Answer:
a) 229 and 305 days
b) 229 days or less
c) 305 days or more
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7 rule) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 267
Standard deviation = 19
(a) Between what values do the lengths of the middle 95% of all pregnancies fall?_____________and___________days
By the Empirical rule, 95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
to
267 + 2*19 = 305 days
(b) How short are the shortest 2.5% of all pregnancies?______days or less
95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 5% are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean. Since the distribution is symmetric, 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(shortest 2.5%) and 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations above the mean(longest 2.5%). So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
c) How long do the longest 2.5% of pregnancies last?________days or more
Explanation in b)
267 + 2*19 = 305 days
It’s 79. Alternate exterior angles are equal.
Answer:
Ezra can water at most approximately 8 sunflower plants with the remaining amount of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the inequality function
0.7S+0.5L≤11 where S represent the number of sunflower plants and L represent the number of lily plants Ezra's water supply can water, if Ezra waters 10 lily plants, then we can calculate the maximum amount of sunflower plant that he can water with the remaining amount of water by simply substituting L = 10 into the inequality function as shown;
0.7S+0.5L≤11
0.7S+0.5(10)≤11
0.7S+5≤11
Taking 5 to the other side:
0.7S≤11-5
0.7S≤6
S≤6/0.7
S≤8.57
This shows that Ezra can water at most approximately 8 sunflower plants with the remaining amount of water.
Answer:
n=48
Step-by-step explanation:
n
_ = 1 6
3
Multiply each side by 3
n/3 * 3 = 16*3
n = 48
