Answer:

b = 54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions if the shapes are similar

Take the same side lengths over each other.

81 cm b cm

----------- = --------------

24 cm 16 cm

Using cross products

81 *16 = 24*b

Divide each side by 24

81*16/24 = 24b/24

54 =b

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

$\mu -2\sigma = 24-2*3= 18$

$\mu -2\sigma = 24+2*3= 30$

So then we can conclude that we expect the middle 95% of the values within 18 and 30 minutes for this case

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can define the random variable X as the amount of time it takes her to arrive to work and we know that the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu = 24, \sigma =3)$

And we want to use the empirical rule to estimate the middle 95% of her commute times. And the empirical rule states that we have 68% of the values within one deviation from the mean, 95% of the values within two deviations from the mean and 99.7 % of the values within 3 deviations from the mean. And we can find the limits on this way:

$\mu -2\sigma = 24-2*3= 18$

$\mu -2\sigma = 24+2*3= 30$

So then we can conclude that we expect the middle 95% of the values within 18 and 30 minutes for this case
