NEED HELP ASAP.....At the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, in the Men's Shot Put qualifying round, the distances ranged from

17.58 meters to 21.36 meters with a mean distance of 19.64 meters and a standard deviation equal to 0.92 meters. If the distribution were truly a normal distribution, what percent of the athletes would have had a distance greater than 20.56 meters, one standard deviation above the mean? There were 40 athletes in the competition. How many athletes does that represent?
OPTIONS:
-about 6 athletes

Answer:

About 6 athletes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are concerned only with the percent of athletes that are above one standard deviation.

Between one standard deviation and two standard deviations, there is 13.6% of the athletes.

From 2 to 3, there is 2.1%. Above 3, there is 0.2%.

The sum of those percentages is 15.9% of 40 = 0.159 · 40 = 6.36 or about 6 athletes.

Hope this helps.

Talja [164]
(13 + x)/(50 - x ) = (2/1)
Cross Multiply
2(50-x) = 1(13 + x)
100 - 2x = 13 + x
add 2x to both sides
100 -2x + 2x = 13 + x + 2x
100 = 13 + 3x
Subtract 13 from both sides
100 - 13 = 13 - 13 + 3x
87 = 3x
divide both sides by 3
29 = x

(13 + 29)/(50-29) = 42/21 = 2 to 1 ratio
