Answer:
a) 229 and 305 days
b) 229 days or less
c) 305 days or more
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7 rule) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 267
Standard deviation = 19
(a) Between what values do the lengths of the middle 95% of all pregnancies fall?_____________and___________days
By the Empirical rule, 95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
to
267 + 2*19 = 305 days
(b) How short are the shortest 2.5% of all pregnancies?______days or less
95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 5% are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean. Since the distribution is symmetric, 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(shortest 2.5%) and 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations above the mean(longest 2.5%). So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
c) How long do the longest 2.5% of pregnancies last?________days or more
Explanation in b)
267 + 2*19 = 305 days
Answer:
The area is 72 cm².
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is equivalent triangle
h = b
so,
b + b + b (since all sides are equal)= 36 cm
3b = 36 cm
or, b = 36/3
so, b = 12 cm
so
area of triangle = (1/2)×b×h
= (1/2)×12cm×12cm
= 6cm × 12cm
= 72 cm²
Dave pays $15 and tax is $1.2 so dave spent a total of $16.20.
Mel pays $20 and tax is $1.6 so Mel spent a total of $21.60.
All you need to do is convert the percent to a decimal, so take 8 and divide by 100 and you get 0.08. then you need to multiply the cost by the tax so 15*0.08=1.2 then you just add tax to original amount 15+1.2=16.2

I believe Commercial Mathematics is the kind of mathematics for the bussiness world. Where you calculate: There are 12 productions and three companies. Two companies already took 8 productions. How many productions will the last company take? Stuff like that.
