Given:
Bolt of fabric = 14 3/8 yards
length of fabric per skirt = 2 1/2 yards

Convert mixed fractions into improper fractions.

14 3/8 ⇒ (14*8)+3/8 = 115/8
2 1/2 ⇒ (2*2)+1/2 = 5/2

115/8 ÷ 5/2 

115/8 * 2/5 = 115*2 / 8*5 = 230 / 40
230/40 = 5.75

5 whole skirt

5/2 * 5 = 25/2 length of fabric used to make 5 skirts.

115/8 - 25/2 = 115/8 - (25/2 * 4/4) = 115/8 - 100/8 = 15/8 length of excess fabric

15/8 = 1 7/8 yards of fabric will be left.

Adult men have heights that a normally distributed with a mean of 69.5 inches and a standard deviation of 2.4 inches. Adult wome
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

For Adult Men

Mean \mu = 69.5

Standard deviation \sigma = 2.4

observed value X = 74

For Adult Women

Mean \mu = 63.8

Standard deviation \sigma = 2.6

observed value X = 70

Therefore ; the values for their z  scores can be obtained in order to determine who is more unusually tall within his or her respective sex

For Adult Men :

z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}

z = \dfrac{74- 69.5}{2.4}

z = \dfrac{4.5}{2.4}

z = 1.875

For Adult Women :

z = \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma}

z = \dfrac{70- 63.8}{2.6}

z = \dfrac{6.2}{2.6}

z = 2.3846

Thus; we can conclude that , the women is more unusually tall within his or her respective sex
