The height of seaweed of all plants in a body of water are normally distributed with a mean of 10 cm and a standard deviation of

2 cm. Which length separates the lowest 30% of the means of the plant heights in a sampling distribution of sample size 15 from the highest 70%? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Use the z-table below:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is:

X: height of seaweed.

X~N(μ;σ²)

μ= 10 cm

σ= 2 cm

You have to find the value of the variable X that separates the bottom 0.30 of the distribution from the top 0.70

P(X≤x)= 0.30

P(X≥x)= 0.70

Using the standard normal distribution you have to find the value of Z that separates the bottom 0.30 from the top 0.70 and then using the formula Z= (X-μ)/σ translate the Z value to the corresponding X value.

P(Z≤z)= 0.30

In the body of the table look for the probability of 0.30 and reach the margins to form the Z value. The mean of the distribution is "0" so below 50% of the distribution you'll find negative values.

z= -0.52

Now you have to clear the value of X:

Z= (X-μ)/σ

Z*σ= X-μ

X= (Z*σ)+μ

X= (-0.52*2)+10= 8.96

The value of seaweed height that divides the bottom 30%  from the top 70% is 8.96 cm

I hope this helps!

Valentin [98]
Vertical angles are made by two intersecting lines .and they are always equal
<span>∠C and ​ ∠D are equal.
so  </span><span>−x+26 =2x-10
-3x=-36
x=36/3

Melinda works at a cafe. Each day that she works, she records x, the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y, her
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$26

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the table, the plot and the line of best fit are shown. There we can see the next equation:

y = 0.177x + 25.936

where x is the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y is her total daily wages.

This means that even if she serves no customers (x = 0) she will earn $26  ($25.936 rounded to the nearest dollar)  for each day of work.

Square ABCD was translated using the rule (x, y) → (x – 4, y + 15) to form A'B'C'D'. What are the coordinates of point D in the
alisha [4.7K]
The translation is (x-4, y+15)

This means you would subtract 4 from the X coordinate and add 15 to the y coordinate.
 The original coordinates is (9,-8) 

The first number is X and the 2nd number is Y.

9-4 = 5

-8+15 = 7

The new location would be (5,7)

The answer is B.

The diameter of Circle Q terminates on the circumference of the circle at (0,3) and (0,-4). Write the equation of the circle in
Gnesinka [82]
First, determine the center of the circle by getting the midpoint of the points given for the circumference.
                    midpoint = ((0 + 0)/2, (3 + -4)/2)
                          midpoint (0, -0.5)
Then, we get the radius by determining the distance from either of the circumferential point to the center. 
                        radius = √(0 -  0)² + (3 +4)²  = 7
The equation for the circle would be,
                        x² + (y + 0.5)² = 7²
