Answer: 0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Henry has collected data to find that the typing speeds for the students in a typing class has a normal distribution.

Mean : \mu=47

Standard deviation : \sigma= 4

Let x be the random variable that represents the typing speeds for the students.

The z-score :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x= 51

z=\dfrac{51-47}{4}=1

Using the standard normal distribution table ,the probability that a randomly selected student has a typing speed of less than 51 words per minute :-

P(x

Hence, the probability that a randomly selected student has a typing speed of less than 51 words per minute = 0.8413

El producto de dos números consecutivos es 552 cuáles son esos números?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer: 23 y 24 ( ó -23 y -24)

Step-by-step explanation:

Dos números consecutivos se escriben como:

n y (n + 1)

done n es un numero entero.

Entonces "El producto de dos números consecutivos es 552"

Se escribe como:

n*(n + 1) = 552

n^2 + n = 552

n^2 + n - 552 = 0

Tenemos una cuadrática, las posibles soluciones son obtenidas con la formula de Bhaskara.

n = \frac{-1 +- \sqrt{1^2 - 4*1*(-552)} }{2} = \frac{-1 +- 47}{2}

Las dos soluciones son.

n = (-1 - 47)/2 = -48/2 = -24

n = (-1 + 47)/2 = 46/2 = 23

Si tomamos la primer solución, n = -24

Entonces los dos números consecutivos son:

n = -24

(n + 1) = -23

Si n = 23 entonces

n + 1 = 24

Lo cual tiene sentido, por que lo único que cambia son los signos, los cuales se cancelarían en la multiplicación.

You launch a water balloon. The function h=-0.08t^2+1.6t+2 models the height h (in feet) of the water balloon after t seconds. W
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The initial height of the balloon is 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the balloon in feet after t seconds is given by the following equation:

h(t) = -0.08t^{2} + 1.6t + 2

What is the initial height of the balloon?

This is h when t = 0, that is, h(0). So

h(0) = -0.08*0^{2} + 1.6*0 + 2 = 2

The initial height of the balloon is 2 feet.

Mari has a part time job. She earns $7 an hour. She makes at most $143.50 a week. What is the greatest number of hours that she
eduard
<span>If Mary earns 7$ an hour, we need to multiplicate 7$ by the number of hours worked for the entire week so we can get the salary per week. And when we want to know how many hours she had worked, we have to "transform" the equation : Salary per week = salary per hours x worked hours Here, we know to informations : salary per hours and salary per week. Worked hours = salary per week / salary per day Worked hours = 143.50 / 7 Worked hours = 20.5 The greatest number of hours thats he works is 20h30.</span>

A principal of $2000 is placed in a savings account at 3% per annum compounded annually. How much is in the account after one ye
natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After one year

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2000(1+0.03/12)^12*1

=2000(1+0.0025)^12

=2000(1.0025)^12

=2000(1.0304)

=$2060.8

After two-years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2060.8(1+0.03/12)^12*2

=2060.8(1+0.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0618)

=$2188.157

After three years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2188.157(1+0.03/12)^12*3

=2188.157(1+0.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0941)

=$2394.063
