7 0

Answer:

15.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing here is that we calculate the z-score which corresponds to 76

mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

mean = 71 and SD = 5

plugging these values, we have;

z = (76-71)/5 = 5/5 = 1

Now, we want to firstly get the probability that we have a student shorter than 76 inches

The probability we want to calculate is P(z<1)

we can get this using the z-score table directly

That would be 0.15866

In percentage that is 15.866% which is 15.87% to the nearest tenth

Which shows a graph of a linear equation in standard form Ax + By = C, where A = 0, B is positive, and C is negative? A coordina
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, negative 3), (0, negative 3) and (4, negative 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

Ax + By = C, where A = 0, B is positive, and C is negative

By= C or y= C/B which is negative

Since A is zero and C is negative, the line is parallel to x- axis and has negative value for y, so it is a horizontal line below zero

---------------

A coordinate plane with a vertical line passing through (1, negative 4), (1, 0) and (1, 4).

  • no, the line is horizontal

A coordinate plane with a vertical line passing through (negative 2, negative 4), (negative 2, 0) and (negative 2, 4).

  • no, the line is horizontal

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, 4), (0, 4) and (negative 4, 4).

  • no, the y-values should be negative

A coordinate plane with a horizontal line passing through (negative 4, negative 3), (0, negative 3) and (4, negative 3).

  • yes, this is horizontal line below zero

10% of 26.80 = 2.68

5% of 2.68 = 1.34

2.68 + 1.34 = 4.02

Your best estimate is 4.05
