At the U.S open tennis championship a statistician keeps track of every serve that a player hits during the tournament. The mean

serve speed was 100 miles per hour and the standard deviation of the serve speeds was 15 mph. Assume the distribution of serve speeds was mound shaped and symmetric. What percentage of the playes serves were between 115 a nd 145 mph?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both 115 and 145 mph are above the mean.  Draw a normal curve and mark these speeds.  115 mph is 1 standard deviation above the mean; 130 would be 2 standard deviations above the mean; and 145 would be 3 s. d. above it.

We need to find the area under the standard normal curve between 115 and 145.  This is equivalent to the area under the standard normal curve between z = 1 and z = 3.

I used my TI-83 Plus calculator's DISTR function "normalcdf(" to calculate this area:  normalcdf(1, 3) = 0.1573.

The area between z = 1 and z = 3 is 0.1573.  In other words, the percentage of serves that were between 115 and 145 mph was 15.73%.

Kay [80]

Answer:

BC ≈ 14.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin65° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{BC}{16} ( multiply both sides by 16 )

16 × sin65° = BC , then

BC ≈ 14.5 cm ( to the nearest tenth )

Put the values of the variables in place of the variables in the expression, then do the arithmetic.

8p+3q-18\\\\=8\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)+3(7)-18=\dfrac{8}{2}+21-18\\\\=4+21-18\\\\=25-18\\\\=\bf{7}
