When referring to the normal probability distribution, there is not just one; there is a "family" of normal probability distribu

<span>A probability distribution is formed from all possible outcomes of a random process (for a random variable X) and the probability associated with each outcome. Probability distributions may either be discrete (distinct/separate outcomes, such as number of children) or continuous (a continuum of outcomes, such as height). A probability density function is defined such that the likelihood of a value of X between a and b equals the integral (area under the curve) between a and b. This probability is always positive. Further, we know that the area under the curve from negative infinity to positive infinity is one. The normal probability distribution, one of the fundamental continuous distributions of statistics, is actually a family of distributions (an infinite number of distributions with differing means (ÎĽ) and standard deviations (Ď). Because the normal distribution is a continuous distribution, we can not calculate exact probability for an outcome, but instead we calculate a probability for a range of outcomes (for example the probability that a random variable X is greater than 10). The normal distribution is symmetric and centered on the mean (same as the median and mode). While the x-axis ranges from negative infinity to positive infinity, nearly all of the X values fall within +/- three standard deviations of the mean (99.7% of values), while ~68% are within +/-1 standard deviation and ~95% are within +/- two standard deviations. This is often called the three sigma rule or the 68-95-99.7 rule. The normal density function is shown below (this formula won’t be on the diagnostic!)</span>

Ava has already cycled 9 kilometers this year, plus she plans to cycle 2 kilometers during each trip to work. How many trips wil
stellarik [79]

Answer:Ava will have a total of 8 trips to make to total of 25 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance that Ava has already cycled this year is 9 kilometers.

she plans to cycle 2 kilometers during each trip to work.

Let x represent her number of trips to work. Therefore, for Ava to make a total of 25 kilometers, it means that

2x + 9 = 25

Subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation, it becomes

2x + 9 - 8 = 25 - 9

2x = 16

x = 16/2 = 8

Answer: 2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

10.12 move the decimal twice so its 1012 and do the same for 4.4 but add a zero at the end because u one one number after decimal point. then divide 1012/ 440 = 2.3
