Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. Draw a graph and find the probability of a bone density test score greater than −1.66.

Answers

Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.9515 = 95.15% probability of a bone density test score greater than −1.66.

The graph is given by option B.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable that has mean represented by [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation represented by [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given as follows:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure X is above(in case the score is positive) or below(in case the score is negative) the mean of the distribution. From the z-score table, the p-value associated with the z-score is found, representing the percentile of the measure X.

In the context of this problem, the mean and the standard deviation of the scores are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 0, \sigma = 1[/tex]

The probability of a bone density test score greater than −1.66 is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = -1.66, hence:

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

Z = (-1.66 - 0)/1

Z = -1.66

Z = -1.66 has a p-value of 0.0485.

1 - 0.0485 = 0.9515, which is the probability.

The graph of the probability is given at the end of the answer, and in the context of this problem, is given by option B.

Answers

Answer:

y= -4x-24

Step-by-step explanation:

change in y/change in x = 0- -24/-6-0 = 24/-6 = -4

gradient is -4

then you put a set of coradinates into the formular y-y=m(x-x)

y - 0= -4 (x+6)

y-0=-4x-24

y=-4x-24

Answer:

The given points are the x- and y-intercepts. It is convenient to write the equation in intercept form:

  x/a +y/b = 1 . . . . . . x-intercept 'a', y-intercept 'b'

Find the area of the shaded portion.

Answers

Answer:

A = 36√3 - 12π

Step-by-step explanation:

Make 2 identical 30-60-90 triangles out of the "wedge"

For each 30-60-90 triangle:

Since the short leg is 6 the long leg is 6√3

short leg is the base and long leg is the height

a = (1/2)bh

a = (1/2)(6)(6√3)

a = 3(6√3)

a = 18√3

Since there are 2 triangles

a = 36√3

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

Then subtract off the area of the 120º sector

a = (120/360)πr^2

a = (1/3)π(6^2)

a  = (1/3)π(36)

a = 12π

Shaded area

a = 36√3 - 12π

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the areas of 2 right-angled triangles minus 1/3 the area of the circle (because the 120 degree segment of the circle is 1/3 of the whole 360 degree circle).

since the answer is asking for a square root, we need to aim for the result of a Pythagoras calculation.

basically, the area of a triangle is

1/2 × b×c × sin(A)

A being the angle between the 2 sides b and c. for any 2 sides of the triangle.

one triangle is from the outmost left point to the center of the circle and up to the 90 degree angle. the other triangle is then down to the second right angle.

we know all angles in such a triangle : 90, 120/2 = 60, 180-90-60 = 30.

remember, the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

so, via the law of sines we can then calculate all sides :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

with the angles being opposite of the sides.

6/sin(30) = baseline/sin(90)

6/0.5 = baseline/1

12 = baseline

top side² + 6² = 12²

top side² = 12² - 6² = 144 - 36 = 108

top side = sqrt(108) = sqrt(36×3) = 6×sqrt(3)

we pick then top side and 6 as the 2 sides, so that we can use sin(90)=1 in the formula.

the area of the 2 triangles is then

6×sqrt(3)×6×sin(90) = 36×sqrt(3)

and the circle segment to be deducted is

pi×r²/3 = pi×6²/3 = pi×36/3 = pi×12

so, the complete answer is

A = 36×sqrt(3) - 12×pi

So it is in the form of f(x) = ax + b.

Lets now check the possible answers : (second answer :) "a curved line", not correct.

(third answer:) "a parabola", this is not a straight line, so not correct.

(fourth answer:) "a wavy line", not a straight line, so not correct.

A ski resort is building two parallel straight ski slopes for children. One of them has a gradient of 1/3. The other ski slope will pass through points (2,-3) and (s,-5). Find the value of s

Answers

Answer: s= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the ski slope can ge used as the slope (literally) of a line equation:

y = mx + b,

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

The first slope would be y = -(1/3)x + b.

The slope is (-1/3) since the ski run is headed downhill.  The second ski slope is assumed to have the same gradient ("two parallel straight ski slopes").

y' = -(1/3)x' + b

We may assume that b is the same for both slopes - they start and end at the same point.

We can find b by using the given point (2,-3):

y' = -(1/3)x' + b

-3 = -(1/3)(2) + b

-3 = -(2/3) + b   [Add -(2/3) to both sides: (-3 + 2/3 = -9/3 + 2/3 = -7/3]

-7/3 = b

b = -(7/3)

The second ski slope, y', thus has the equation

y' = (1/3)x' -(7/3)

We want the value of s in (s, -5).

y' = (1/3)x' -(7/3)

-5 = (1/3)s -(7/3)

(1/3)s = -5 +(7/3)    [-15/3 + 7/3 = -8/3]

(1/3)s = -(8/3)    [Multiply both dies by 3]

s = -(24/3)  

s = -8

The price of Stock A at 9 AM was $12.73. Since then, the price has been increasing at the rate of $0.06 per hour. At noon, the price of Stock B was 13.48. It begins to decrease at the rate of $0.14 per hour. If the stocks continue to increase and decrease at the same rates, in how many hours will the prices of the stocks be the same?

Answers

Answer:

Let the hours when they equalize=h, then we have:

12.25 + .13h=13 - .09h

.13h + .09h=13 - 12.25

.22h=.75 divide both sides by .22

h=.75/.22

h=3 9/22, hours, when they will equalize.

The stock prices will be the same in 3.4 hours.

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

At 9 a.m., the price of Stock A was $12.73. Since then, the price has risen at a pace of $0.06 per hour. Stock B was trading at 13.48 at midday. It starts to fall at a pace of $0.14 each hour.

Let's assume the hours would be h when to equalize,

As per the given question, we can write the equation as:

12.25 + 0.13h = 13 - 0.09h

Rearrange the terms of h in the above equation,

0.13h + 0.09h = 13 - 12.25

Combine the likewise terms in the above equation,

0.22h = 0.75

Divide both sides by 0.22

h = 0.75/0.22

h = 3.4

Thus, the stock prices will be the same in 3.4 hours.
