P(T<575)\approx

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, the product is composed by flakes and raisins, and we have that:

[tex]\mu_F = 370, \sigma_F = 24, \mu_R = 170, \sigma_R = 7[/tex]

Hence, the distribution for the total amount of product has mean and standard deviation given by:

[tex]\mu = \mu_F + \mu_R = 370 + 170 = 540[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_F^2 + \sigma_R^2} = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} = 25[/tex]

The probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g is the p-value of Z when X = 575, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{575 - 540}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9192.

0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

9. A cheetah is located 100 yards away from an antelope. The cheetah begins running on a straight path toward the antelope at a constant speed of 30 yards per second. At the same time, the antelope begins running away from the cheetah at a constant speed of 25 yards per second. If both animals continue to run on a straight path at the same speeds, how long will it take for the cheetah to catch up to the antelope?​

Answers

It takes 20 seconds for the cheetah to catch up to the antelope

Speed is the ratio of distance to time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let d represent the distance covered by the cheetah at time t, hence:

30 = d / t

t = d / 30

The antelope is 100 yards away, hence:

25 = (d - 100) / t

t = (d - 100)/25

d/30 = (d - 100)/25

25d = 30d - 3000

d = 600 yards

t = d/30 = 600/30 = 20 seconds

It takes 20 seconds for the cheetah to catch up to the antelope

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

these are both quadratic curves, parabolas, and factorization means to express the 2 terms as multiplication with each other, so that the result would be the simplified function. in other words : find the two factor terms that make the whole function.

the advantage of factorization is to see the 2 solutions for y=0 right away.

the general form is

y = (x + a)(x + b)

and the y=0 solutions are then simply x = -a and x = -b.

in example 3 we have 2 different y=0 solutions, seemingly at x = 1 and x = 5.

that makes the factorization :

y = (x - 1)(x - 5)

when x becomes one of these values, the corresponding factor becomes 0 and therefore y becomes 0 too.

in example 4 we have only one y=0 solution (or so it seems; in fact there are still formally 2 solutions, they are just equal).

it is seemingly at x = -2.

since both solutions are equal, we have also two equal factors.

that makes the factorization

y = (x + 2)(x + 2) = (x + 2)²

(d) Use your graph to estimate how much each person earned, check your work with part C, and explain your results in complete sentences. Answer:

pls hurry its due tomorrow​

Answers

Answer:

s = 250

a = 225

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they both earned a total of 475 dollars, the total amount of the two is 475. Because a represents Alto's earnings, and s represents Sheryl's earnings, we have [tex]a+s=475[/tex]

Sheryl also earned 25 more dollars than Alto, so the value of s is 25 larger than a: [tex]s=a+25[/tex]

By graphing, we can let s = y and a = x, so we have the following equations:

[tex]x + y=475\\y=x+25[/tex]

Plugging this into Desmos, we have this: (look at screenshot uploaded)

We see that y, or Sheryl's amount is around 250, and x, or Alto's amount is in the middle of 200 and 250, roughly about 225.

Now, we can solve for a and s. Because the value of s is equal to a + 25, we can represent s as a + 25 in the first equation: [tex]a + (a + 25) = 475[/tex]. Combining like terms, we have [tex]2a+25=475[/tex], and [tex]2a = 450[/tex]. Dividing, we have [tex]a = 225[/tex], and since s is 25 more than 225, we have [tex]s = 250[/tex]

The amount we estimated was around what we solved for. We found that the solution, or the value where both cases are true is around 250 and 225 for Sheryl and Alto's earnings.

Answer:

  AE = CE = 12 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles BDF and BCF are base angles of their respective isosceles triangles. That means the a.pex angle of each, DBF and ABC respectively is ...

  180° -2×30° = 120°

In your diagram, BC is 120° from the -x axis, so is 60° from the +x axis. It bisects the angle DBE. Similarly, BE is 120° from the +x axis, so is 60° from the -x axis. It bisects angle ABC. In an isosceles triangle, the a.pex angle bisector is an altitude and is the perpendicular bisector of the base segment. Any point on that line is equidistant from the base vertices.

Point C lies on the perpendicular bisector of DE, so CD ≅ CE = 12 in.

Point E lies on the perpendicular bisector of AC, so EC ≅ EA = 12 in.

The measurements of interest are ...

  AE = CE = 12 in.

_____

Additional comment

Point F serves no purpose except to confuse the issue. Each of the angles that reference point F could be described equally well using a different point:

  ∠BDF = ∠BDE

  ∠BCF = ∠BCA

This makes it more obvious that the triangles of interest are similar.

Answer:

12

12

Step-by-step explanation:

see the below figure

i got that both triangles are similar

we get that in triangle ABC angle BCF is 30

so angle A is also 30 (isosceles)

so the remaining angle ABC is 120

and angle CBD becomes 180 - 120 = 60

now in triangle BDE angle BDF is 30

so angle BED is also 30

now angle EBC becomes 120 - angle CBD = 120 - 60

and got angles ABE EBC CBD as 60 each

so three 60 degree angles are formed at vertex B as shown in the figure

 tw0 30 30 120 degree triangles are similar

BC becomes perpendicular angular bisector of ED

C is a point on that line which is at equal distance from the base vertices

so CD = CE = 12

here BE is perpendicular bisector of AC

so AE = EC = 12

Answers

Answer:

K) I, II, and III

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic equation in standard form, h = -at² + bt + c, where h is the height or the projectile of a baseball that changes over time, t.  In the given quadratic equation, c represents the constant term. Altering the constant term, c, affects the h-intercept, the maximum value of h, and the t-intercept of the quadratic equation.  

I. The h-intercept

The h-intercept is the value of the height, h, when t = 0. This means that setting t = 0 will leave you with the value of the constant term. In other words:

Set t = 0:

h = -at² + bt + c

h = -a(0)² + b(0) + c

h = -a(0) + 0 + c

h = 0 + c

h = c

Therefore, the value of the h-intercept is the value of c.

Hence, altering the value of c will also change the value of the h-intercept.

II. The maximum value of h

The maximum value of h occurs at the vertex, (t, h ). Changing the value of c affects the equation, especially the maximum value of h. To find the value of the t-coordinate of the vertex, use the following formula:

t = -b/2a

The value of the t-coordinate will then be substituted into the equation to find its corresponding h-coordinate. Thus, changing the value of c affects  the corresponding h-coordinate of the vertex because you'll have to add the constant term into the rest of the terms within the equation. Therefore, altering the value of c affects the maximum value of h.

III. The t-intercept

The t-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the t-axis, and is also the value of t when h = 0. The t-intercept is the zero or the solution to the given equation. To find the t-intercept, set h = 0, and solve for the value of t.  Solving for the value of t includes the addition of the constant term, c, with the rest of the terms in the equation.  Therefore, altering the value of c also affects the t-intercept.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option K: I, II, and III.

a three dimensional shape can be defined as a solid figure or an object or shape that has three dimensions—length, width, and height.

Given that a solid right square prism is cut into 4 equal pieces parallel to its bases

The volume of each piece is V = 1/4s²h.

We have to solve for s

4V/h=s²

Take square root on both sides

√4V/h = s

2√V/h = s
