This is a proportion question.

0.5:40 miles :: 5:x

Translated into division you get 0.5/40 = 5/x          Cross multiply

0.5 x = 40 * 5                   combine the right

0.5x = 200                       divide by 0.5

0.5x/0.5 = 200/0.5          Divide

x = 400

Answer: The two cities are 400 miles apart

The average and standard deviation of a measurement is 15.0 ± 5.0. if 100 students measured the value, how many would you expect
AURORKA [14]

Solution: We are given:

\mu=15, \sigma=5

Using the empirical rule, we have:

\mu \pm \sigma covers 68% of data.

Also the percentage of values below mean = Percentage of values above mean = 50%

Now, let's find the z score for x=20

z=\frac{20-15}{5}=1

Therefore, the percentage of values greater than 1 standard deviation above mean 50\% - \frac{68\%}{2} =50\%-34\%=16%

Expected number of students = 16% of 100 = 16
