With the aim of identifying the presence of the feline leukemia virus (FeLV), blood samples were collected from cats sent to a private veterinary clinic in the city of Belo Horizonte. Among the animals treated, it was possible to observe that age followed a Normal distribution with a mean of 4.44 years and a standard deviation of 1.09 years. Considering this information, determine the value of the third quartile of the ages of the animals treated at this veterinary clinic. ATTENTION: Provide the answer to exactly FOUR decimal places
Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit ​95% of all males.​ (Accommodating 100% of males would require very wide seats that would be much too​ expensive.) Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 in. and a standard deviation of 1.2 in. Find P95. That​ is, find the hip breadth for men that separates the smallest ​95% from the largest 5​%.
A function is considered exponential when it has a base with positive values greater than zero and different from one, where the exponent is an unknown. An important characteristic of exponential functions is that they show rapid growth or decay as an independent variable increases or decreases. Given the function 25^(x+3)=125, it is calculated that x has the value of

The car with an irresponsible driver starts to brake when it goes through a red light. When passing the traffic light, he does so at a speed of 115 kph in the right lane. Further ahead, 70 meters from the traffic light, a child is crossing the street and falls. If the effect of the car's brakes is equivalent to a deceleration of magnitude 5.7m/sΒ². Is the child hit by the car or not? How far from the traffic light does the car stop?
