Answer:

b) far above average

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

mean      μ₀  = 76

Standard Deviation   σ = 6

Values in Normal Distribution spread according to:

μ₀  +   σ    =  67.3 %

μ₀  +  2*σ =   95.5 %

μ₀  +  3*σ =   99.7 %

Is relevant to explain that these values spread simmetrically, having as symmetry axis the mean (That is: when we see  μ₀  +  2*σ,  that means that from  μ₀, we will find half of values under the mean and the other half above)

To examine the value 89, scored in the last game we will look for our paticular case values obtained from previuos conditions

That implies:

μ₀  +   σ    = 76 ± 0,5σ     =  76  ± 3      upper limit 79

μ₀  + 2σ    = 76  ±    σ       = 76  ± 6      upper lmit   82

μ₀  + 3σ    = 76  ±   1.5 σ   = 76 ± 9      upper limit  85

We should expect most of the values between the above intervals, the value " 89 " is bigger than 85, the point limit of the 99.7 % of all values, so we should conclude that 89 is far above average ( μ₀ )

Answer:

1 and 3 are both perpendicular to segment NY

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the slope of line NY

slope of NY = 5-(-7)/-11-5 = - 3/4

Any line that is perpendicular to NY should have a slope of the inverse of negative slope of NY.

2.Find the slope of perpendicular lines

the inverse of negative slope of NY = - (-4/3) = 4/3

Help please geometry, show all work!! Thanks :-)
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

BC = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

If all angles are the same then all the sides are the same; therefore, BC = AC.

Set up the equations to solve for y

-y + 23 = 6y + 2; add y to both sides

23 = 7y + 2; subtract 2 from both sides

21 = 7y; divide by 7

y = 3; now use this to substitute into term for BC = 6y + 2 = 6(3) + 2 = 18+2 = 20
