The area of the figure given below is 56.6 units² .

In the question ,

a figure is given

where there is one rectangle and two semicircles .

the length of the rectangle is given as 11 units

and the breadth of the rectangle is = 4 units

we know that the area of the rectangle is = length × breadth

on substituting the values ,

we get

area = 11 × 4

area = 44 units²

the radius of the semicircle = 2 units

the are of the semi circle = (1/2)*π*r²

since there are two semicircle , the area of the two semi circle will be

= 2 * (1/2)πr²

= π*r²

On substituting , the value of radius = 2 ,

we get the area is = 3.14*(2)² = 12.56       using π = 3.14

so the area of the complex figure is = 44 + 12.56 = 56.56

≈ 56.6

Therefore , The area of the figure given below is 56.6 units²  .

The proportion of these banks that had an interest rate less than 2.5 percent is 0.724.

For a normally distributed set of data, given the mean and standard deviation, the probability can be determined by solving the z-score and using the z-table.

First, solve for the z-score using the formula below.

z-score = (x – μ) / σ

where x = individual data value = 2.5

μ = mean = 2.28

σ = standard deviation = 0.37

z-score = (2.5 - 2.28) / 0.37

z-score = 0.22 / 0.37

z-score = 0.5946

To get the proportion, find the probability that corresponds to the z-score in the z-table. (see attached images)

z-score = 0.5946

By interpolating the values,

probability = 0.724

The length of the rectangular pegboard is 80 inches

A rectangle is a polygon with four sides in which two opposite sides are parallel and equal

Since Vince is cutting a rectangular piece of pegboard to use in his garage for organization. The width of the pegboard is 8 inches less than half the length. The perimeter of the pegboard is 224 inches.

Let

Since the width of the pegboard is 8 inches less than half the length, we have that

W = L/2 - 8

Also, since the pegboard is a rectangle, its perimeter, P = 2(L + W)

Now, its perimeter P = 224 inches.

So, 2(L + W) = 224

L + W = 112

Now, substituting the width, W into the equation, we have

L + W = 112

L + L/2 - 8 = 112

L + L/2 = 112 + 8

L + L/2 = 120

3L/2 = 120

L = 120 × 2/3

L = 240/3

L = 80 inches

So, the length of the pegboard is 80 inches

We have the next function

First we need to make h(x)=y

Then we make x=y and y=x

Then we isolate the y

Therefore the inverse function is

Answer:

7/6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The board is 3 and 1/2 feet long, so it is 3+(1/2) feet long.

3 + 1/2 = ?

3/1 + 1/2 = ?

6/2 + 1/2 = ?

(6 + 1)/2 = ?

= 7/2

3 + 1/2 = 7/2

In other words, the board is 7/2 feet long.

Now we have to divide by 3 since Andrea is cutting the board in three pieces.

So:

(7/2)/3       or        (7/2) ÷ 3       or        [tex]\frac{\frac{7}{2}}{3}[/tex]        or     (7/2) × (1/3)

= 7/(2×3)

= 7/6

So we found that each piece (after cutting the board into three pieces) is 7/6 feet long.

The 80th percentile for the number of hours spent studying each day is 7.07 hours.

A data set with a normal distribution has the majority of its values clustered in the middle of the range, while the remainder taper off symmetrically toward either extreme. The term "standard deviation" refers to the degree of dispersion of the data from the mean. Data are grouped around the mean when the standard deviation is low, and are dispersed when the standard deviation is high.

The percentage of scores below a given value is shown by percentiles. They provide information about how a score compares to other scores.

Given Data :

Mean time (u) = 6.4 hour

Standard Deviation = 0.80 hour

It is given that the probability distribution is normal.

The formula for the z-score is z =( x- mean)/standard deviation

For the 80th percentile,  the z value from the z table is 0.842.

We have,

0.842 = (x - 6.4)/0.8

0.842*0.8 = x - 6.4

0.6736 =x - 6.4

x = 0.6736 + 6.4

x = 7.0736

x = 7.07

Hence, the 80th percentile for the number of hours spent studying each day is 7.07 hours.

For a normally distributed set of data, given the mean and standard deviation, the probability can be determined by solving the z-score and using the z-table.

First, solve for the z-score using the formula below.

z-score = (x – μ) / σ

where x = individual data value = 218

μ = mean = 128

σ = standard deviation = 30

z-score = (218 - 128) / 30

z-score = 90 / 30

z-score = 3

Find the probability that corresponds to the z-score in the z-table. (see attached images)

z-score = 3

probability = 0.9987

The sampling distribution for is normal (or approximately normal) and give its mean and standard deviation is  the mean is $28520 and its standard deviation is $762.5.

The notion of mean is crucial in both mathematics and statistics. The mean is the average or most frequent value among a set of numbers. It is a statistical measure used to determine the median and mode of a probability distribution's central tendency. It's also known as an expected value. Sum of all observations divided by the total observations equals the mean. The term "standard deviation" refers to the degree of dispersion of the data from the mean. Data are grouped around the mean when the standard deviation is low, and are more dispersed when the standard deviation is high.  

Given information :

Mean annual income = $28540

Standard Deviation = $5000

Given sample size is n = 43

Sample size doesn't affect the mean, hence the mean remains the same

New mean = $28540

New standard Deviation = Standard Deviation / n^1/2 = 5000/ (43)^1/2

New standard Deviation = 5000/6.5574 = $762.5
