The air force reports that the distribution of heights of male pilots is approximately normal, with a mean of 72.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.7 inches.

Part A: A male pilot whose height is 74.2 inches is at what percentile? Mathematically explain your reasoning and justify your work. (5 points)

Part B: Air force fighter jets can accommodate heights of soldiers between 70 inches and 78 inches without compromising safety. Anyone with a height outside that interval cannot fly the fighter jets. Describe what this interval looks like if displayed visually. What percent of male pilots are unable to fly according to this standard? Show your work and mathematically justify your reasoning. (5 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) The pilot is at the 72th percentile.

b) 19.13% of pilots are unable to fly.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 72.6, \sigma = 2.7[/tex].

Item a:

The percentile is the p-value of Z when X = 74.2, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{74.2 - 72.6}{2.7}[/tex]

Z = 0.59

Z = 0.59 has a p-value of 0.7224.

72th percentile.

Item b:

The proportion that is able to fly is the p-value of Z when X = 78 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 70, hence:

X = 78:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{78 - 72.6}{2.7}[/tex]

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a p-value of 0.9772.

X = 70:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{70 - 72.6}{2.7}[/tex]

Z = -0.96

Z = -0.96 has a p-value of 0.1685.

0.9772 - 0.1685 = 0.8087 = 80.87%.

Hence the percentage that is unable to fly is:

100 - 80.87 = 19.13%.

The changes to a polygon

1. If the number of sides of the polygon should increase then the measure of the interior angle would increase by 180.

2. A regular polygon has the sum of its external angles as 360. This is solved as 360/n = 0

Hence the value of the exterior would move towards 0 as its sides increases.

4. As the total sum of the of the polygon changes, it would tend towards infinity.

5. The total sum of the exterior angles as the number of sides changes would tends towards 360 degrees.

That's all, you don't have to show work, but I'd appreciate it:) asap pls

Answers

Equation #1:

-15+4r=-9

We move all terms to the left:

-15+4r-(-9)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

4r-6=0

We move all terms containing r to the left, all other terms to the right

4r=6

r=6/4

r=1+1/2

Equation #2:

5-y/3=-1

We move all terms to the left:

5-y/3-(-1)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-y/3+6=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

-y+6*3=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1y+18=0

We move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right

-y=-18

y=-18/-1

y=+18

Equation #3:

Simplifying

42 = 5x + -8

Reorder the terms:

42 = -8 + 5x

Solving

42 = -8 + 5x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-5x' to each side of the equation.

42 + -5x = -8 + 5x + -5x

Combine like terms: 5x + -5x = 0

42 + -5x = -8 + 0

42 + -5x = -8

Add '-42' to each side of the equation.

42 + -42 + -5x = -8 + -42

Combine like terms: 42 + -42 = 0

0 + -5x = -8 + -42

-5x = -8 + -42

Combine like terms: -8 + -42 = -50

-5x = -50

Divide each side by '-5'.

4. Write the function of a linear equation that includes the

Answers

Answer:

y = 6x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form ( linear function ) is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

calculate m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 3 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 9 )

m = [tex]\frac{9-3}{2-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{6}{1}[/tex] = 6 , then

y = 6x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Given:  [tex]\textsf{Slope = -6/5, Goes through (0, 2)}[/tex]

Find:  [tex]\textsf{The equation in point-slope form}[/tex]

Solution: We need to take the values that were given to us and plug them into the point-slope form.  It doesn't seem like the problem is asking for anything more than that so we will leave it at that.

Plug in the values

[tex]\textsf{y - y}_1\textsf{ = m(x - x}_1\textsf{)}[/tex][tex]\textsf{y - 2 = -6/5(x - 0)}[/tex]

Since the problem is just asking for the equation in point-slope form the final expression would be y - 2 = -6/5(x - 0).

Answer:

[tex]\sf y - 2 = -\dfrac{6}{5}(x - 0)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf \large \underline{\textsf{Given:}}\ \textsf{a line with a slope of $-\dfrac{6}{5}$, and a y-intercept of $2$}[/tex]

We're given a y-intercept of 2, but using the slope-intercept form, we can immediately determine that x = 0. Hence, the given point is (0, 2).

Then, we substitute these values into the Point-Slope Form to find the equation.

Here are both forms for future reference:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

[ Where: m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept (when x = 0). ]

Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

[ Where: m is the slope, and (x₁, y₁) is a given point. ]

Substitute the values into the Point-Slope Form:

Step-by-step explanation:

uiwgorihvncjkdnskv

It takes 15 seconds for the first cyclist to overtake the second cyclist.

How can you find how long it took before the first cyclist overtakes the second?

First, identify the two phases of the first cyclist's motion.

Phase 1: The cyclist accelerates from rest to a constant speed of 8 m/s.

Phase 2: The cyclist travels at a constant speed of 8 m/s.

Find the equations of the two straight-line sections of the graph.

The equations of the two straight-line sections of the graph are as follows:

Phase 1:

s = [tex]2t^2[/tex]

Phase 2:

s = 8t

where s is the distance traveled by the cyclist and t is the time

Set the two equations equal to each other to find the time it takes the first cyclist to overtake the second cyclist

The first cyclist overtakes the second cyclist when the first cyclist has traveled a distance of 8 m more than the second cyclist.

Let t be the time it takes the first cyclist to overtake the second cyclist.

The distance traveled by the first cyclist is then 8t, and the distance traveled by the second cyclist is 8(t - 5).

Setting these two expressions equal to each other, we get:

8t = 8(t - 5)

Solving for t, we get:

t = 15

Therefore, it takes 15 seconds for the first cyclist to overtake the second cyclist

Now as an adult, she has trouble remembering almost all of her childhood because she has blocked it out of her memory. Her closest friends tell her that she acts drastically different from time to time, usually dressing differently, talking differently, and even going by different names.

Given the above information, we might conclude that Luciana is suffering from: Which of the following could be the first step in solving the equation below 4+2log_(3)x=17 What did you include in your response?

What is the main benefit of the dsu for team members A 3,204 kg tree positioned on the edge of a cliff 247 m above the ground breaks away and falls into the valley below which is considered zero potential energy. If the trees mechanical energy is conserved, what is the speed of the tree just before it hits the ground in meters/sec?
