Answer:

Answer is 21%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the heights of adult men in America

X is Normal with mean =69.1 and std dev = 2.65 inches

Percentage of adult males who are under 5 ft 7inches

= height less than 67 inches (since 1 ft = 12 inches)

P(X<67)

=P(Z<\frac{67-69.1}{2.65} =-0.79

=P(Z<-0.79)

=0.5-0.2852

=0.2148

=21.48%

Hence 21% nearly of males in America are shorter than 5'7"

The solution for this problem is:It's given that the heights are normally distributed. 
5 feet 7 inches = (5*12 +7) inches = (60+7) inches = 67 inches. 
The z-score is (67 - 69.1)/(2.65) = -1.136. The probability is 0.127978 or 12.8%, making probability of a height over 67 inches

Answer: C & E

40% is equal to 0.4 as a decimal. As a fraction it is equal to 2/5 in simplest form.

In order to find the present you would have to multiple one of the numbers above by the initial value 84.

If you would like further explanation let me know. :)

(2, -4) → x = 2, y = -4

Put the coordinates of the point to the inequality.

y < x - 2 → -4 < 2 - 2 → -4 < 0   TRUE

y ≥ -x -4 → -4 ≥ -2 - 2 → -4 ≥ -4  TRUE

Answer:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y


You can check other systems.

(2) y > x - 2 → -4 > 2 - 2 → -4 > 0   FALSE

(3) y ≤ -x - 4 → -4 ≤ -2 - 4 → -4 ≤ -6    FALSE

(4) y > x - 2 → -4 > 2 - 2 → -4 > 0   FALSE
