Answer:

P(Z>3) = 1-P(Z

So then the probability that an individual present and IQ higher than 3 deviation from the mean is 0.00135

And if we find the number of individuals that can be considered as genius we got: 0.00135*1500=2.025

And we can say that the answer is a.2

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 IQ scores 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>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 the following probablity:

P(Z>3) = 1-P(Z

So then the probability that an individual present and IQ higher than 3 deviation from the mean is 0.00135

And if we find the number of individuals that can be considered as genius we got: 0.00135*1500=2.025

And we can say that the answer is a/2.0

Hãy nêu định lý pytago

The text of the Pythagorean Theorem The Pythagorean Theorem states: “The sum of the squares of the lengths of the two sides of the right triangle, which are the shortest sides in a right-angled triangle, is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse, which is the longest side of the triangle.”

And in symbols: Pythagorean theorem = ( A² + B² = C²)

where ;

● A, B: the two sides of a right triangle ABC.

● C: The hypotenuse of a right triangle is ABC, which is the longest side.

It should be noted that the inverse of the theory is also true; Since the triangle to which the Pythagorean theorem applies, namely: A² + B² = C², is necessarily a right-angled triangle.

<h3><u>In Vietnamese ( Bằng tiếng việt) ;</u></h3>

Nội dung của Định lý Pitago Định lý Pitago phát biểu: “Tổng bình phương độ dài hai cạnh của tam giác vuông, là cạnh ngắn nhất của tam giác vuông, bằng bình phương độ dài của cạnh huyền, là cạnh dài nhất của tam giác. "

Và trong các ký hiệu: Định lý Pitago = (A² + B² = C²)

ở đâu ;

● A, B: hai cạnh của tam giác vuông ABC.

● C: Cạnh huyền của tam giác vuông ABC là cạnh dài nhất.

Cần lưu ý rằng điều ngược lại của lý thuyết cũng đúng; Vì tam giác áp dụng định lý Pitago, cụ thể là: A² + B² = C², nhất thiết phải là tam giác vuông.

I hope I helped you^_^

PLZ HELP WITH THIS QUESTION!
Bad White [126]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic

d = - 16t² + 12t ← subtract d from both sides

- 16t² + 12t - d = 0 ← in standard form

with a = - 16, b = 12, c = - d

Use the quadratic formula to solve for t

t = ( - 12 ± \sqrt{12^2-(4(-16)(-d))}) / - 32

 = ( - 12 ± \sqrt{144-64d}) / - 32

 = ( - 12 ± \sqrt{16(9-4d)}) / - 32

 = ( - 12 ± 4\sqrt{9-4d}) / - 32

 = \frac{-12}{-32} ± \frac{4}{-32}\sqrt{9-4d}

 = \frac{3}{8} ± \frac{1}{8}\sqrt{9-4d}

 = \frac{3}{8} ± \frac{\sqrt{9-4d} }{8} → D
