Response:

Detailed explanation:

6¼ ft - 8¾ ft = -2½ ft

(-2½ ft)/(1⅔ min) = (5/2 ft)/(5/3 min)

= (5/2)/(5/3) ft/min

= (5/2 × 3/5 ft)/min

= 1.5 ft /min

One sphere has a radius of 5.10 cm; another has a radius of 5.00cm. What is the difference in volume (in cubic centimeters) betw
lawyer [12517]
\bf \textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\
V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
-----\\
r_1=5.10\\
r_2=5
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{V_1}{V_2}\implies \cfrac{\frac{4\pi \cdot 5.10^3}{3}}{\frac{4\pi \cdot 5^3}{3}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\underline{4\pi }\cdot 5.10^3}{\underline{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\underline{3}}{\underline{4\pi }\cdot 5^3}\implies \cfrac{5.10^3}{5^3}\implies \cfrac{132.651}{125}

The heights of 1000 students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of
PIT_PIT [12445]
A. Mean and standard deviation.

The sampling distribution’s mean closely matches the population mean. Since the population mean is 174.5, the sampling distribution’s mean equals this value.

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution is:

            σₓ̄ = σ / √n

Plugging in values:

            σₓ̄ = 6.9 / √25 = 1.38

b. Calculate z-scores for both values:
         
      z = (value - mean) / standard deviation

For 172.5:
     z = (172.5 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.49
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.068

For 175.8:
   z = (175.8 - 174.5) / 1.38 = 0.94
Corresponding probability ≈ 0.83

The difference between these probabilities is 0.762.

Approximately 0.762 × 200 = 152 sample means lie between 172.5 and 175.8.

c. Z-score for 172 cm:

    z = (172 - 174.5) / 1.38 = -1.81
Probability ≈ 0.03

Hence, samples with means below 172 cm equal 0.03 × 200 = 6.
