Answer:
(a) 283 days
(b) 248 days
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
The pregnancy length in days for a population of new mothers can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean of 268 days and a standard deviation of 12 days. (a) What is the minimum pregnancy length that can be in the top 11% of pregnancy lengths? (b) What is the maximum pregnancy length that can be in the bottom 5% of pregnancy lengths?
Solution:
The random variable X can be defined as the pregnancy length in days.
Then, from the provided information [tex]X\sim N(\mu=268, \sigma^{2}=12^{2})[/tex].
(a)
The minimum pregnancy length that can be in the top 11% of pregnancy lengths implies that:
P (X > x) = 0.11
⇒ P (Z > z) = 0.11
⇒ z = 1.23
Compute the value of x as follows:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\1.23=\frac{x-268}{12}\\\\x=268+(12\times 1.23)\\\\x=282.76\\\\x\approx 283[/tex]
Thus, the minimum pregnancy length that can be in the top 11% of pregnancy lengths is 283 days.
(b)
The maximum pregnancy length that can be in the bottom 5% of pregnancy lengths implies that:
P (X < x) = 0.05
⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.05
⇒ z = -1.645
Compute the value of x as follows:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.645=\frac{x-268}{12}\\\\x=268-(12\times 1.645)\\\\x=248.26\\\\x\approx 248[/tex]
Thus, the maximum pregnancy length that can be in the bottom 5% of pregnancy lengths is 248 days.
a number with 2 consecutive natural digits, how many units will it increase if written in reverse order. Detail solution pls
Answer:
It will increase by 9 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the lowest number as 10a + (a + 1) and the highest is the reverse which is 10(a + 1) + a.
Subtracting:
10(a + 1) + a - (10a + a +1)
= 10a + 10 + a - 10a - a - 1
= 10a - 10a + a - a + 10 - 1
= 10 - 1
= 9.
Find the perimeter of the following rectilinear figure.
Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation
You can't find the other sides, it may seem impossible, but you have to look at this problem in a different way. To find the perimeter of any figure you just need to know the top base, bottom base, right side, and left side.
We see that the top base equals to the bottom base as it is a rectilinear figure. You have to treat the side with 8 and side with 5 as one base. So they equal 13. Now do the same for the bottom.
So, 13 + 13 = 26
The right side is equal to the left side as it is a rectilinear figure, so the right side is 4 + 10 = 14. The left side is also 14.
So 14 + 14 = 28
26 + 28 = 54 units

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens. She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes and told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves. Which expression shows the number of pens each student got?
Answer:
x = (4y-6)/17
where x is the number of pens each student got.
Step-by-step explanation:
No. of boxes = 4
no. of pen in 1 box = y
total no, of pens in 4 box = No. of boxes *no. of pen in 1 box = 4y
No. of pen took away by Jaden's teacher = 6
no. of pens left = 4y - 6
This, 4y - 6 pen has to be divided among 17 students.
Let each student get x pen
thus, total no. of pen got by 17 student = 17x
This, 17x should be equal to total no. of pens available which is 4y-6
17x = 4y-6
=> x = (4y-6)/17
Thus, expression to represent number of pens each student got
is x = (4y-6)/17
Answer:
4y-6/17
Step-by-step explanation:
Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens.
Number of boxes of pen = 4
Number of pens per box = y
Total number of pens = 4 x y = 4y
She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves.
Total number of pens left = 4y - 6
Number of students = 17

Answer:
1. The Additive Inverse Property
2. Zero Product Property
Step-by-step explanation:
In the first step, we can see that we ad 4 and -4 to get to 0.
4 and -4 are opposites, and because of the Additive Inverse Property, they equal 0.
In the second step, we can see that we multiply y by 0. According to the Zero Product Property, anything multiplied by zero will equal 0.

PLEASE HELP!!! Jim made a table to show the length of his walking sticks.
Which walking sticks measured less than 3/5 meters? Choose 2 answers
Answer:
Stick 2: [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex]
Stick 3: [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which of the lengths are less than ⅗ meters, you would compare each given length with ⅗ meters.
Stick 1: Comparing ⁹/10 and ⅗
Find The common denominator of both fractions. 10 is the common denominator. Multiply the numerator and denominator of ⅗ by 2 to create a fraction equivalent to ⁹/10.
Thus,
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
Compare the numerator of [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] and [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
9 is greater than 6. This means [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] > [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{9}{10} [/tex] > [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 2: comparing ½ and ⅗
Common denominator = 10
Make both fractions equivalent to each other as follows,
[tex] \frac{1*5}{2*5} = \frac{5}{10} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
5 < 6. This means, [tex] \frac{5}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 3: comparing ⁴/10 and ⅗
Common denominator = 10
Make the fractions equivalent as follows,
[tex] \frac{4*1}{10*1} = \frac{4}{10} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3*2}{5*2} = \frac{6}{10} [/tex]
4 < 6. This means, [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{6}{10} [/tex].
Therefore, [tex] \frac{4}{10} [/tex] < [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]
Stick 4: comparing ⅘ and ⅗
Common denominator = 5
Since both denominators are already the same, both fractions are equivalent. Comparing their numerator, 4 > 3. Therefore, ⅘ > ⅗.

