The owner of a fish market determined that the mean weight for a catfish is 3.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.8 pound. A

madam [21]

Answer: The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is 0.596

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the weights of catfish are assumed to be normally distributed,

we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = weights of catfish.

µ = mean weight

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 3.2 pounds

σ = 0.8 pound

The probability that a randomly selected catfish will weigh between 3 and 5.4 pounds is is expressed as

P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4)

For x = 3

z = (3 - 3.2)/0.8 = - 0.25

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.401

For x = 5.4

z = (5.4 - 3.2)/0.8 = 2.75

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.997

Therefore,.

P(x ≤ 3 ≤ 5.4) = 0.997 - 0.401 = 0.596

A bicycle tire has a radius of 5 inches. To the nearest inch, how far does the tire travel when it makes 8 revolutions?

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

251 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

c = 2πr

c = 2(3.14)(5) = 31.4

31.4 x 8 rev. = 251 inches

How does the graph of mc024-1.jpg compare to the graph of the parent function mc024-2.jpg?

ss7ja [257]

The question is as following:
<span>How does the graph of g(x)=1/x-5+2 compare to the graph of the parent function f(x)=1/x ?
</span>
=================================================
Solution :
========
The given function ⇒ $g(x) = \frac{1}{x-5} +2$

The parent function of the given function ⇒ $f(x)= \frac{1}{x}$

By graphing both of the equations as shown in the attached figure.
So, we can conclude the following
<span>g(x) is shifted 5 units right and 2 units up from f(x).
</span>

So, the correct answer is option 2

Given that Ray E B bisects ∠CEA, which statements must be true? Select three options. m∠CEA = 90° m∠CEF = m∠CEA + m∠BEF m∠CEB =

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

Here is the question attached with.

$m\angle CEA =90 \ (deg)$

$m\angle BEF=135\ (deg)$

$\angle CEF$ is a straight line.

$\angle AEF$ is a right angled triangle.

Options $1,4,5,6$ are correct answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒As $\ ray\ AE$ is ⊥ $FEC$ so it will forms right angled triangle then $m\angle CEA =90\ (deg)$ .

⇒Measure of $\angle BEF =135\ (deg)$ as $\angle BEF =\angle AEB +\angle AEF = (45+90)=135\ (deg)$ as $\angle AEB$ is the bisector of $\angle AEC$ ,meaning that $\angle AEB$ is half of $\angle AEC$ so $\angle AEB = 45\ (deg)$ .

⇒ $\angle CEF$ is a straight line as the angles measure over it is $180\ (deg)$ .

⇒Measure of $\angle AEF = 90\ (deg)$ from linear pair concept.

As $\angle CEA + \angle AEF = 180\ (deg)$ ,plugging the values of $m\angle CEA =90\ (deg)$ we have $\angle AEF = 90\ (deg)$ .

The other two options are false as:

$m\angle CEF=m\angle CEA + m\angle BEF = (90+135)=225$

it is exceeding $180\ (deg)$ whereas $\angle CEF$ is a

straight line.

And $m\angle CEB=2(m\angle CEA)$ is not true.

As $\angle CEA = 90\ (deg)$ and $\angle CEB=45\ (deg)$

So we have total $4$ answers.

The correct options are $1,4,5,6$ .

Wyatt solved the following equation:

NikAS [45]

Answer:

<u>Option B</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is as following:

$x+\frac{1}{2} (6x-4) =6$

Step Work Justification

1 2x + 6x − 4 = 12

2 8x − 4 = 12

3 8x = 16

4 x = 2

Which of the following has all of the correct justifications Wyatt used to solve this equation?

A. Distributive property. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Addition property of equality. 4. Division property of equality.

B. Multiplication property of equality. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Addition property of equality. 4. Division property of equality.

C. Distributive property. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Subtraction property of equality. 4. Division property of equality.

D. Multiplication property of equality. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Subtraction property of equality. 4. Division property of equality

<u />

<u>The answer:</u>

Step Work Justification

multiply both sides by 2

1) 2x + 6x − 4 = 12 ⇒ {Multiplication property of equality}

{Combine like terms}

2) 8x − 4 = 12 ⇒

Adding 4 both sides

3) 8x = 16 ⇒ {Addition property of equality}

divide both sides by 8

4) x = 2 ⇒ {Division property of equality}

The answer is option B

(B) Multiplication property of equality. 2. Combine like terms. 3. Addition property of equality. 4. Division property of equality.
