The heights of horses who compete in the Melbourne Derby are normally distributed with a mean of 66 inches and a standard deviation of 3 inches (a) If a horse is randomly selected from this race, what height would you expect it to be? (b) What percentage of horses who compete in the Melbourne Derby have heights between 60 and 72 inches? (c) In a particular year there are 25 horses running in the Melbourne Derby. How many of these would you expect to have a height of less than 63 inches?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distribution = Normal

Mean(m) = 66

Standard deviation (σ) = 3 inches

A.) If horse is randomly selected from the race, Expected height = mean of the distribution = 66

B.) % horses with height between 60 and 72

Using the relation :

X = 60 ; 72

Z = (x - mean) σ

Z = (60 - 66) / 3

Z = - 6/3

Z = - 2

P(Z < - 2) = 0.0228 (using table)

Z = (72 - 66) / 3

Z = 6/3

Z = 2

P(Z < 2) = 0.9772 (using table)

P(score being between 60 and 72):

0.9772 - 0.0228= 0.9544

C) number of samples = 25

Height less than 63 inches :

what is addition property

Answers

Answer:

When we add two or more whole numbers, their sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends. The sum of both 2 + 4 and 4 + 2 is 6. That means, we can add whole numbers in any order. When three or more numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the grouping of the addends.

Step-by-step explanation:

there

There are four mathematical properties which involve addition. The properties are the commutative, associative, identity and distributive properties.

Commutative Property: When two numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends.

For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4

To remember the commutative property, it might be helpful to think about the word commute which means to switch places between home and work (or home and school). In the example above, you can see the 4 and the 2 commuting or switching places.

Associative Property: When three or more numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the grouping of the addends.

For example (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)

To remember the associative property, it might be helpful to think about the word associate, which as a verb means to interact with a group (maybe you associate with a certain group of friends!). The parentheses are grouping operators, that is, they form groups of numbers and operations. You can see in the example above, the 3 can associate with either the 2 or the 4, but the value of each side is still a total of 9.

Identity Property: The sum of any number and zero is the original number.

For example 5 + 0 = 5.

To remember the identity property, it might be helpful to think of it as a question and answer: What number can I add so that the value is not changed? Zero. In the example above, the 5 gets to keep its identity because adding zero does not change its value.

Distributive Property: The sum of two numbers times a third number is equal to the sum of each addend times the third number.

For example 4 * (6 + 3) = 4*6 + 4*3

The distributive property is the only property that combines multiplication and addition. That makes it very important!

To find:

The solution of each equation from the given solutions.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]6(0.5x-1.5)+2x=-9-(x+6)[/tex]

Using distributive property, we get

[tex]3x-9+2x=-9-x-6[/tex]

[tex]5x-9=-15-x[/tex]

Isolate variable terms.

[tex]5x+x=-15+9[/tex]

[tex]6x=-6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6.

[tex]x=-1[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]4(0.5x-2)+3x=-14-(x+6)[/tex]

The graphs which represents someone driving away from their house and having to stop for a stoplight at the corner is graph (IV)

What is graph?

A graph is a line straight or curved that shows relation between two quantities out of which one varies as a result of change in other.

To make it clear let us consider we have two variables x and y where,

y=2x

The variable that is made to alter or change is called the independent variable. Here in our case x is an independent variable. Another variable that varies as a result of the change in the independent variable is called the dependent variable.

Here  y  is the dependent variable whose value changes with change in the value of  x.

As, from the situation someone driving away from their house then the distance will increase which is shown as the rising line of the graph.

Now,  stop for a stoplight at the corner then to stop the car the speed should be decrease which tends to zero which is shown by the down line in the graph.

Hence, the  graphs which represents someone driving away from their house and having to stop for a stoplight at the corner is graph (IV)

Which two points on the number line are opposites? A number line going from negative 2 to positive 2 in increments of 1. There are 4 equal spaces between each number. Point A is 1 mark to the left of negative 1. Point B is half-way between negative 1 and 0. Point C is half-way between 0 and 1. Point D is half-way between 1 and 2.

Answers

Answer:

Points B and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided I have made a visual representation of the number line in the attached picture. Each of these points has a numerical value associated with it. Which would be the following ...

