Answer:

P(-3

And then the probability that  will be farther away from the mean than + 3 standard deviations is just

1-0.9973= 0.0027

And the number of cases would be 1000*0.0027=2.7 or approximatley 3 cases. And the bes option is : a.About 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the variable of interest of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)  

We are interested on this probability

P(X-3\mu

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And we can find this probability on this way:

P(-3

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-3

And then the probability that  will be farther away from the mean than + 3 standard deviations is just

1-0.9973= 0.0027

And the number of cases would be 1000*0.0027=2.7 or approximatley 3 cases. And the bes option is : a.About 3

A free kick is given in a soccer game where the player taking the kick is 14 yards from the left post. The goalie is standing on
JulsSmile [24]

How far is the kicker from the right post, to the nearest yard is: 23 yards.

<h3>Distance</h3>

Using sine theorem

Let y represent the numbers of yards

Left triangle=3/sinx=14/sin∝

Right triangle=5/sinx=y/sin(180-∝°)

sin∝°=sin(180-∝°)

Hence,

3/5=14/y

y=5×14/3

y=23 yards

Therefore how far is the kicker from the right post, to the nearest yard is: 23 yards.

Which best describes the solution to 4-7
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

-3.

Step-by-step explanation:

It will be a negative number because you're taking 7 away from 4. You can do 7-4 and it will equal 3, but you flip it, and it will be -3.

Simplify x0 y-3/x2 y-1
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x^0 y^-3 / x^2 y^-1  

= 1 /  x^2 y^-1 (y^3)  ...because  x^0 = 1 and  [(y^-1) (y^3)] = y^2

= 1/(x^2 y^2)
