Suppose that diastolic blood pressure readings of adult males have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 82 mmHg and a stand

ard deviation of 10 mmHg. Using the empirical rule, what percentage of adult males have diastolic blood pressure readings that are at least 102 mmHg?

Answer: 95% of adult males have diastolic blood pressure readings that are at least 102 mmHg

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, nearly all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean . The empirical rule is further illustrated below

68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean.

95% fall within two standard deviations.

99.7% fall within three standard deviations.

From the information given, the mean is 82 mmHg and the standard deviation is 10 mmHg.

2 standard deviations = 2 × 10 = 20

82 + 20 = 102 mmHg

Therefore, 95% of adult males have diastolic blood pressure readings that are at least 102 mmHg.

Does the choice of the base affect the area of the triangle
icang [17]
Yes the base of a triangle greatly affects the area of the triangle. Half of the base times the height of a triangle equals its area, so therefore the base greatly affects it.<span />

A circle centered at (-2,3) and contains point (5,9) which represents the equation
SIZIF [17.4K]
The standard form of the equation of a circle is (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2, where (h,k) is the center of the circle, (x,y) is a point of the circle, and r is the length of the radius of the circle. When the equation of a circle is written, h,k, and r are numbers, while x and y are still variables. (x-2)^2 + (y-k)^2 = 16 is an example of a circle. The problem gives us two of the three things that a circle has, a point (5,9) and the center (-2,3). We need to find the radius in order to write the equation. We substitute -2 for h, 3 for k, 5 for x, and 9 for y to get (5 - (-2))^2 + (9 - 3)^2 = r^2 We simplify: 49 + 36 = r^2, r^2 = 85. We only need to know r^2 because the equation of a circle has r^2. We now have all the information to write the equation of a circle. (x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 85.
