Every time you have your cholesterol measured, the measurement may be slightly different due to random fluctuations and measurement error. Suppose that for you, the population of possible cholesterol measurements if you are healthy has a mean of 190 and a standard deviation of 10. Further, suppose you know you should get concerned if your measurement ever gets up to the 97th percentile. What level of cholesterol does that represent?

Answer:

a i

[tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

a ii

[tex]P(X  > 195 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

a iii

[tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.3829  [/tex]

b

[tex]x =  208.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The mean is  [tex]\mu =  190[/tex]

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma  =  10[/tex]

   

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{185 - 190 }{10 }   )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  \ of  \  X)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  P(Z< -0.5)[/tex]

From the z-table the p value  of  (Z< -0.5) is

    [tex]P(Z< -0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X > 195 ) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{195 - 190 }{10 }   )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X  >  195 ) =  P(Z > 0.5)[/tex]

From the z-table the p value  of  (Z > 0.5) is

    [tex]P(Z > 0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  > 195 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) =  P( \frac{185 - 190 }{10 } <  \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } <  \frac{195 - 190 }{10 } )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) =  P(-0.5 < Z > 0.5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = P(Z  <  0.5 ) -  P(Z <  -0.5) [/tex]

From the z-table the p value  (Z <  0.5) and  (Z <  -0.5) is  

    [tex]P(Z < 0.5) =  0.6915 [/tex]

and  

   [tex]P(Z < - 0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.6915 -  0.3085 [/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.3829  [/tex]

Generally the level of cholesterol the 97th percentile represents  is mathematically evaluated as

    [tex]P(X < x ) =  0.97[/tex]

=> [tex]P(X < x ) = P(\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }  <  \frac{x - 190}{10 }  ) = 0.97[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X < x ) = P(Z <  \frac{x - 190}{10 }  ) = 0.97[/tex]

From the z-table  the z-score for  0.97  is  

      [tex]z-score =  1.88[/tex]

=>

  [tex]\frac{x - 190}{10 } =  1.88[/tex]

=>[tex]x =  208.8[/tex]

Your favorite dog groomer charges according to your dog's weight. If your dog is 15 pounds and under, the groomer
charges $35. If your dog is between 15 and 40 pounds, she charges $40. If your dog is over 40 pounds, she charges $40,
plus an additional $2 for each pound.
a. Write a piecewise function that describes what your dog groomer charges.
b. Graph the function.

Answer:

hope the pics below helps!!

Plz mark brainliest :DD

The groomer charges is an illustration of a piece-wise function, where different functions are used to handle different inputs.

The piece-wise function is:

[tex]f(x) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}35,&x \le 15\\40, &15 < x \le 40\\2x - 40,&x > 40\end{array}\right[/tex]

Let:

[tex]x \to[/tex] weight of dog

[tex]y \to[/tex] charges

Dogs that weigh 15 pounds or under

This means that: [tex]x \le 15[/tex]

And the charges is [tex]y = 35[/tex]

Dogs that weigh between 15 and 40 pounds

This means that: [tex]15 < x \le 40[/tex]

And the charges is [tex]y = 40[/tex]

Dogs that weigh over 40 pounds

This means that: [tex]x > 40[/tex]

And the charges is [tex]y = 40 + (x - 40) \times 2[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y = 40 + 2x - 80[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]y = 2x +40- 80[/tex]

[tex]y = 2x - 40[/tex]

So, the piece-wise function is:

[tex]f(x) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}35,&x \le 15\\40, &15 < x \le 40\\2x - 40,&x > 40\end{array}\right[/tex]

O (11,44)

O (4,44)

O (4,15)

Help

Answers

Answer:

Point of the flower garden  R ( 11, 44 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call   P (  3, 14 ) The center of the herb garden, and Q ( 7 , 29 ) the birdbath point

Differences in coordinates of these two points are:

x axis        7 - 3   = 4

y axis     29 - 14  = 15

Then the point Q ( x , y ) will be at:  Q ( 11, 44)

x axis    x = 11 because    7 + 4 = 11 means that the coordinate 7 is just halfway way between coordinates (x)  3 and 11  ( 4 above 3, and 4 below 11)

Reasoning the same way we conclude y = 44 in this case 29 is just halfway between coordinates  (y) 14 and 44 ( 15 above 14 and 15 below 44)

We can probe getting distance d₁  between P and Q  and d₂ distance between Q and R as:

d₁ = √ (7-3)² + ( 29-14)²

d₁ = √ 16 + 225

d₂ = √ (11 - 7)² +  ( 44 - 29)²

d₂ = √ 16 + 225

A metal bar has the D of 7.9 g/mL. If the volume of the bar is 500mL, what is the mass in kg?​

Answers

The density of a substance is the mass per unit volume. The mass of the metal bar is 3.95 kg.

What is density?

The density of a substance is the mass per unit volume.

It can be given as,

[tex]\rho=\dfrac{m}{v}[/tex]

Here, [tex]m[/tex] is the mass of the substance and [tex]v[/tex] is the volume of hte substance.

Given information

A metal bar has the D of 7.9 g/mL .

Volume of the bar is 500 mili liter.

