Many urban zoos are looking at ways to effectively handle animal waste. One zoo has installed a facility that will transform ani

mal waste into electricity. To estimate how many pounds of waste they may have to fuel the new facility they began keeping meticulous records. They discovered that the amount of animal waste they were disposing of daily is approximately Normal with a mean of 348.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 38.2 pounds. Amounts over 350 pounds would generate enough electricity to cover what is needed to for the entire aquarium that day. Approximately what proportion of the days can the zoo expect to obtain enough waste to cover what is needed to run the entire aquarium for the day?
(A) 0.484
(B) 0.499
(C) 0.516
(D) 0.680
(E) 0.950

Answer: The right answer is (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the daily waste amount produced. X is distributed in a way that is close to Normal with an average of 348.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 38.2 pounds.

P(X > 350) = Normalcdf(lower: 350, upper: 1000, mean: 348.5, SD: 38.2) = 0.484.

Zina [3914]

Answer:

Step-by-step breakdown:

The necessary formula for this problem is

6(6+x)=5(5+x+3)

which resolves to

6(6+x)=5(8+x)

leading to

36 + 6x = 40 + 5x, and consequently

x = 4

Thus, DG equals 5 + 4 + 3, resulting in 12

A bouncing ball reaches a height of 27 feet at its first peak, 18 feet at its second peak, and 12 feet at its third peak. Descri
tester [3916]
A geometric sequence models the bounce heights:
Use the formula
A (subscript n) = Ar(n-1)
a = the first-term value
n = the index of the term you want (for the fourth peak, n = 4) 
r = common ratio, found by dividing the second term by the first
Here r = 18/27 = 2/3 because 27×(2/3) = 18, and similarly 18×(2/3) = 12
For the fourth peak n = 4
Compute: 4th term = 27(2/3)^(4-1) = 8
Therefore the height at the fourth peak is 8