Find the equation of a circle with PQ as diameter, where P(2,-6) and Q(-6,-4)
Answer:
y=-¼x+⁴⁴/8
Step-by-step explanation:
p(2,-6). Q(-6-4)
p (x¹,y¹). Q(x²,y²)
1) find the gradient(slope)
gradient=y²-y¹
x²-x¹
gradient = -4-(-6)
-6-2
gradient= -4+6
-6-2
gradient=²/-8
2)equation is supposed to be in the form of y=mx+c
where m is the gradient
thus.
gradient=y²-y¹
x²-x¹
when finding the equation we only use one of the values of the coordinates leaving the other as an unknown value.
2 = y-(-4)
-8 x-(-6)
2 =y+4
-8. x+6
remove the denominators by cross multiplying that is:
2(x+6)= -8(y+4)
2x+12= -8y-32
express in the format y=mx+c
2x+12+32=-8y
2x+44=-8y.
divide all sides by -8 to remain with y
²/-8x+⁴⁴/-8=y
-¼x+ -⁴⁴/8=y
y=-¼x-⁴⁴/8

The average monthly rainfall for 6 months was 28.5 mm. If it had rained 1mm more each month what would the average have been? By how much would the total have been increased in six months and by how much would average have been increased per month? What's the answer??
Answer:
29.5 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the average monthly rainfall for 6 months was 28.5 mm.
Thus, total for the 6 months = 28.5 × 6 = 171 mm
Now, we are told that it rained 1 mm extra each month.
So extra for the six months = 1 × 6 = 6mm
New total for 6 months = 171 + 6 = 177 mm
So, new average for 6 months = 177/6 = 29.5 mm

Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{-5^2}{(-5)^2}[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{-25}{25}[/tex]
=> -1
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
-5^2 is -25 because you have to do exponents first, so 5^2 is 25. Add a negative symbol there, it becomes -25.
For the denominator, we do the exact same process, except a little different. Since there are parentheses around the negative five, we have to apply the negative symbol on the 5 before we do the exponents. After, we do -5^2 which is 25 because when you are multiplying negative, you always get a positive.
When we are all done with that, we put the numerator over the denominator to get -25/25, which is equivalent to -1.

If a coin is flipped five times and a head comes up two times, what is the relative frequency of head coming up? A) 0.40 B) 0.20 C) 0.60 D) 0.80
Answer:
A) 0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
5 goes into 100, 20 times. Each coin flip is equal to 0.20, so 2 heads would be 0.40.
Relative frequency of heads coming up is 0.40
Given,
Flipping of coin 5 times .
Here,
The probability of head and tail coming in a single flip of coin is equal .
P(H) = P(T) = 1/2
Thus there are equal number of chances for head and tail .
Here,
Two heads are coming in the flip of five times .
So,
Two heads will be coming up as
0.20 * 2
= 0.40

please help :) Which is a component of pseudoscience, but not science? A) explanations B) beliefs C) facts D) processes
The correct answer is B) Beliefs
Explanation:
Pseudoscience differs from science because this is based on personal beliefs or non-proven statements. For example, disciplines such as Astrology or Numerology are considered pseudoscience because these cannot be proven scientifically, are not based in facts or reality, and in general, do not follow the standards of science.

Answer:
1 2/3 = m
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 = m+3/5 -8/5
Combine terms
2/3 = m-5/5
2/3 = m -1

A 51-foot wire running from the top of a tent pole to the ground makes an angle of 58° with the ground. If the length of the tent pole is 44 feet, how far is it from the bottom of the tent pole to the point where the wire is fastened to the ground? (The tent pole is not necessarily perpendicular to the ground.)
Answer:
35.11 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
This given situation can be thought of as triangle [tex]\triangle PQR[/tex] where PQ is the length of pole.
PR is the length of rope.
and QR is the distance of bottom of pole to the point of fastening of rope to the ground.
And [tex]\angle Q \neq 90^\circ[/tex]
Given that:
PQ = 44 ft
PR = 51 ft
[tex]\angle R = 58^\circ[/tex]
To find:
Side QR = ?
Solution:
We can apply Sine Rule here to find the unknown side.
Sine Rule:
[tex]\dfrac{a}{sinA} = \dfrac{b}{sinB} = \dfrac{c}{sinC}[/tex]
Where
a is the side opposite to [tex]\angle A[/tex]
b is the side opposite to [tex]\angle B[/tex]
c is the side opposite to [tex]\angle C[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{PR}{sinQ}=\dfrac{PQ}{sinR}\\\Rightarrow sin Q =\dfrac{PR}{PQ}\times sinR\\\Rightarrow sin Q =\dfrac{51}{44}\times sin58^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle Q =79.41^\circ[/tex]
Now,
[tex]\angle P +\angle Q +\angle R =180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle P +58^\circ+79.41^\circ=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle P = 42.59^\circ[/tex]
Let us use the Sine rule again:
[tex]\dfrac{QR}{sinP}=\dfrac{PQ}{sinR}\\\Rightarrow QR =\dfrac{sinP}{sinR}\times PQ\\\Rightarrow QR =\dfrac{sin42.59}{sin58}\times 44\\\Rightarrow QR = 35.11\ ft[/tex]
So, the answer is 35.11 ft.
1. ABCD is a quadrilateral in which angle A = angle C and angle B = angle D
Prove that, if the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are equal, then the quadrilateral is a
parallelogram.
Answer:
Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram, quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel
Step-by-step explanation:
Statement, Reason
∠A = ∠C, Given
∠B = ∠D, Given
Therefore, we have
∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°, Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral
2×∠A + 2×∠B = 360°, Substitution property of equality
∴ ∠A + ∠B = 360°/2 = 180°
∠A + ∠B, are supplementary angles, Angles that sum up to 180°
Similarly,
∠C + ∠D, are supplementary angles, Angles that sum up to 180°
Therefore, segment DA is parallel to segment BC, (Lines with supplementary angles on the same side of the transversal)
Similarly, given ∠A = ∠C and ∠B = ∠D, we have;
∠A + ∠D and ∠C + ∠B are supplementary angles, Angles that sum up to 180°
Therefore, segment AB is parallel to segment DC, (Lines with supplementary angles on the same side of the transversal)
Therefore;
Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram, quadrilateral with parallel opposite sides.
