Human heights are one of many biological random variables that can be modeled by the normal distribution. a 2002 study in the us

found the mean height for 19 year old males is 176.7 cm with a standard deviation of 9.9 cm. a basketball play is usually over 188 cm - what proportion of the 19 year old male population is greater than this height?

To answer this item, find first the z-score of the given data.

    z-score = (x - m) / d

where x is data point, m is the mean and d is the standard deviation

Substituting the given values,

    z-score = (188 - 176.7) / 9.9  = 1.14

This translates to a percentage of 87.29%. 

Because we are asked of the percentage of those with height greater than this, that would be,
     100 - 87.29% = 12.71%

Answer: 12.71%

A spherical paintball measures 1.5 centimeters in diameter. Approximately how much paint is in it?
algol [13]

In this problem, you are asked to compute for the volume of the spherical paintball. The formula in computing the volume of the sphere is:

V = 4/3 (pi) r^2

Where r = the radius of the sphere

Since the given measurement is in diameter, you need to compute the radius of the sphere. The radius of the sphere is half its diameter. Therefore, the radius of the sphere is 0.75 cm (1.5 cm / 2).

Substituting the radius to the formula and using 3.14 as the value of pi:

V = 4/3(3.14)(0.75)^2

V = 2.355 cm^3 or 2.36 cubic centimeters (note that cubic centimeter is equal to mL)

Therefore, there are approximately 2.36 mL of paint in the paintball.

2. Explain the relationship between depression and heart disease.
vredina [299]

Answer:

People with depression may have uncommonly sticky platelets, the tiny cells that cause blood to clot. In patients with heart disease, this can accelerate atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and increase the chance of heart attack. Some studies show that treating depression make platelets less sticky again.

Answer:

100 beats per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 28.8 secs for the piano to play 48 beats, then it would take 60 secs (1 minute) to play x number of beats.

To find the value of x, which is the number of beats the piano makes per minute, let's set the proportion as shown below:

28.8 secs = 48 beats

60 secs = x beats

Cross multiply

28.8*x = 60*48

28.8x = 2,880

Divide both sides by 28.8

x = 2,880/28.8

x = 100

✅Thus, if the Piano plays 48 beats in 28.8 secs, therefore, the tempo of the piano in beats per minute would be 100 BPM
