Burger Queen a popular fast food restaurant among college students has undertaken a study to determine the weights of the hamburgers served in its new location in San Marcos, TX. Half pounders should weigh at least 8 ounces. The weight is assumed to be normally distributed. A sample of 500 hamburgers reveals the average precooked weight to be 8.02 ounces, with a standard deviation of .4 ounce.
1. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces?
2. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 0.2422 = 24.22% probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces

2. 0.1056 = 10.56% probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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.

A sample of 500 hamburgers reveals the average precooked weight to be 8.02 ounces, with a standard deviation of .4 ounce.

This means that [tex]\mu = 8.02, \sigma = 0.4[/tex]

1. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 8.02 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 7.76. So

X = 8.02

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{8.02 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5

X = 7.76

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.76 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2578

0.5 - 0.2578 = 0.2422

0.2422 = 24.22% probability that a hamburger selected at random will weigh between 7.76 and 8.02 ounces.

2. What is the probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 7.52. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.52 - 8.02}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1056

0.1056 = 10.56% probability that a hamburger selected at random with less than 7.52 ounces.

What is the area of this?

I need step by step

Answers

Answer:

Driveway Area = 218 square feetGarden Area = 230 square feetTotal Area = 448 square feet

See diagram below.

====================================================

Explanation:

Start at the lower left corner of the entire figure. Move 20 ft directly to the right until reach the end of the driveway at the bottom. Now move 10 ft up so you reach the other side of the driveway (the 26 ft side). In the process of moving 10 ft up, mark a new line segment. I've done so in red in the diagram below.

I've also drawn a green box. The red line and green box form a shape of a flag on a flagpole. The pole being 10 ft tall and the green box (flag) is a 6 by 3 rectangle. The 6 is from 26-20 = 6 and the 3 is from 10-7 = 3. Note how I'm subtracting the opposite side values to help figure out the dimensions of this green box.

The 10 ft by 20 ft portion of the driveway is 10*20 = 200 square feet. The green box adds on another 18 sq ft because 6*3 = 18. In all, we have 200+18 = 218 square feet for the driveway.

-------------------

If you want to know the area of the garden, then we first compute the overall area of everything shown. That's 32*14 = 448 square feet. Subtract off the driveway's area to get 448-218 = 230. Therefore, the garden's area is 230 square feet.

Given that the measure of ∠x is 90°, and the measure of ∠y is 64°, find the measure of ∠z.

Answers

Answer:

26°

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that your figure is a triangle, we should keep in mind that all the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°, always.

So, we have the values of angles x and y as 90° and 64°.

90 + 64 = 154°  ⇒ Add them up.

Now, subtract 154 from 180 to get ∠z.

180 - 154 = 26°

If Siny = x Sin (a+y). Prove that
dy/dx=[Sin²(a+y)]/Sina​

Answers

Answer:

Use Trigonometric formulae to simplify expressions

Step-by-step explanation:

Re-order to group the x and y,

Sin(y) / Sin(a+y) = x

to differentiate apply d/dx to both sides

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex]Sin(y) / Sin(a+y) = [tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex]x

use division rule on left side which will give

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]Cos(y)Sin(a+y) - [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]Cos(a+y)Sin(y) / Sin²(a+y) = 1

Group them so dy/dx is on the left hand side:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / Cos(y)Sin(a+y) - Cos(a+y)Sin(y)

Apply trigonometric sum formula to expand Sin(a+y) and Cos(a+y),

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] =  Sin²(a+y) / Cos(y)[Sin(a)Cos(y) + Cos(a)Sin(y)] - Sin(y)[Cos(a)Cos(y) - Sin(a)Sin(y)]

Simplify it

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / (Cos²(y) + Sin²(y))(Sin(a))

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = Sin²(a+y) / (1)(Sin(a))

What is the surface area of the triangular prism (Look at image)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\Large \boxed{\sf 384 \ m^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area ⇒ area of 2 triangles + area of 3 rectangles

[tex](8 \times 3 \times 0.5 \times 2)+(20 \times 5 \times 2+20 \times 8)=384[/tex]

               Geometric Solids: Prism

For a prism we take into account the following:

[tex]\boxed{\bold{Lateral\ area = (Perimeter \ of \ the \ base) (height)}}[/tex][tex]\boxed{\bold{Total\ area = Lateral\ area + 2 (base\ area)}}[/tex]

Taking into account the above, we first find the lateral area:

In the triangular base, the height divided into 2 small right triangles of Hypotenuse = 5 and Height = 3. By Pythagoras we have this:

3² + base² = 5²

9 + base² = 25

base² = 25 - 9

base² = 16

base = 4

From this we obtain that the bases of the small right triangles measure 4 therefore the triangular base is isosceles where we have:

Equal sides = 5 Uneven side = 8

The perimeter of the triangular base will be the sum of the sides, that is:

Perimeter = 5 + 5 + 8

Perimeter = 18

Since the perimeter of the base of the prism is 18 and the height is 20, we replace in the equation for the lateral area:

Side area = (18) (20)

Lateral Area = 360 m²

Now we find the area of ​​the triangular base with base = 8 and height = 3:

[tex]\bold{Area=\dfrac{(base) (height)}{2} }\\\\\\Area=\dfrac{(8)(3)}{2} \\\\\\Area=\dfrac{24}{2}\\\\\\\boxed{\bold{Area=12}}[/tex]

Since we have that the lateral area is 360m² and the area of ​​the triangular base is 12m², we replace in the equation of the total area:

Total area = 360 + 2 (12)

Total area = 360 + 24

Total area = 384 m²

The total area of ​​the prism will measure 384m²
