Answer:

a) 95% percentage of people has an IQ score between 80 and 120.

b) 68% percentage of people has an IQ score between 90 and 110.    

c) 2.5% percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 120.          

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical formula states that:

  • The empirical rule is known as the three-sigma rule or 68-95-99.7 rule.
  • It is a rule which states that for a normal distribution, almost all data falls within three standard deviations of the mean.
  • 68% of data falls within the first standard deviation that is \mu \pm \sigma
  • 95% of data falls within the second standard deviation that is \mu \pm 2\sigma
  • 99.7% of data falls within the third standard deviation that is \mu \pm 3\sigma

a)  percentage of people has an IQ score between 80 and 120

(80, 120) can be written as:

(80, 120) = (100-2(10), 100 + 2(10))\\= (\mu \pm 2\sigma)

Thus, it is the interval within two standard deviation from the mean.

Thus, by empirical formula, 95% percentage of people has an IQ score between 80 and 120.

b) percentage of people has an IQ score between 90 and 110

(90, 110) can be written as:

(90, 110) = (100-1(10), 100 + 1(10))\\= (\mu \pm 1\sigma)

Thus, it is the interval within one standard deviation from the mean.

Thus, by empirical formula, 68% percentage of people has an IQ score between 90 and 110.

c) P(score greater than 120)

= 1 - percentage of score less than 80 - percentage of score between 80 and 120

= 1 - (95\% + 2.5\%) = 2.5\%

From empirical formula,

2.5% percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 120.

The quotient of 4 and 1/5 will be greater than 4.
bixtya [17]
First, we will need to compute the quotient of 4 and 1/5
When we divide a number by a fraction, we convert the division to multiplication and then flip this fraction.
Therefore, in the given:
4 / (1/5) we will convert the division into multiplication and flip the 1/5 to 5
This will result is the following:
4 / (1/5) = 4*5 = 20

Comparing this quotient to 4, we will find that the quotient is greater than 4

Therefore, the given statement is: True

The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 60% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 85% p
andrew11 [14]

Answer: There are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Percentage of pure fruit juice in first type = 60%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in second type = 85%

Percentage of pure fruit juice in mixture = 80%

We will use "Mixture and Allegation" to find the ratio of first and second type in mixture:

          First type          Second type

               60%                    85%

                              80%

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

     85-80               :              80-60

       5%                  :                 20%

        1                     :                   4

so, the ratio of first and second type is 1:4.

Total number of pints of mixture = 160

Number of pints of mixture of  first type in mixture  is given by

\dfrac{1}{5}\times 160\\\\=32\ pints

Number of pints of mixture of second type in mixture is given by

\dfrac{4}{5}\times 160\\\\=4\times 32\\\\=128\ pints

Hence, there are 32 pints of first type and 128 pints of second type in mixture.

Please help, I added a photo to show the question. I’m so confused and I need help, so if you could show work I’d really appreci
Mashutka [201]




Angle A = 30 and its complement would be 60. This is because both angles must equal 90 degrees, and 30 + 60 = 90. Also in the directions it states Angle A must be half of its complement. 30 is half of 60. Sorry I don’t have any work, I just did it in my head!

Any questions? Hope this helps!
