Answer:

<em>First option 5%</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Normal Distribution</u>

Gauss Distribution is one of the most widely-used continuous probability distribution to characterize random events. The curve of the function is called the bell curve.  

The standard Normal Distribution is a special case where the mean \mu=0 and the standard deviation \sigma=1. The values of the cumulative normal distribution cannot be computed by simple calculations, we must use tables of digital implementations integrated with tools like Excel or any online resource.

The entry for standard normal distribution is a parameter called the z-score, computed like shown below

\displaystyle z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

The values provided in our problem are

X=14,\ \mu=16,\ \sigma=1.2

Computing z results

\displaystyle z=\frac{14-16}{1.2}=-1.667

By using any of the aforementioned resources, we compute the left-tail probability

P(z=-1.667)=0.048\approx 5\%

We choose the first option 5%

salantis [7]

Answer:

CD= 2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = 6x-4

AC = 4x - 3

CD= AD- AC

CD=  6x-4 - (4x - 3)

CD= 6x - 4 - 4x +3

CD= 2x -1

Therefore, the value of CD= 2x-1

b  8  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

a)  4 1/3 * 6

Change the mixed number to an improper fraction

(3*4+1)/3 *6

13/3 *6

= 78/3

= 26


b)  2 3/5 * 3 1/3

Change the mixed numbers to  improper fractions

(5*2+3)/5   * (3*3+1)/3

13/5 *  10/3

130/15

Top and bottom divide by 5

26/3

Change back to a mixed number

3 goes into 26  8  times  (3*8 =24)   with 2 left over

8 2/3
