Differences between larva of silkworm and larva of bee​

Mathematics

Fed [463]2 years ago

Answer:

Answer: The larvae of a silk moth secrete the silk thread which is used to make clothes. Honey bees produce and store honey which is nutritious food. Silkworm is a creamy white colored insect which is about 2-3 cm long and shining in nature.

Bee larvae have been shown to be an excellent food source for rearing insects

Silk worm larvae is used in extracting silk and thus help in making clothes.

Bee larvae is used in pest control.

The silkworms feed solely on large amounts of leaves from the mulberry tree for around 30-40 days

The majority of honey bee larvae eat honey, but larvae that are chosen to become future queens will be fed with royal jelly.

The time for a professor to grade a student's homework in statistics is normally distributed with a mean of 12.6 minutes and a s
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

37.23% probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 12.6, \sigma = 2.5

What is the probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 12 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8. So

X = 12

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{12 - 12.6}{2.5}

Z = -0.24

Z = -0.24 has a pvalue of 0.4052

X = 8

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{8 - 12.6}{2.5}

Z = -1.84

Z = -1.84 has a pvalue of 0.0329

0.4052 - 0.0329 = 0.3723

37.23% probability that randomly selected homework will require between 8 and 12 minutes to grade

Sheila places a 54 square inch photo behind a 12-inch-by-12-inch piece of matting.

The are of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length and the width of the shape. First, we determine the dimensions of this figure. We do as follows:

Width = 12 - 2x - 2x = 12 - 4x
Length = 12 - x - x = 12 - 2x

Area = (Length)(Width)
Area = (12 - 2x )(12-2x)

I believe the answer would be 18,618 

25,600/11= 2,327
2327*8= 18,618

Yuson must complete 210 min of community service. She does 30 min each day. Which linear equation represents the number of minut
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

y=-30x+210

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of days

y ----> the number of minutes Yuson has left

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept (initial value)

In this problem we have

The slope is equal to

m=-30\frac{min}{day} ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

b=210\ min ----> initial value

substitute the values

y=-30x+210

Linda commutes a total of 54 miles to and from work every day. She needs a new car, and good gas mileage is important to her. Sh
Alchen [17]
The answer is 1 gallon.

Miles per gallon(mpg) is computed by dividing the distance traveled by the how many gallons used. So you can derive a formula for how many gallons you would use given the mpg. You will end up with:

gallon =  \frac{miles travelled}{miles per gallon}

The problem asks for how many gallons of gas she will safe in a five-day work work week. So first you need to compute how many miles that would be. 

54 miles/day x 5days =  270 miles

So in a five day work week, she will travel 270 miles.

Now to see how much gas she will save, compute how many gallons she will use up for each car, given the mpg of each and find the difference. 

First model:30 mpg

gallons = \frac{270miles}{30mpg}
gallons = 9g
 
This means that with the first model, she will have used up 9 gallons in a 5-day work week.

Second model: 27 mpg
g = \frac{270mi}{27mi/g}
g = 10g

This means that with the second model, she will have used up 10g in a 5-day work week. 

Now for the last bit. How much will she save? You can get that by getting the difference of how many gallons each car would have used up.

10gallons - 9gallons = 1g

So she would have saved 1 gallon of gas if she buys the first car instead of the second.
