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
-about 14 athletes
-about 20 athletes
-about 26 athletes
-about 34 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.

Smith cut his peanut butter
Lorico [155]
The answer is the square root of 101.75
Assuming that the sandwich Is a square, after cutting it diagonally, it turns into 2 triangles. To look for a missing length of a triangle, you use Pythagorean’s theorem a^2+b^2=c^2
Since c is 12 and a is 6.5 you just square 12 and square 6.5
144 42.25
Subtract it
101.75
You then have to find the square root of it. You can leave it as it is as √101.75 or just solve for it and round it to 10.09

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions to follow.<br><br> Find a, b and c
Feliz [49]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Using trigonometric ratio, find b:

Reference angle = 45

opposite = 8

Hypotenuse = b

Thus,

Sin(45) = 8/b

b = 8/sin(45)

b = 8/(1/√2) (sin 45 = 1/√2)

b = 8 × √2/1

b = 8√2

✔️Find a using trigonometric ratio:

Reference angle = 60°

Hypotenuse = b = 8√2

Adjacent = a

Therefore,

Cos(60) = a/8√2

8√2*cos(60) = a

8√2*½ = a

4√2 = a

a = 4√2

✔️Find c using Pythagorean Theorem:

c² = b² - a²

c² = (8√2)² - (4√2)²

c² = 128 - 32

c² = 96

c = √96

c = √(16*6)

c = 4√6

The following numerically ordered sequence of numbers has a mean
Vladimir79 [104]
Median =  middle number

Total ten numbers so 
median =   (17 + b)/2
given median = 18
so
(17 + b)/  2 = 18
17+b = 36
b = 36 - 17
b = 19

Now you have the data set
7, a , 12, 15 , 17, 19, 20, 22, 24 , 25

Mean =  (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24  +25)/ 10
Given mean = 17

so
17 = (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24  +25)/ 10
17 = (a + 161) / 10
a + 161 = 170
a = 170 - 161
a = 9

answer
a = 9
b = 19