Suppose the mass of the metal bar is [tex]m[/tex] grams. Thus put the values in the above formula as,

[tex]\rho=\dfrac{m}{v}\\7.9=\dfrac{m}{500}\\[/tex]

Solve for m,

[tex]m=500\times7.9\\m=3950[/tex]

Thus the mass of the metal bar is 3950 grams. Convert it into the kg as divide by 1000. Thus,

[tex]m=\dfrac{3950}{1000}\\m=3.950[/tex]

Hence the mass of the metal bar is 3.95 kg.

C. Most of the hurricane sizes differ from the average by about 2 or 3.



D. Most of the hurricane sized differ from the average by about 1 or 2.*

Answers

Answer:

a) mean = 0.2

variance = 0.0391

standard deviation = 0.198

b) The average hurricane is aprox. category 2.*  (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation, let us for a table for the data:

level            x

1             0.411

2            0.278

3            0.221

4            0.080

5            0.010

Calculating the mean ([tex]\bar{x}[/tex])

[tex]\bar{x} = \frac{x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4 + x_5}{n}\\\\\bar{x} = \frac{0.411 + 0.278 + 0.221 + 0.080 + 0.010}{5}\\\bar{x} = \frac{1}{5}\\ \bar{x} = 0.2[/tex]

∴Mean = 0.2

level            x         [tex]x- \bar{x}[/tex]         [tex](x - \bar{x})^2[/tex]  

1             0.411         0.211         0.0445  

2            0.278       0.078        0.0608

3            0.221        0.021         0.000441    

4            0.080        -0.12         0.0144

5            0.010         -0.19         0.0361

                                              [tex]\sum(x - \bar{x})^2 = 0.1562[/tex]

[tex]variance = \frac{\sum(x - \bar{x})^2}{n-1} \\variance = \frac{0.1562}{4} \\variance = 0.0391[/tex]

standard deviation = √(variance)

Standard deviation = √(0.0391)

Standard deviation = 0.198

Susan borrows $4500 from the bank to purchase new furniture. The bank finances for 5 years at 8% simple interest. How much will Susan pay for the furniture. (I = Prt) (A = I + P) PLS HELP ME I HAVE TO TURN THIS IN SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

$6300

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P(1 + rt)

   A = Total Accrued Amount (principal + interest)

   P = Principal Amount

   I = Interest Amount

   r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100

   t = Time Period involved in months or years

P = $4500

t = 5 years

r = 8% = .08

A = P(1 + rt)

A = 4500 ( 1 + (.08*5))

A = 4500 ( 1 + .4)

A = 4500 (1.4)

A = $6300

Susan will pay $6300 for the furniture

________________________________________________________

The equation I used is the same as what you were given:

I = Prt

A = I + P   Re-write as I = A - P

So you plug in A - P for I:

A - P = Prt      Add P to each side

A - P + P = Prt + P

A = Prt + P     Pull P out

A = P(rt + 1)   Re-arrange

A = P(1 + rt)

Answer:

A. [tex]C(x,y) = (3,-1)[/tex], [tex]r = 2[/tex], x-Intercepts: [tex]x = 3\pm\sqrt{3}[/tex], y-Intercepts: none.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x^{2}+y^{2}-6\cdot x + 2\cdot y + 6 = 0[/tex] be the general equation of the circle, we must transform the expression into standard form to determine its center, radius and intercepts. The procedure is shown below:

1)  [tex]x^{2}+y^{2}-6\cdot x + 2\cdot y + 6 = 0[/tex] Given.

2) [tex](x^{2}-6\cdot x)+(y^{2}+2\cdot y) +6= 0[/tex] Commutative and associative properties.

3) [tex](x^{2}-6\cdot x)+(y^{2}+2\cdot y) + 6 + 3 + 1 = 3 + 1[/tex] Compatibility with addition.

4) [tex](x^{2}-6\cdot x +9)+(y^{2}+2\cdot y +1) = 4[/tex] Definition of addition/Commutative and associative properties.

5) [tex](x-3)^{2} + (y+1)^{2} = 4[/tex] Perfect square trinomial/Result.

The equation of the circle centered in (h, k) in standard form is defined as:

[tex](x -h)^{2} + (y-k)^{2} = r^{2}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Where:

[tex]h[/tex], [tex]k[/tex] - Coordinate of the center of the circle, dimensionless.

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of the circle, dimensionless.

By direct comparison we find that circle is centered in [tex]C(x, y) = (3, -1)[/tex] and has a radius of 2.

Finally, we obtain the intercepts of the given function:

x-Intercepts ([tex]y = 0[/tex])

[tex](x-3)^{2} + (0+1)^{2} = 4[/tex]

[tex]x^{2}-6\cdot x +9+1 = 4[/tex]

[tex]x^{2}-6\cdot x +6=0[/tex]

Roots are found analitically by Quadratic Formula:

[tex]x = 3\pm\sqrt{3}[/tex]

y-Intercepts ([tex]x=0[/tex])

[tex](0-3)^{2}+(y+1)^{2} = 4[/tex]

[tex]9+y^{2}+2\cdot y +1 = 4[/tex]

[tex]y^{2}+2\cdot y +6 = 0[/tex]

Roots are found analitically by Quadratic Formula:

[tex]y = -1\pm i\,\sqrt{5}[/tex]

In a nutshell, there are no y-Intercepts.

We include a graphic including circle, center and x-Intercepts.

Finally, we came to the conclusion that correct answer is A.
