Suppose the heights of the members of a population follow a normal distribution. If the mean height of the population is 68 inches and the standard deviation is 4 inches, 99.7% of the population will have a height
within which of the following ranges?

A. 56 inches to 80 inches
B. 64 inches to 72 inches
C. 60 inches to 76 inches
D. 52 inches to 84 inches

Answers

Answer 1
Final answer:

In a normal distribution, 99.7% of the data falls within three standard deviations from the mean. Given the mean of 68 and standard deviation of 4, 99.7% of the heights would range from 56 to 80 inches. Therefore, the answer is option A.

Explanation:

The question is about the normal distribution, a key concept in statistics. In a normal distribution, about 68% of the values fall within one standard deviation around the mean, 95% fall within two standard deviations, and 99.7% fall within three standard deviations. Since the mean height of the population is 68 inches and the standard deviation is 4 inches, three standard deviations from the mean would be 12 inches above and below the mean. Hence, 99.7% of the population's height would fall within the range of 68 inches - 12 = 56 inches and 68 inches + 12 = 80 inches.

So, the correct answer to this question is option A: 56 inches to 80 inches.

Answer 2
Final answer:

The range within which 99.7% of the population will have a height can be found using z-scores. The correct answer is option A. 56 inches to 80 inches

Explanation:

To find the range within which 99.7% of the population will have a height, we need to use the concept of z-scores.

The range is usually defined as the mean plus or minus a certain number of standard deviations.

In this case, 99.7% of the population would fall within three standard deviations of the mean.

So, the range would be 68 - (3 * 4) = 56 inches to 68 + (3 * 4) = 80 inches.

Therefore, the correct answer is A. 56 inches to 80 inches.

Answers

Answer:

(3 x - 2) (4 x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

Factor the quadratic 12 x^2 + x - 6.

The coefficient of x^2 is 12 and the constant term is -6.

The product of 12 and -6 is -72. The factors of -72 which sum to 1 are -8 and 9.

So 12 x^2 + x - 6 = 12 x^2 + 9 x - 8 x - 6 = 3 (3 x - 2) + 4 x (3 x - 2):

3 (3 x - 2) + 4 x (3 x - 2)

Factor 3 x - 2 from 3 (3 x - 2) + 4 x (3 x - 2):

Answer:  (3 x - 2) (4 x + 3)

The answer is (3 x - 2) (4 x + 3).

given sin28.4=.4756, cos28.4=.8796, and tan28.4=.5407 find the cot of 61.6

Answers

Answer:

The cotangent of 61.6° is .5407.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the sketch attached.

61.6° + 28.4° = 90°. In other words, 61.6° is the complementary angle of 28.4°.

Consider a right triangle OAB with a 61.6° angle [tex]\rm O\hat{A}B[/tex]. The other acute angle [tex]\rm O\hat{B}A[/tex] will be 28.4°.

[tex]\displaystyle \tan{61.6\textdegree{}}=\tan{\rm O\hat{A}B} = \frac{\text{Opposite of }\rm O\hat{A}B}{\text{Adjacent of }\rm O\hat{A}B} = \frac{a}{b}[/tex].

The cotangent of an angle is the reciprocal of its tangent.

[tex]\displaystyle \cot{61.6^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{\tan{\rm O\hat{B}A}} = \frac{\text{Adjacent of }\rm O\hat{B}A}{\text{Opposite of }\rm O\hat{B}A} = \frac{a}{b} = \tan{\rm O\hat{A}B} = \tan{28.4^{\circ}}[/tex].

25 Points ! Write a paragraph proof.
Given: ∠T and ∠V are right angles.
Prove: ∆TUW ∆VWU

Answers

Answer:

Δ TUW ≅ ΔVWU ⇒ by AAS case

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the cases of congruent for triangles

- SSS  ⇒ 3 sides in the 1st Δ ≅ 3 sides in the 2nd Δ

- SAS ⇒ 2 sides and including angle in the 1st Δ ≅ 2 sides and  

 including angle in the 2nd Δ  

- ASA ⇒ 2 angles and the side whose joining them in the 1st Δ  

 ≅ 2 angles and the side whose joining them in the 2nd Δ  

- AAS ⇒ 2 angles and one side in the first triangle ≅ 2 angles

 and one side in the 2ndΔ

- HL ⇒ hypotenuse leg of the first right angle triangle ≅ hypotenuse

 leg of the 2nd right angle Δ

* Lets solve the problem

- There are two triangles TUW and VWU

- ∠T and ∠V are right angles

- LINE TW is parallel to line VU

∵ TW // VU and UW is a transversal

∴ m∠VUW = m∠TWU ⇒ alternate angles (Z shape)

- Now we have in the two triangles two pairs of angle equal each

 other and one common side, so we can use the case AAS

- In Δ TUW and ΔVWU

∵ m∠T = m∠V ⇒ given (right angles)

∵ m∠TWU = m∠VUW ⇒ proved

∵ UW = WU ⇒ (common side in the 2 Δ)

∴ Δ TUW ≅ ΔVWU ⇒ by AAS case

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ∠T and ∠V are right angles.

TW ║ UV

To prove ⇒ ΔTUW ≅ ΔVWU

Proof ⇒ In ΔTUW and ΔVUW,

∠T ≅ ∠ V ≅ 90° (given)

Side UW ≅ UW ( Common in both the triangles )

TW ║ UV

and UW is a transverse.

