Answer:

16% of students will complete the exam in less than 60 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 70

Standard deviation = 10

What percentage of students will complete the exam in less than 60 minutes

60 = 70-10

So 60 is one standard deviation below the mean

By the Empirical Rule, 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, that is, from 60 to 80 minutes. The other 100-68 = 32% is outside this interval. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 16% of those are below 60 and 16% of those are above 80.

16% of students will complete the exam in less than 60 minutes

Add and simplify 1/5 + 1/10
aliya0001 [1]

In order to add these fractions we have to make a common denominator.

1/5 can turn into 2/10 Its the same thing. And its easier to solve with.

now lets multiply.

\frac{2}{10} × \frac{1}{10}

Now we add across

2 + 1 = 3

------------  

10 + 10 = 10 ( When adding fractions like these the denominator stays the same)

So your answer is...

\frac{3}{10}

Good Luck! :)
