In a survey of women in a certain country the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches answer the followinv questions about the specified normal distribution

Answers

Answer 1

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches.  Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution.  (a) What height represents the 99th percentile?  (b) What height represents the first quartile?  (Round to two decimal places as needed)

Solution :

Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.

Given :

X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches

Let,

[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal

a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a

The point a is such that,

[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]

From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]

  [tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]

     = 6.536903 + 62.9

     = 69.436903

     = 69.5 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.

b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.

It is given by :

[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]

[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]

From the standard normal table,

[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]

∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]

[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]

  = 1.895345 + 62.9

   = 64.795345

   = 64.8 (rounding off)

Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

Write the exponential function that passes through (-1, 27), (0, 9), (1, 3).​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we see, for x=-1 we get 3³

x=0 we get 3²

x=1 we get 3¹

so the function is definitely a 3 to the power of x version.

but we need to adapt the exponent a bit and correct x, so that at least for these 3 values of x the result is "running backwards".

the easiest way : 2-x as exponent.

it fits.

for x=-1 we get 2 - -1 = 3 as exponent.

for x=0 we get 2-0 = 2 as exponent.

for x=1 we get 2-1 = 1 as exponent.

so, the exponential function passing through these 3 points is

[tex]f(x) = {3}^{2 - x} [/tex]

what is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-8,8) and (4,-1)​

Answers

Answer:

y = (-3/4)x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of this line.  Note how the first x-coordinate (-8) becomes 4, a jump of 12, and how the first y-coordinate (8) becomes -1, a decrease of 9.  Then the slope is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = -9/12 = m = -3/4

Find the y-intercept from this data using the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b becomes  8 = (-3/4)(-8) + b when x = -8, y = 8 and m = -3/4.

Solving this equation for b, we get:

                                     8 = 6 + b, so that b must be 2.

The desired equation is y = (-3/4)x + 2.

y = 1 over 3.x − 1

y = 3x − 1

y = −x + 1 over 3.

y = 3x + 1

Answers

Answer:

y=3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we are going to base the answer off of the y=mx+b form where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept.

we know that b must be -1 because the line hits the y-axis when y is -1

this now leaves us with either the first or second choice

we then choose two points to find the slope. I am using (0,-1) and (1,2). If you count the boxes, the y-value increases by 3 as the x-value increases by 1. So the slope is 3/1 or 3.

so then we know the answer is y=3x-1

We need to make [tex]R_2[/tex] the subject of the formula [tex]R_T=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}[/tex]

First remove the denominator by multiplying both sides by the binomial [tex](R_1+R_2)[/tex]

[tex]R_T\times (R_1+R_2)=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}\times(R_1+R_2)\\\\R_TR_1+R_TR_2=R_1R_2[/tex]

Factor out [tex]R_2[/tex] from the LHS

[tex]R_2(R_1-R_T)=R_TR_1[/tex]

PLEASE HELP PLEASE!!!! AB←→||CD←→ . Find the measure of ∠BFG.

Answers

Answer:

BFG = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are alternate interior angles and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel

3x+15 = 5x-5

Subtract 3x from each side

3x+15-3x = 5x-5-3x

15 = 2x-5

Add 5 to each side

15+5 = 2x-5+5

20 = 2x

Divide by 2

20/2 = 2x/2

10 =x

We know that AFG + BFG = 180 since it forms a straight line

AFG + BFG = 180

3x+15 + BFG = 180

3(10) + 15  + BFG = 180

30+15 + BFG = 180

45 + BFG = 180

BFG = 180-45

BFG = 135

Answer:

<BFG = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

They are the same angle, so they will be equal to eachother.

3x + 15 = 5x - 5

-3x          -3x

----------------------

     15   = 2x - 5

     +5           +5

-----------------------

     20 = 2x

     -----   ----

       2      2

      10 = x
