The salt content in snack bags of pretzels is Normally distributed, with a mean of 180 mg and a standard deviation of 15 mg. Eighty four percent of bags have a salt content higher than which value?


Find the z-table here.


165.2 mg

179.2 mg

187.0 mg

194.9 mg

I think its (A), 165.2mg

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Yes you are correct. The answer is choice A

============================================================

Explanation:

If you used the z-table, you should find that P(Z < 1) = 0.84 approximately.

So by symmetry, P(Z > -1) = 0.84 approximately as well.

We'll convert the z score z = -1 into its corresponding x score

z = (x-mu)/sigma

-1 = (x-180)/15

-15 = x-180

x-180 = -15

x = -15+180

x = 165

We don't land on any of the answer choices listed, but we get fairly close to 165.2, which is choice A. So you are correct.

I have a feeling that the table you have is probably more accurate than the one I'm using, so it's possible that you'd land exactly on 165.2 when following the steps above.

There are two possible equations, but neither matches the the choices you listed. The choices seem to have several typographical errors.

Point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3) is y - 7 =(-10/9)(x + 4).

How to estimate the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3)?

Slope

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

= (-3 - 7) / (5 - (-4))

= -10/9

The point-slope equation for the line of slope -(10/9) that passes through the point (5, -3).

y + 3 = (-10/9)(x - 5)

Point slope equation for the line of slope -(10/9) that passes through the point (-4, 7)

Point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-4, 7) and (5,-3) is y - 7 = (-10/9)(x + 4).

Therefore, the correct answer is y - 7 = (-10/9)(x + 4).

15 times a certain number plus 5 times the same number is 80 what is the number​

Answers

x = 4

Every step shown. Once you become used to doing this you will almost be able to do the basic one's in your head without writing much down.

Explanation:

Let the unknown value be  

x

Converting the words into numbers:

First part: "15 times a certain number"  → 15 x

Second part: "plus 5 times the same number" → 15 x + 5 x

The last part: " is 80" ->  15x + 5 x = 80

We are counting  x ' s . 15 of them plus another 5 of them gives a total of 20.

So 15 x + 5 x = 20 x = 80

Divide both sides by 20

20 x ÷ 20 = 80÷ 20

20/20x=80/20

Independent variable is the height and dependent variable is weight so you will have a quadratic such as weight = number•height^2 + number•height + number. All you need is to figure out first number and second number and third number (usually denoted by a,b,c) it will be a very tedious calculation by hand which deals with sum of the weight, sum of the weight squared, sum of weight•weight, number of weights, and sum of heights etc etc with the same pattern. It should be done by a calculator. At the end the Weight = a height^2 + b height + c (with a b c results displayed on the calculator) and then Answer = a*5.8^2 + b*5.8 + c

daughters and five sons and the youngest wife had two sons. Two
of the remaining wives had one son each. If the ratio of children of
5th wife was 1:3 with the children of other wives. How many
children does Tandin have

Answers

Answer:

Tandin has 16 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total of children:

1 + 1 = 2(two of the  remaining wives)

So

8 + 2 + 2 = 12

If the ratio of children of  5th wife was 1:3 with the children of other wives.

Thus the 5th wife has 12/3 = 4 children.

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum for f (x )equals x cubed minus 2 x squared minus 4 x plus 2 on the interval 0 less or equal than x less or equal than 3.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

maximum: 2minimum: -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The extrema will be at the ends of the interval or at a critical point within the interval.

The derivative of the function is ...

  f'(x) = 3x² -4x -4 = (x -2)(3x +2)

It is zero at x=-2/3 and at x=2. Only the latter critical point is in the interval. Since the leading coefficient of this cubic is positive, the right-most critical point is a local minimum. The coordinates of interest in this interval are ...

  f(0) = 2

  f(2) = ((2 -2)(2) -4)(2) +2 = -8 +2 = -6

  f(3) = ((3 -2)(3) -4)(3) +2 = -3 +2 = -1

The absolute maximum on the interval is f(0) = 2.

The absolute minimum on the interval is f(2) = -6.

the value of RQS.

Answers

Answer:

Angle PQS will be the complement of half of angle PSQ, so is ...

  ∠PQS = 90° -109/2° = 35.5°

Angle RQS is the sum of angles RQP and PQS:

  ∠RQS = 66° +35.5° = 101.5°

The speed of the light is approximately 3x10^14 centimeters per second.how much will it take light to Tavel 9x10^14 centimeters

Answers

Answer:

3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's calculate the approximate speed of light.

3 · 10^14 = 3 · 100,000,000,000,000

              = 300,000,000,000,000

Approximately, light travels 300,000,000,000,000 centimeters per second.

Now, let's simplify 9x10^14.

9 · 10^14 = 9 · 100,000,000,000,000

              = 900,000,000,000,000

To find out how many seconds light takes to travel 900,000,000,000,000 centimeters, we have to divide this number by 300,000,000,000,000, the approximate speed of light.

900,000,000,000,000/300,000,000,000,000 = 3

Therefore, it will take 3 seconds for light to travel 900,000,000,000,000 centimeters.

It will take 3 seconds to cover the distance of 9×10¹⁴ cm.

What is scientific notation?

We use the scientific notation of numbers to write very large numbers in compact form.

In the scientific form, we write a number in the form of base×10ⁿ.

Where 0 ≤ base < 10 and n can be any rational number.

Given the speed of light s approximately 3×10¹⁴ cm/sec.

∴ It will take (9×10¹⁴/3×10¹⁴) = 3 seconds.

We know that exponents are added when the same base is multiplied and exponents are subtracted when the same base or integral multiple of the same base is divided.

Which type of triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry?

Answers

Answer:

D. isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Ed22

A triangle with at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry is isosceles triangle, option D is correct.

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

An isosceles triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry.

This is because an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles.

If we draw a perpendicular bisector of the base (the side that is not congruent), it will bisect the base and the angle opposite to the base.

This means that the triangle is symmetric with respect to this line of reflection, which is the line of symmetry.

Therefore, the correct answer is isosceles triangle.
