A grocery store will only accept yellow onions that are at least 3 inches in diameter. A grower has a crop of onions with diameters that are normally distributed with a mean diameter of 3.25 inches and a standard deviation of 0.25 inches. What percent of the onions will be accepted by the grocery store?

594 square inches

step-by-step explanation:

if a = 1,   and b = 2, then the answer is 47.99999999. if you round that to the nearest whole number, the answer is 48.

or

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
