Answer:
119.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Mean (m) = 100 years
Standard deviation (sd) = 15 years
closest to the age of a Galápagos Islands giant tortoise at the 90th percentile of the
distribution?
Obtain the Zscore for 90th percentile (0.90) on the z table = 1.28
Zscore = (X - mean) / standard deviation
1.28 = (X - 100) / 15
1.28 × 15 = X - 100
19.2 = X - 100
19.2 + 100 = X
X = 119.2
X=37/5
or 7.4 in decimal form
For this case we will complete the table part by part.
We have then:
First row:
Snake = Rabbit = 4
Rabbit = Not Snake = 18
Total = 4 + 18 = 22
Second row:
Not rabbit = Snake = 11
Not rabbit = Not Snake = 26
Total = 11 + 26 = 37
Third row:
Total = 4 + 11 = 15
Total = 18 + 26 = 44
Total = 59