Point A = -2 ... since it is one position left of -1 which is -2 since each mark is a difference of 1 and to the left is a negative value.Point B = -0.5 ... since half-way between -1 and 0 is half of -1 which is -0.5Point C = 0.5 ...since half-way between 0 and 1 is basically half of 1 which is 0.5Point D = 1.5 ... since half-way between 1 and 2 is exactly that 1.5

Therefore based on the numerical value of these points the two that are opposites are point B and C. They both have a value of 0.5 on each end of the number line, one being negative while the other is a positive, thus opposites.

b. a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope

c. The graph consists of three straight lines attached end to end, with the first segment being an inclined positively sloped graph, the second segment is an horizontal line while the third segment is a gentle positively sloped straight line

Step-by-step explanation:

a. A continuous graph

Given that the rain gauge is a digital rain gauge, the values transmitted to the indoor display are those collected by the outdoor sensor, we have that the output to the transmitter can be any value within a possible and finite range of values, therefore the graph is continuous

b. Whereby it rained at a constant rate of 0.1 inch per hour over 24-hour period, we have;

i) Whereby the graph is the level of water in the rain gauge over a given period of time, the shape of the graph will be a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope of 0.1 the domain will be from 0 to 24 hours, while the range will be from 0 to 2.4 inches

c) i) Given that i) the rain falls at a constant rate of 0.1 inch per hour for 6 hours, and ii) over the next 6 hours it stops raining, after which iii) it rained 0.2 inch for the next 12 hours, we have;

i) In the first part The graph will be a straight line graph with a gentle positive slope of 0.1, up to the point (6, 0.6)

ii) When the rain stops for 6 hours, from the point (6, 0.6) to the point (12, 0.12) the graph will be an horizontal line

iii) From the point (12, 0.12) to the point (24, 0.24), is represented on the graph by a straight  line with a gentle positive slope of 0.2.

The rhombus QRST is made of two congruent isosceles triangles. Given angle QRS = 34, what is the measure of angle S?

Answers

Answer:

146

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that this is a rhombus, we know that opposite angles must be equal to each other. This means that angle QTS is equal to angle QRS. Therefore angle QTS also equals 34.

Now, we also know that all the interior angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360. We can subtract 360-34-34=292.

Now we know that the remaining two angles S and Q need to add up to 292. We also know that they are equal because they are opposite angles. Therefore, we can solve the equation 292÷2=146. Each of these angles is 146. So the measure of angle S is 146.

The measure angle of S is 146 .

A rhombus is a special case of the parallelogram and is a quadrilateral with four equal sides. In a rhombus, the opposite sides are parallel and the opposite angles are equal. Also, all the sides of the rhombus are equal in length and the diagonals bisect each other at right angles. The rhombus is also known as a diamond.

By symmetry ;

This means that m∠QTS is equal to m∠QRS. Therefore ∠QTS is also equals 34.

We also know that The common property for all the above four-sided shapes is the sum of interior angles is always equal to 360 degrees. For a regular quadrilateral such as square, each interior angle will be equal to: 360/4 = 90 degrees.

Now we know that the remaining two angles S and Q need to add up to 292.

= 360 -34 -34= 292

We also know that they are equal because they are opposite angles.

Therefore, we can solve the equation,

[tex]\frac{sum of two opposite angle}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{292}{2}[/tex] = 146

Each of these angles is 146.

So the measure of angle S is 146.

Answers

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply:

9 * 5 = x * 18

Simplifying

9 * 5 = x * 18

Multiply 9 * 5

45 = x * 18

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

45 = 18x

Solving

45 = 18x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-18x' to each side of the equation.

45 + -18x = 18x + -18x

Combine like terms: 18x + -18x = 0

45 + -18x = 0

Add '-45' to each side of the equation.

45 + -45 + -18x = 0 + -45

Combine like terms: 45 + -45 = 0

0 + -18x = 0 + -45

-18x = 0 + -45

Combine like terms: 0 + -45 = -45

-18x = -45

Divide each side by '-18'.

x = 2.5

Simplifying

x = 2.5