So ∠TWU ≅ ∠WUV [alternate interior angles]

Since Angle = Angle = side are equal

Therefore, ΔTUW ≅ ΔVWU

Jorge wants to determine the enlarged dimensions of a digital photo to be used as wallpaper on his computer screen. The original photo was 800 pixels wide by 600 pixels high. The new photo will be 1,260 pixels wide. What will the new height be?

Answers

Answer: [tex]945\ pixels[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know  that the original photo was 800 pixels wide and the new photo will be 1,260 pixels wide. Therefore,  we can find the scale factor.

Divide the width of the new photo by the width of the original photo. Then the scale factor is:

[tex]scale\ factor=\frac{1,260\ pixels}{800\ pixels}\\\\scale\ factor=\frac{63}{40}[/tex]

The final step is to multiply the height of the original photo by the scale factor calculated.

Therefore the height of the new photo will be:

[tex]h_{new}=(600\ pixels)(\frac{63}{40})\\\\h_{new}=945\ pixels[/tex]

Answer:

945 pixels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The original photo dimensions are (800 wide x 600 high )pixelsThe new photo is 1,260 pixels wide.

First, we need to find the scale factor by dividing

[tex]s=\frac{1260}{800}=1.575[/tex]

Then, we multiply the height by the scale factor

[tex]600 \times 1.575 = 945[/tex]

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

(x + 1)(x + 1 + 11) = (x + 4)(x + 4 + 1)

(x + 1)(x + 12) = (x + 4)(x + 5) ← expand both sides

x² + 13x + 12 = x² + 9x + 20

Subtract x² + 9x from both sides

4x + 12 = 20 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

4x = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

Find the 11th term of this sequence -10, 20, -40

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the nth term of the geometric sequence  is :  An =A1 × r^(n-1)

A1 = -10

r= -40/20=20/-10=-2

n =11

A11 = -10× (-2)^(11-1)

A11 = -10× (-2)^(10)

A11 = - 10240

Answer:

-10,240.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence with common ratio 20/-10 = -40/20 = -2.

The nth term = a1r^(n-1)   where a1 = the first term and r = the common ratio, so the 11th term = -10 * (-2)^ (11-1)

= -10 * 1024

= -10,240.

Answers

Answer:

12x=2pi*r

Step-by-step explanation:

2*22/7*r=12x

r=12x*7/44

r=21x/11

The radius of a circle is calculated by dividing the given circumference by 2π. When given circumferences of 6 inches, 6π inches, 12 inches, and 24π inches, the corresponding radii are approximately 0.955 inches, 3 inches, 1.91 inches, and 12 inches, respectively.

To find the radius of a circle given its circumference, we use the formula for the circumference of a circle, which is C = 2πr, where C is the circumference and r is the radius. Since we are given the circumference, we can rearrange this formula to solve for the radius as follows: r = C / (2π).

Given the possible circumferences provided, we can calculate the radius for each.

For 6 inches: r = 6 / (2π) = 6 / (2 * 3.14) = 6 / 6.28 = approximately 0.955 inches

For 6π inches: r = 6π / (2π) = 6 / 2 = 3 inches

For 12 inches: r = 12 / (2π) = 12 / (2 * 3.14) = 12 / 6.28 = approximately 1.91 inches

For 24π inches: r = 24π / (2π) = 24 / 2 = 12 inches

Solve the given inequality. If necessary, round to four decimal places.


13^4a < 19

Answers

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is a < 0.2870

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the exponential function

- the exponential function is f(x) = ab^x , where b is a constant and x

 is a variable

- To solve this equation use ㏒ or ㏑

- The important rule ㏒(a^n) = n ㏒(a) OR ㏑(a^n) = n ㏑(a)

* Lets solve the problem

∵ 13^4a < 19

- To solve this inequality insert ㏑ in both sides of inequality

∴ ㏑(13^4a) < ㏑(19)

∵ ㏑(a^n) = n ㏑(a)

∴ 4a ㏑(13) < ㏑(19)

- Divide both sides by ㏑(13)

∴ 4a < ㏑(19)/㏑(13)

- To find the value of a divide both sides by 4

∴ a < [㏑(19)/㏑(13)] ÷ 4

∴ a < 0.2870

* The solution of the inequality is a < 0.2870

Answer:

a < 0.2870

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following inequality which we are to solve, rounding it to four decimal places:

[tex] 1 3 ^ { 4 a } < 1 9 [/tex]

To solve this, we will apply the following exponent rule:

[tex] a = b ^ { l o g _ b ( a ) } [/tex]

[tex]19=13^{log_{13}(19)}[/tex]

Changing it back to an inequality:

[tex]13^{4a}<13^{log_{13}(19)}[/tex]

If [tex]a > 1[/tex] then [tex]a^{f(x)}<a^{g(x)}[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]f(x)}< g(x)[/tex].

Here, [tex]a=13[/tex], [tex]f(x)=4a[/tex] and [tex]g(x)= log_{13}(19)[/tex].

[tex]4a<log_{13}(19)[/tex]

[tex]a<\frac{log_{13}(19)}{4}[/tex]
