times 2 and

'14 years younger' as  minus 14.

Our equation is

2(Kimi's age)-14= Marcus' age

Since Marcus is 8:

2(Kimi's age)-14= 8

Now we manipulate the equation so that it equals Kimi's age. Remember that whatever we do to the right side, we also do to the left.

First we add 14 to both sides

2(Kimi's age)-14(+14)= 8(+14)

2(Kimi's age)= 22

Then we divide by 2

2(Kimi's age)/2= 22/2

Kimi's age=11

Usually we would us X to represent our unknown, Kimi's age, but I left it as Kimi's age so that it is easier to follow.

On one day, 4 chefs and 5 helpers earned $650.

On another day working the same number of hours
at the same rate of pay, 5 chefs and 6 helpers
earned $800.

How much does a chef earn each
day?

Answers

4c + 5h = 650 and

5c + 6h = 800 where c are chefs, h are helpers

Start by finding an expression for c

4c + 5h = 650
4c = 650 -5h
c = (650- 5h)/4

Then substitute that into the second equation and solve for a number value for h
5 (650-5h)/4 + 6h = 800
(3250-25h)/4 + 6h = 800
Multiply both sides by 4
3250-25h + 24h = 3200
-h = -50
h = 50

Take that 50 and substitute it into the expression we have for c to get a number value for c

C= 650-5(50)/4
C = 650-250/4
C = 400/4
C= 100

Check your first equations, substituting $50 for the helpers and $100 for the chefs.

4 (100) + 5(50) =
400 + 250 = 650

5(100) + 6(50) =
500 + 300 = 800

m<7 = 49°

m<8 = 41°

m<9 = 49°

m<10 = 41°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

m<7 ≅ m<9

m<8 = 41°

m<7 = 90° - m<8 (complementary angles)

m<7 = 90° - 41° (substitution)

m<7 = 49°

m<9 = m<7 (m<7 ≅ m<9)

m<9 = 49° (substitution)

m<10 = 90 - m<9

m<10 = 90 - 49

m<10 = 41°

Answers

Answer:

38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

You are basically looking at a triangle with a 90° angle (check picture).

Since we are looking for the ramp's angle and are given the length of the opposite and the hypothenuse, we have to solve the following equation:

[tex]sin (\alpha) = opposite / hypothenuse= 5 ft/8ft[/tex]

which is equivalent to

[tex]\alpha = sin^{-1}(5/8)\approx 38.7\deg[/tex]

NEED HELP W GEOMETRY

In △
ABC, ∡A
is 2 more than twice ∡B
, and ∡C
is 7 less than twice ∡B
. What is the measure of each angle in △
ABC and what is its classifications?

Answers

Answers:

Angle A = 76Angle B = 37Angle C = 67

Triangle ABC is an acute triangle. It's also a scalene triangle.

====================================================

Work Shown:

x = measure of angle B

2x+2 = measure of angle A, since we're told its "2 more than twice angle B"

2x-7 = measure of angle C, for similar reasoning

The three angles add to 180. This is true for any triangle

A+B+C = 180

(2x+2)+(x)+(2x-7) = 180

5x-5 = 180

5x = 180+5

5x = 185

x = 185/5

x = 37

This means angle B is 37 degrees. The other two angles are

A = 2x+2 = 2*37+2 = 74+2 = 76

C = 2x-7 = 2*37-7 = 74-7 = 67

----------------

In summary, we have these three interior angles

A = 76B = 37C = 67

As a way to check, note how A+B+C = 76+37+67 = 180. This confirms the answer. All three angles mentioned are smaller than 90 degrees, so this triangle is acute.

Furthermore, because all three angles are different measures, this means all three sides are different lengths. This leads to triangle ABC being scalene.

Helpppp!!!!!! After a few rides, your friends are ready for some ice cream! You stop into Scoops to You for some ice-cream. Which is the better deal?
3 scoops for $3.69

2 scoops for $2.69

1 scoop for $1.79

Answers

Answer:

3 scoops for $3.69  is better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

There are 3 deals to buy icecram.

3 scoops for $3.69  

2 scoops for $2.69  

1 scoop for $1.79

We can find the cost of 1 scoop for each deal. So,

First deal,

1 scoop = 3.69/3 = $1.23

Second deal,

1 scoop = 2.69/2 = 1.345

We can see that the cost of 1 scoop for deal 1 is less than others. It means first deal is best.

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequalities are,

81 > x and x > 68

Therefore, 81 > x > 68 is the inequality representing the solution area for x.

Out of x = 88, 85 and 80,

x = 80 will lie between the range of x = 68 and x = 81.

Therefore, Option (C) will be the correct option.

Where:

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (4,15)[/tex]

So, we have:
