Find the area under the standard normal curve to the left of z = −2.8 and to the right of z = 2.06

Answers

Answer 1
z₁ = -2.8 correspond to an area of = 0.0026
z₂ = 2.06 correspond to an area of = 0.9750

z₁ ≤ Area ≤ z₂  ↔ z₂ - z₁ = 0.9750 - 0.0026 = 0.9724
Answer Area = 0.9724

Answer 2

The area under the standard normal curve to the left of z = −2.8 and to the right of z = 2.06 is 0.9776.

Given that, z₁ = -2.8 and z₂ = 2.06.

What is normal a distribution?

It is also called the Gaussian Distribution. It is the most important continuous probability distribution. The curve looks like a bell, so it is also called a bell curve.

The z-score is a numerical measurement used in statistics of the value's relationship to the mean of a group of values, measured in terms of standards from the mean.

The area under the standard normal curve to the left of z = −2.8 and to the right of z = 2.06 will be calculated as follows:

The standard normal table represents the area under the curve.

P(z<-2.8) ∩ P(z>2.06)=P(z<-2.8) + P(z>2.06)------(1)

According to the standard normal table, we have

z = -2.8 correspond to an area of = 0.0026

z = 2.06 correspond to an area of = 0.9750

Substitute these values in equation 1, we have

P(z<-2.8) + P(z>2.06) = 0.9750 + 0.0026 = 0.9776

Therefore, the area under the standard normal curve to the left of z = −2.8 and to the right of z = 2.06 is 0.9776.

A. 170
B. 95
C. 47.5
D. 42.5

Answers

C: 47.5 is the answer 

Answer: The answer is (C) 47.5.

Step-by-step explanation:  In the given figure, O is the centre of a circle, where AC is the diameter and OB is the radius. We are to find the measure of ∠BAC.

We have

[tex]m\angle AOB+m\angle BOC=180^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow m\angle BOC=180^\circ-85^\circ\\\\\Rightarrow m\angle BOC =95^\circ.[/tex]

∠BOC and ∠BAC are angles at the centre and at the circumference subtended by the arc BC, so

[tex]m\angle BAC=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\angle BOC=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 95^\circ=47.5^\circ.[/tex]

Thus, (C) is the correct option.

You are getting a line-up ready for a school kickball game. you have 55 girls and 55 boys. the rules state each child must kick the same number of times and alternate girl-boy or boy-girl. how many ways can a line-up be made for one round of kicking

Answers

To solve this problem, we must first imagine out that the sequence of the children is either 
GBGBGB.... or BGBGBG....

So there are 2 possible sequence all in all. Now to solve for the total arrangements per sequence, the girls can be arranged in n! ways in their alloted spots, and so can the boys n! in their alternate spots, therefore:
Total arrangements = 2 * n! * n!

 

If n = 55

Total arrangements = 2 * 55! * 55!

Total arrangements = (The answer is very big ~almost infinite)

 

If n = 5

Total arrangements = 2 * 5! * 5!

Total arrangements = 28,800

 

So I believe the correct given is 5 boys and 5 girls and there are a total of 28,800 arrangements.

Answers

The first thing I did was plot the given two points: (3,0) and (0,4). I connected the two hollow dots and created a line. Then, I shaded the region below the line as mentioned in the problem. The result is show in the picture.

The detail about dashed line is important because it expresses an equality with a symbol < or >. The data points that coincide with that line is not part of the solution but just stand as a boundary, hence, I used dashed line and hollow points. If it were ≥ or ≤, then we use solid lines and dots. With that, we can already eliminate choice D.

Next, we test the inequality. Let's choose a point within the shaded region. Suppose the point is (1,0) denoted by the red dot. If it is part of the solution, then the inequality will be proven true.

A. 4x-3y>-12

Write the ratio in lowest terms: 4415 feet to 22245 feet

Answers

since they both end with 5 divide each number by 5

4415 = 883

22245/5 = 4449

there is no number that can go into 883 evenly

 so the lowest term

 would be 883/4449

The correct ratio in lowest terms is [tex]\(\frac{883}{4449}\)[/tex].

To find the ratio in lowest terms, we first write the ratio of the two given lengths:

[tex]\[ \frac{4415 \text{ feet}}{22245 \text{ feet}} \][/tex]

Next, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD) to simplify the ratio. The GCD of 4415 and 22245 can be found by using the Euclidean algorithm or by inspection.

We can start by dividing both numbers by 5:

[tex]\[ \frac{4415 \div 5}{22245 \div 5} = \frac{883}{4449} \][/tex]

Now, we check if 883 and 4449 have any common divisors other than 1. Since 883 is a prime number and does not divide evenly into 4449, we have found the simplest form of the ratio.

Thus, the ratio of 4415 feet to 22245 feet in lowest terms is [tex]\(\frac{883}{4449}\)[/tex].

 answer is 576 cubic centimeters

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism varies jointly with the length and width of the figure when the height remains constant.

Let the height of both rectangular prism be h cm.

The volume of a prism is

[tex]V=l\times b\times h[/tex]

Where, l is length, b is breadth or width and h is height.

The volume of a rectangular prism is 672 cubic centimeters. The figure has a length of 8 centimeters and a width of 14 centimeters.

[tex]672=8\times 14\times h[/tex]

[tex]672=112h[/tex]

Divide both sides by 112.

[tex]\frac{672}{112}=h[/tex]

[tex]6=h[/tex]

The value of h is 6 cm. It means the height of both prism is 6 cm.

A second prism has a length of 12 centimeters and a width of 8 centimeters.  So, the volume of second prism is

[tex]V=12 \times 8\times 6[/tex]

[tex]V=576[/tex]

The volume of second prism is 576 cubic centimeters. Therefore the correct option is 1.

Bret is starting a business selling handmade necklaces. He has decided to invest and initial amount of $387 for advertising and materials cost seven dollars for each necklace he makes. Bret can sell his creations for $10 per necklace.once he makes and sells a certain number of necklaces he will break even with identical expenses and sales. How many necklaces would that take? What would the total expenses and sales be then?

Answers

alrighty

each necklace costs him 7 dollars but he gets 10 dollars from selling them
so his profit per necklace=10-7=3 per necklace

so we want to find how many necklaces he needs to make and sell to cover the initial investment

the cost is 387
divide it by the profit per necklace
387/3=129
needs to make 129 necklaces
the total expenses would be equal to the total sales
ok, the sales are 10 dollars and 129 necklaces so total sales is 1290 dollars and so then the expenses are 1290 dollars



129 necklaces
total expensese is $1290
total sales is $1290
Final answer:

To break even, Bret would need to make and sell 40 necklaces, with a total expense of $15,760 and total sales of $400.

Explanation:

To determine the number of necklaces Bret needs to make and sell to break even, we need to consider his initial investment and the expenses and sales associated with each necklace.

First, let's calculate the total expenses for each necklace: $7 (materials cost) + $387 (initial investment) = $394.

Next, let's calculate the total sales for each necklace: $10 (selling price).

To break even, the total expenses and total sales need to be equal.

Let n represent the number of necklaces:

Total expenses = $394 * n

Total sales = $10 * n

Setting the two equations equal to each other, we have: $394 * n = $10 * n.

Now, let's solve for n:

$394 * n = $10 * n

$394 = $10

n = 394 / 10

n = 39.4

Since we cannot sell a fraction of a necklace, Bret would need to make and sell 40 necklaces to break even.

The total expenses for 40 necklaces would be $394 * 40 = $15,760, and the total sales would be $10 * 40 = $400.

literal equations, please help! this one is confusing to me.

Answers

What is asked here is that you isolate y so that the equation takes the form of y = ..., where ... will be something that contains a, b and c but not y. So how do we get there? By applying some standard permutations to equations like so:

aby - b = c

First, we bring the -b term to the right hand side by adding b left and right:

aby -b+b = c+b

The -b and +b cancel out, so we get:

aby = c + b

Then, we divide left and right hand side by ab:

aby/ab = (c+b)/ab

Again, the ab/ab on the left cancels out (it is 1), so we get:

y = (c+b)/ab

And we're done!

So you have to know that it is allowed to add or subtract something (anything) to/from the left and right hand side of an equation. Likewise, you have to know that it is allowed to multiply or divide by something, as long as it isn't 0.


Points A and B lie on a circle centered at point O. If OA = 5 and length of ABowncircumference=14, what is the area of sector AOB? Use the value π = 3.14, and choose the closest answer.

