Answer:
I. 60%
II. 75.4 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the z-scores and the standard normal distribution to answer this questions.
We have a normal distribution with mean 69 kg and variance 25 kg^2 (therefore, standard deviation of 5 kg).
I. What percentage of adult male in Boston weigh more than 72 kg?
We calculate the z-score for 72 kg and then calculate the associated probability:

II. What must an adult male weigh in order to be among the heaviest 10% of the population?
We have to calculate tha z-score that satisfies:

This happens for z=1.28 (see attachment).
Then, we can calculate the weight using this transformation:

Answer:
5.54 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Assume she runs up to a point that is x miles to the east of the coral reef:
distance running =
distance swimming =
2. Times:
time= distance / speed
time running =
time swimming =
3. Total time
time running + time swimming:
4. Minimize time
The minimum time is when the derivative of the function of time is zero.
Find the derivative of T(x), using rule of the sum, the derivative of the sum is the sum of the derivatives, and the chain rule:
Solve for x:
5. Distance the visitor should run to minimize the time
Hence, the visitor should run 5.54 miles.

Answer:
9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume is given by the formula ...
V = LWH
Filling in the given numbers, you have ...
144 cm^3 = (4 cm)(4 cm)H
H = (144 cm^3)/(16 cm^2) = 9 cm
The height of the prism is 9 cm.
