Meteorologists have tracked the total annual rainfall in the town of Spring Valley year after year and found that it follows a n

ormal distribution. The average annual rainfall is 30 inches, with a standard deviation of 8 inches. In one particular year, only 18 inches of rain fell. You work for the local newspaper, and your editor has asked you to write a story about the terrible drought the town is suffering from and how dire the situation is.
Based on your understanding of the underlying statistics (especially the normal curve), do you agree with your editor’s sensationalist take of the situation?

Based on the understanding of the underlying statistics editor's has been right about the droughts there a major drought because if you take average rainfall was 30 and one of the year it was 18 the normal distribution or bar graphs falls from 30 to 18. If you take standard deviation minimum rainfall is 22 and minimum rainfall is 10 which is drastically low.Editors is right there is decline in rainfall which could lead to droughts,

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Normal distribution, basically a bell shaped curved which has two sides.
  • Two sides which is a histogram which is used.

  • Standard deviation is squaring error and error which is plus or minus.
  • Statistics descriptive statistics are based on averaging and then normal.

Which function represents g(x) a reflection of f(x)=4[1/2]x across the x-axis
mestny [16]
A function, such  is a mathematical collection of algebraic terms. Functions can be reflected across the x-axis by multiplying the entire function by -1. In this case multiplying the function  by -1 leads to -4x/2. Hence the new function is -4x/2. Functions can also be reflected in the y-axis by replacing x with -x.
