John's z-score is 0.75.

John's score of 79 on the math test corresponds to a z-score of 0.75 and a percentile of 77.82%.

To get John's z-score, we will use the formula: z = (x - μ) / σ

Data

x = John's score (79)

μ = mean score (73)

σ = standard deviation (8)

z = (79 - 73) / 8

z = 6 / 8

z = 0.75.

To find John's percentile, we can use a standard normal distribution table or calculator.

The percentile represents the percentage of scores that fall below a given value. Using  standard normal distribution table, we find that a z-score of 0.75 equals to percentile of 77.82%.

a. The scalar product of vectors A = A₁i + A2₂j + A₃k and B = B₁i + B₂j + B₃k. is A ∙ B = A₁B₁ + A₂B₂ + A₃B₃.

b. The angle between the vectors A = 2i +2j - k and B = 7i + 24k is 97.67°

The scalar product of two vectors a = a₁i + a₂j + a₃k and b = b₁i + b₂j + b₃k is given by

a.b = abcosФ = a₁b₁ + a₂b₂ + a₃b₃ where

6a) Suppose A = A₁i + A2₂j + A₃k and B = B₁i + B₂j + B₃k. Prove that A ∙ B = A₁B₁ + A₂B₂ + A₃B₃.

We proceed as follows

We know that

A ∙ B = (A₁i + A₂j + A₃k). (B₁i + B₂j + B₃k)

= A₁i.(B₁i + B₂j + B₃k) + A₂j.(B₁i + B₂j + B₃k) + A₃k.(B₁i + B₂j + B₃k)

Expanding the brackets, we have

= A₁i.B₁i + A₁i.B₂j + A₁i.B₃k + A₂j.B₁i + A₂j.B₂j + A₂j.B₃k + A₃k.B₁i + A₃k.B₂j + A₃k.B₃k

= A₁B₁i.i + A₁B₂i.j + A₁B₃i.k + A₂B₁j.i + A₂B₂j.j + A₂B₃j.k + A₃B₁k.i + A₃B₂k.j + A₃B₃k.k

We know that

So, we have that

= A₁B₁i.i + A₁B₂i.j + A₁B₃i.k + A₂B₁j.i + A₂B₂j.j + A₂B₃j.k + A₃B₁k.i + A₃B₂k.j + A₃B₃k.k

= A₁B₁(1) + A₁B₂(0) + A₁B₃(0) + A₂B₁(0) + A₂B₂(1) + A₂B₃(0) + A₃B₁(0) + A₃B₂(0) + A₃B₃(1)

= A₁B₁ + 0 + 0 + 0 + A₂B₂ + 0 + 0 + 0 + A₃B₃

= A₁B₁ + A₂B₂ + A₃B₃

So, A ∙ B = A₁B₁ + A₂B₂ + A₃B₃.

6b) To find the angle between the vectors A = 2i +2j - k and B = 7i + 24k, we proceed as follows.

We know that the angle between two vectors is given by

Ф = cos⁻¹[(A.B)/AB​] where

Now, A.B =  (2i +2j - k).(7i + 24k) = (2 × 7 + 2 × 0 + (-1) × 24)

= (14 + 0 - 24)

= -10

Now, the magnitude of a vector C = C₁i + C₂j + C₃k is C = √(C₁² + C₂² + C₃²)

Since vector A = 2i +2j - k its magniude A = √(2² + 2² + (-1)²)

= √(4 + 4 + 1)

= √9

= 3

Also since vector B = 7i + 24k,  its magniude A = √(7² + 0² + 24²)

= √(49 + 0 + 576)

= √625

= 25

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have that

Ф = cos⁻¹[(A.B)/AB​]

Ф = cos⁻¹[(-10)/(3 × 25)]

Ф = cos⁻¹[(-2)/(3 × 5)]

Ф = cos⁻¹[-2/15]

Ф = -0.13333

Ф = 97.67°

So, the angle betwen the vectors is 97.67°

The cross-section that results from slicing a cube through the center vertically, perpendicular to the base, is both a rectangle and a square.

When a cube is sliced through the center vertically, perpendicular to the base, the resulting cross-section will be a rectangle and a square.

Let's consider the properties of a cube. A cube is a three-dimensional solid with six square faces. Each face of the cube is congruent and perpendicular to the adjacent faces. The edges of the cube are all equal in length, and the angles between the faces are all right angles (90 degrees).

When we slice the cube vertically through the center perpendicular to the base, we cut through the cube in such a way that the cross-section obtained is a plane figure. This cross-section will have the same shape as the face of the cube that was cut.

In this case, since the cube has square faces, the cross-section will also have the same shape. Therefore, a square is one of the shapes that apply to the resulting cross-section.

Additionally, since the slice is made through the centre of the cube, the resulting cross-section will pass through the midpoints of two opposite sides of the square face. As a result, the cross-section will have equal side lengths and parallel sides, making it a rectangle.

Final answer:

Therefore, the cross-section that results from slicing a cube through the center vertically, perpendicular to the base, is both a rectangle and a square. These shapes capture the properties of the cube's face and the nature of the cut.

Given statement solution is :- The volume of the resulting part is approximately 267 cubic inches.

To find the volume of the resulting part, we need to calculate the volume of the larger cone and subtract the volume of the smaller cone.

The formula for the volume of a cone is given by:

V = (1/3) * π * [tex]r^2[/tex] * h

where V is the volume, π is a mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159, r is the radius of the cone's base, and h is the height of the cone.

