Height of 10th grade boys is normally distributed with a mean of 63. 5 in, and a standard deviation

of 2. 9 in.

The area greater than the z-score is the probability that a randomly selected 14-year old boy

exceeds 70 in.

What is the probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in. ?

Use your standard normal table.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0125 = 1.25% probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in.

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.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are, respectively, given by [tex]\mu = 63.5, \sigma = 2.9[/tex].

The probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 70, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{70 - 63.5}{2.9}[/tex]

Z = 2.24

Z = 2.24 has a p-value of 0.9875.

1 - 0.9875 = 0.0125.

0.0125 = 1.25% probability that a randomly selected 10th grade boy exceeds 70 in.

Translated 6 units up(y intercept +6)

Put it.

y=-3(x+4)+6+4y=-3x-12+10y=-3x-2

Answer:

  y = -3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the given line, with slope -3 and y-intercept 4, can be written in slope-intercept form as ...

  y = -3x +4

When the line is translated by (h, k), it can be written as ...

  (y -k) = -3(x -h) +4

__

Here, we want to translate the line -4 in the x-direction and 6 in the y-direction. That is, (h, k) = (-4, 6). Using these values in the above equation, we have ...

  y -6 = -3(x -(-4)) +4

  y = -3x -12 +4 +6 . . . . simplify, add 6

  y = -3x -2

__

The attached graph shows the original line (red) with its y-intercept, and the translated line (green) with that y-intercept moved 4 units left and 6 units up.

The slope of line that passes through the points (1, -6) and (-2, –8) is 2/3.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

y = mx + b

In which the coefficients are described as follows:

• The coefficient m is the slope of the function, representing the rate of change of the function.

• The coefficient b is the y-intercept of the function, representing the value of y when the function crosses the y-axis(x = 0).

Here the points are(1, -6) and (-2, –8) :

and it is to find the equation of line passing through these points :

Now using slope formula to find the slope of line m :

m = (y₂-y₁)/ (x₂-x₁)

m = (-8+6)/(-2-1)

m = -2/-3

m = 2/3

Therefore, the slope of line that passes through the points (1, -6) and (-2, –8) is 2/3.

Amy fills an ice cream cone to the top edge. The diameter of the ice cream cone is 2 inches and its height is 6 inches. Don fills a bowl (V = 5 cubic inches) with ice cream. Amy has how much more ice cream than Don?

Answers

Answer:

1.28 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of Amy's cone

Cone = 1/3πr²hCone = 1/3 x 3.14 x 1² x 6Cone = 2 x 3.14 = 6.28 in³

Volume of Don's bowl

It's given to be 5 in³

Difference

Amy's cone - Don's bowl6.28 - 51.28 in³

Answer:

So obviously in the context of this question you are meant to find the volume. Since Don's bowl already has a given value of 5 cubic inches we will use that same unit when calculating amy's ice cream cone volume.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given that amy has a cone and need to find the volume. The formula for the volume of a cone is (V=πr^2*h/3).

π = pi or 3.14......

r = radius (in this case the opening/ diameter of the ice cream cone is given as 2 inches and the radius is half of diameter so d/2 = r (r=1)

h = height (in this case it is given that height is 6 inches)

Remember all variable units must be kept the same so in this case all units are inches.

Now Plug in and solve V = [tex]3.14*(1)^{2} *\frac{(6)}{3}[/tex]

Remember order of operations / PEMDAS (in this case, do exponent first then just multiply from left to right and at the end divide that number by 3.

V= 6.28 cubic inches (since all our units were inches and we are finding cubic volume of a cone)

Now Amy volume of cone - Don volume of bowl = your answer. 6.28-5 = 1.28 cubic inches