Answers

This question can simply be answered directly. To solve this, we should recall that the formula of a circle is:

Area of circle = π r^2                       where r is the radius of the circle

Now we are given that segment OA is equivalent to 5 units. Segment OA is also the diameter of that circle therefore d = 5.

Now let us convert the formula knowing that radius is one half the diameter:

r = d / 2

Area of circle = π (d / 2)^2

Area of circle = π d^2 / 4

Substituting:

Area of circle = π (5)^2 / 4

Area of circle = 3.14 * 25 / 4

Area of circle = 19.625 = 19.6 square units

Part 1: what are the conditions for using the standard deviation formula when conducting a significance test? be specific about p versus p-hat. part 2: what are the conditions for approximating with a normal distribution?'

Answers

The conditions that must be met when using the standard deviation formula when conducting a significance test are that the samples should be independent of each other and the variance is known and not infinite.
The difference between p and p-hat is that p represents that true standard deviation of the population while p-hat is only an approximation using a sample of the population. 
The conditions that must be met when approximating a normal distribution are that the samples must be independent of each other and that number of samples must be at least 30.
Final answer:

To use the standard deviation formula in a significance test, the sample must be random and the population standard deviation should typically be unknown, while approximation with a normal distribution requires a sufficiently large sample size and the success-failure condition for proportions. Choosing the correct distribution depends on whether the standard deviation is known and the sample size.

Explanation:

Conditions for Using the Standard Deviation Formula and Approximating with a Normal Distribution

For conducting a significance test using the standard deviation formula, certain conditions must be met:

The sample must be randomly selected.If surveying a proportion, we use \( \hat{p} \) for samples and \( p \) for populations.If calculating a sample standard deviation, the population standard deviation should be unknown.The sample size should be sufficiently large if the population distribution is not normal (usually n > 30).

To approximate the sample distribution with a normal distribution, particularly when conducting hypothesis testing:

The sample size must be large enough (typically n > 30).The sample should be randomly selected and should represent the population.For proportions, the sample should meet the success-failure condition where \( np \geq 10 \) and \( n(1-p) \geq 10 \).

The conditions for a hypothesis test often include:

Stating the null and alternative hypotheses.Deciding on a significance level (e.g., \( \alpha = 0.05 \)).Knowing whether population parameters are known, which determines the choice of test statistic.Finding the p-value and comparing it with the significance level to make a decision.

Examples of Hypothesis Testing with Different Conditions

If you know the population standard deviation, you might use the z-distribution for hypothesis testing.If the population standard deviation is unknown but the sample size is large, the t-distribution might be the appropriate choice.The F-statistic is used when comparing two variances, such as two standard deviations of test scores.

To find two positive numbers a and b whose sum is 88 and whose product is maximized, we need to use the concept of quadratic equations. Let's assume a as x and b as 88-x. The product of the two numbers can be expressed as the quadratic equation P(x) = x(88-x). To maximize the product, we need to find the maximum value of P(x). We can use calculus to find the maximum value by taking the derivative of P(x) and setting it equal to zero. Solving that equation will give us the value of x, and plugging it back into P(x) will give us the maximum product.

Let's go through the steps:

Write the quadratic equation: P(x) = x(88-x).Take the derivative of P(x) and set it equal to zero: P'(x) = 88-2x = 0.Solve for x: x = 44.Plug x back into P(x) to find the maximum product: P(44) = 44(88-44) = 1936.

So, the two positive numbers a and b are 44 and 88-44, which is 44 as well. Their sum is 88 and their product is maximized at 1936.

In an upcoming race, the top 3 finishers will be recognized with the same award. Ryan is one of 12 people entered in the race.

If all racers are equal in skill, what is the probability that Ryan will be one of the top 3 racers?

Answers

Since top 3 racers recognized with the same award, answer is 3/12 or 1/4 or .25

Answer:  The required probability is 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that in an upcoming race, the top 3 finishers will be recognized with the same award and Ryan is one of 12 people entered in the race.

We are to find the probability that Ryan will be one of the top 3 racers, if all racers are equal in skills.

Let S denote the sample space of the experiment for selecting a racer and A denote the event of selecting the top 3 finishers.

Then, according to the given information, we have

n(S) = 12   and    n(A) = 3.

So, the probability of event A is given by

[tex]P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}\times100\%=25\%.[/tex]

Thus, the required probability is 25%.