For the larger cone:

Radius (r) = 5 inches

Height (h) = 12 inches

V_large_cone = (1/3) * π * [tex](5^2)[/tex] * 12

V_large_cone = (1/3) * π * 25 * 12

V_large_cone = (1/3) * π * 300

V_large_cone = 100π

For the smaller cone:

Radius (r) = 3 inches

Height (h) = 5 inches

V_small_cone = (1/3) * π * [tex](3^2)[/tex] * 5

V_small_cone = (1/3) * π * 9 * 5

V_small_cone = (1/3) * π * 45

V_small_cone = 15π

Therefore, the volume of the resulting part is:

V_resulting_part = V_large_cone - V_small_cone

V_resulting_part = 100π - 15π

V_resulting_part = 85π

Now, we can approximate the value of π as 3.14159:

V_resulting_part ≈ 85 * 3.14159

V_resulting_part ≈ 267.10715

Rounded to the nearest whole number, the volume of the resulting part is approximately 267 cubic inches.

The value of integral is 3.

Let's evaluate the integral over the positive half of the interval:

∫[0 to π] (cos(x) / √(4 + 3sin(x))) dx

Let u = 4 + 3sin(x), then du = 3cos(x) dx.

Substituting these expressions into the integral, we have:

∫[0 to π] (cos(x) / sqrt(4 + 3sin(x))) dx = ∫[0 to π] (1 / (3√u)) du

Using the power rule of integration, the integral becomes:

∫[0 to π] (1 / (3√u)) du = (2/3) . 2√u ∣[0 to π]

Evaluating the definite integral at the limits of integration:

(2/3)2√u ∣[0 to π] = (2/3) 2(√(4 + 3sin(π)) - √(4 + 3sin(0)))

(2/3) x 2(√(4) - √(4)) = (2/3) x 2(2 - 2) = (2/3) x 2(0) = 0

[tex]\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \int \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x&=\int \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{u}}\cdot \dfrac{1}{3 \cos x}\; \text{d}u\\\\&=\int \dfrac{1}{3\sqrt{u}}\; \text{d}u\\\\&=\int\dfrac{1}{3}u^{-\frac{1}{2}}\; \text{d}u\\\\&=\dfrac{1}{-\frac{1}{2}+1} \cdot \dfrac{1}{3}u^{-\frac{1}{2}+1}+C\\\\&=\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{u}+C\end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute back u = 4 + 3 sin x:

                            [tex]= \dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3\sin x}+C[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \int \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x= \dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3\sin x}+C[/tex]

To evaluate the definite integral, we must first determine any intervals within the given interval -π ≤ x ≤ π where the curve lies below the x-axis. This is because when we integrate a function that lies below the x-axis, it will give a negative area value.

Find the x-intercepts by setting the function to zero and solving for x in the given interval -π ≤ x ≤ π.

[tex]\begin{aligned}\dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}&=0\\\\\cos x&=0\\\\x&=\arccos0\\\\\implies x&=-\dfrac{\pi }{2}, \dfrac{\pi }{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the curve of the function is:

So to calculate the total area, we need to calculate the positive and negative areas separately and then add them together, remembering that if you integrate a function to find an area that lies below the x-axis, it will give a negative value.

Integrate the function between -π and -π/2.

As the area is below the x-axis, we need to negate the integral so that the resulting area is positive:

[tex]\begin{aligned}A_1=-\displaystyle \int^{-\frac{\pi}{2}}_{-\pi} \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x&=- \left[\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3\sin x}\right]^{-\frac{\pi}{2}}_{-\pi}\\\\&=-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)}+\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(-\pi\right)}\\\\&=-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (-1)}+\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (0)}\\\\&=-\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{2}{3}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Integrate the function between -π/2 and π/2:

[tex]\begin{aligned}A_2=\displaystyle \int^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_{-\frac{\pi}{2}} \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x&= \left[\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3\sin x}\right]^{\frac{\pi}{2}}_{-\frac{\pi}{2}}\\\\&=\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)}-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)}\\\\&=\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (1)}-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (-1)}\\\\&=\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}}{3}-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}-2}{3}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Integrate the function between π/2 and π.

As the area is below the x-axis, we need to negate the integral so that the resulting area is positive:

[tex]\begin{aligned}A_3=-\displaystyle \int^{\pi}_{\frac{\pi}{2}} \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x&= -\left[\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3\sin x}\right]^{\pi}_{\frac{\pi}{2}}\\\\&=-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(\pi\right)}+\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)}\\\\&=-\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (0)}+\dfrac{2}{3}\sqrt{4+3 (1)}\\\\&=-\dfrac{4}{3}+\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\end{aligned}[/tex]

To evaluate the definite integral, sum A₁, A₂ and A₃:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\displaystyle \int^{\pi}_{-\pi} \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3\sin x}}\; \text{d}x&=\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}-2}{3}+\dfrac{2\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{2+2\sqrt{7}-2+2\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{4\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\\\\ &\approx2.194\; \sf (3\;d.p.)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Now we have evaluated the definite integral, we can subtract it from 3 to evaluate the given expression:

[tex]\begin{aligned}3-\displaystyle \int^{\pi}_{-\pi} \dfrac{\cos x}{\sqrt{4+3 \sin x}}\; \text{d}x&=3-\dfrac{4\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{9}{3}-\dfrac{4\sqrt{7}-4}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{9-(4\sqrt{7}-4)}{3}\\\\&=\dfrac{13-4\sqrt{7}}{3}\\\\&\approx 0.806\; \sf (3\;d.p.)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the given expression cannot be zero.
