Answer:

The distance from the star to the second checkpoint is 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that

When you get to the second checkpoint, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish

The distance from the star to the second checkpoint is equal to the total distance multiplied by 1/4

The total distance is 40 miles ( see the attached figure)

The distance from the star to the second checkpoint is

$\frac{1}{4}(40)=10\ miles$

<em>Find out the distance from the start to the first checkpoint</em>

Multiply the distance from the star to the second checkpoint by 2/5

$\frac{2}{5}(10)=4\ miles$

The diagram shows a logo made from three circles

ratelena [41]

Answer:

Use the formula π*(r^2) where r is radius

Area of big circle, all 3=314.1592654 (approximately) and this is =100%

Area of middle circle=153.93804

Area of small circle=78.53981634

Percentage of middle circle with small circle = (153.93804/314.1592654)*100= 48.999999999999 approx= 49%

Percentage of small circle alone = (78.53981634/314.1592654)*100

= 25%

So 51%= big circle alone

And 51%+25%= 76%

100%-76%=24%

A given set of values is found to be a normal distribution with a mean of 140 and a standard deviation of 18.0. Find the value t

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

The key is transforming values from this distribution to a z-score range and finding the corresponding value using a z-score table.

We are looking for a value x which attains a critical z-score that corresponds to the (100-45)%=55-th percentile:

$z_{0.55} = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{x-140}{18}\implies x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140$

The critical z value (from z-score table, online) is: -0.12, so:

$x = 18\cdot z_{0.55}+140=18\cdot(-0.12)+140\approx137.84$

The value that is greater than 45% of the data values is approximately 137.84.

Assuminhg the ark has a shoe-box (cuboid) shape it´s volume would be:

$V_{cuboid}=lenght*width*height$

We have this three measurements ( $l=300cubits;w=50cubits;h=30cubits)$ ) and it can be as simple as replacing them in the equation and solving but they are in all in $cubits$ . We will convert them to $ft$ because the problem requires the answer in $ft^{3}$ . In order to do this we will use the given equivalences:
