The  standard deviation of the average age of a breed of dog  is said to be 3.69.

<h3>What is the standard deviation about?</h3>

Note that we take:

  • x = dog age has mean 19.5
  • Unknown standard deviation.

Hence:

z = (x - mean) /SD is distributed N (0,1) - mean o standard deviation 1 (standard normal)

Since 20% of dogs are known to be older than 22.6 years:

So 22.6 years is said to be 80th percentile,

Since z matching to 80th percentile (using the standard normal table) s is <em>0.84.</em>

Then one need to plug z, x which is  = 22.6

mean = 19.5 into the stated z equation:

Hence,

0.84 = (22.6 - 19.5)/SD

SD = (22.6 - 19.5)/0.84

= 3.69

What do implicit bias or racism have to do with peanut butter and jelly?
Mariulka [41]
The only way I would think is that when making a PB&J the jelly and peanut butter are on separate breads showing that division between races. But, when you put the two sides together they are supposed to taste better together than alone which might symbolize that when races come together they are better together than seperate.
