the weights of cars passing over a bridge have a mean of 3550 lb and a standard deviation of 870 pounds. Assume that the weights of cars passing over the bridge or never distributed. Use the empirical rule to estimate the probability that a randomly-selected car going over the bridge will weigh less than 940 lbs

The Weights Of Cars Passing Over A Bridge Have A Mean Of 3550 Lb And A Standard Deviation Of 870 Pounds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  a.  0.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Z-score of 940 pounds is ...

  (X -µ)/σ = (940 -3550)/870 = -3

The empirical rule tells you that 99.7% of the normal distribution lies within Z = ±3. Half of the remaining 0.3% lies below Z = -3, which is the set of weights of interest.

The probability that a car weighs less than 940 lbs is about 0.15%.

the mean of the data set {9, 5, y, 2, x } is twice the data set {8, x, 4, 1, 3}. What is (y-x)^2?​

Answers

Answer:

256

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the mean, we simply divide the sum of the values by the count.

For the first set, the mean is as follows;

(9 + 5 + 2 + y + x)/5 = (x + y + 16)/5

For the second set;

(8 + x + 4 + 1 + 3)/5 = (16 + x)/5

Since both are divided by 5, we can eliminate it

Mean of first set is twice the second

This means that;

x + y + 16 = 2(16 + x)

x + y + 16 = 32 + 2x

y = 32-16+2x-x

y = 16 + x

Now we want to calculate

(y-x)^2

substitute the value of y here

(16+x-x)^2

= 16^2 = 256

The measure of one angle is 130°. Which statement is true regarding the 130° angle and angle 3?


They are same-side interior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.

They are alternate interior angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

They are corresponding angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

They are alternate exterior angles, so angle 3 measures 50°.

Answers

Answer:

They are alternate interior angles, so angle 3 also measures 130°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the pair of angles are inside parallels, and at different sides of the transversal. So, those angles are alternate interior angles by definition, which means they are congruent.

Therefore, the right answer is B.

What is the product of ( x + 3) ( x - 4)?

I'm sure its x^2 - x - 12, but I wanted to double-check :D

Answers

Answer: x² - x - 12

Step-by-step explanation: When multiplying two binomials together, we can use the F.O.I.L. method.

First, Outer, Inner, Last.

We take the product of the first terms which is x² plus the product of the outer terms which is -4x plus the product of the inner terms which is 3x plus the product of the last terms which is -12.

So we have x² - 4x + 3x - 12.

Simplifying from here by combing the middle terms, we have x² - x - 12.

Pay very close attention to your positives and negatives as you F.O.I.L. because this is the area where most mistakes occur.

Answer:

x = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle are 180 degrees

x+114+33 = 180

Combine like terms

x+147 = 180

Subtract 147 from each side

x+147-157 = 180-147

x = 33

Answer:

x=33

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle must add up to 180 degrees. Therefore, the 3 angles inside the triangle should add to 180.

x+114+33=180

Combine like terms by adding 114 and 33

x+147=180

In order to solve this equation, we must get x isolated. Perform the inverse operation to both sides.

x+147=180

147 is being added on to x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 147 from both sides.

x+147-147=180-147

X=180-147

x=33

x is equal to 33 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

x ≈ 17.67 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² = 16² + 7.5² = 256 + 56.25 = 312.25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = [tex]\sqrt{312.25}[/tex] ≈ 17.67 ( to 2 dec. places )

The measure of hypotenuse length x would be 17.67 cm

What is Pythagoras Theorem?

If ABC is a triangle with AC as the hypotenuse and angle B with 90 degrees then we have:

|AC|² = |AB|² + |BC|²  

where |AB| = length of line segment AB. (AB and BC are rest of the two sides of that triangle ABC, AC being the hypotenuse).

Using the Pythagoras' identity in the right angled triangle.

hypotenuse²  = perpendicular²  + base²

x² = 16² + 7.5²

x²= 256 + 56.25

x²= 312.25

Now take the square root of both sides

x = √312.25

x =  ≈ 17.67 ( to 2 dec. places )

Therefore, the measure of hypotenuse length x would be 17.67 cm

Answers

Answer:

2/15 =  13 1/3 %

Step-by-step explanation:

eight yellow marbles, nine green marbles, three purple marbles, and five red marbles = 25

P(yellow) =  yellow/ total =8/25

Keep

7 yellow marbles, nine green marbles, three purple marbles, and five red marbles = 24

P(red) = red/total =5/24

P(yellow then red) = 8/25 * 5/24 = 1/15

Then we have (red, yellow) =

P(red) = red/ total =5/25 = 1/5

Keep

8 yellow marbles, nine green marbles, three purple marbles, and four red marbles = 24

P(yellow) = yellow/total =8/24 = 1/3

P(red, yellow) = 1/5*1/3 = 1/15

Add them together

No, because the graph should start at the origin D. Yes, because the amount of money on her gift card should decrease each week.

Answers

Answer:

D. Yes, because the amount of money on her gift card should decrease each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money on the gift card decreases every Friday as it states in the problem.

Yes Kate's graph represent the situation, because the amount of money on her gift card should decrease each week. so option D is correct.

What is Graph?

A graph contains data of which input maps to which output.

Analysis of this leads to the relations which were used to make it.

For example, if the graph of a function is rising upwards after a certain value of x, then the function must be having increasingly output for inputs greater than that value of x.

We can see that the graph shows that the slope is decreasing, if you got $75 and spend $5.00 each Friday, wouldn't that be  decrease and Lastly, of course, they should not start at the origin as they started at $75.00.

The amount of money on the gift card decreases every Friday as it states in the given situation.

(540 - π60 cm²) or 350cm³(351.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll have to subtract the volume of the rectangular prism with the cylinder.

We know that the prism's volume is V = s*s*h = 6*6*16 = 540 cm²

We also know the cylinder's volume: V = πr²h = π(4/2)²*15 = π*4*15 = π*60

Now the only step remaining is to subtract the volume of the prism with the cylinder: 540 - π*60 cm³

540 - π*60 cm³ is the full answer

350 is the approximate answer (rounded it down from 351.5 to 350cm³)
