Answer:

Explanation:
oarfish that are shorter than 5 m

Let x be the random variable representing the length of an oarfish. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

The given probability value is 16% = 0.16. From the normal distribution table, the z score corresponding to the probability value is - 0.99

This indicates that the sample mean is lower than the population mean

Therefore,

- 0.99 = (x - 6.5)/1.5

- 0.99 × 1.5 = x - 6.5

- 1.5 = x - 6.5

x = - 1.5 + 6.5

x = 5m

The correct answer is

oarfish that are shorter than 5 m

Deer populations of the puget sound toefl answers
makvit [3.9K]

The true statement about white-tailed deer is that they no longer live in an area they were once found; option D.

<h3>What is true of the White-tailed deer of the Puget sound?</h3>

The passage describes two types of Deer found in the area called Puget Sound.

The passage indicates that the white-tailed deer together with the black-tailed deer were the once the two prevalent deer of the Puget Sound.

However, only the black-tailed deer are more common now as the white-tailed deer has been restricted to the low marshy areas and Islands of the Columbia river.

Although the reason for this decline was not given, but it can be inferred that environmental changes led to the decline of the white-tailed deer in the area of Puget sound.

When species of organisms are not able to fully adapt to changes in their environment, the population of that species of organism will reduce until they eventually are no more found in that environment.

In conclusion, white-tailed deer are no longer common in the Puget Sound.
