Answer: a) (315,345) b) 99.7%, c) 0.14%, d) 97.36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 330 grams

Standard deviation = 15 grams

(a) About 68​% of organs will be between what​ weights? ​

We will use 68-95-99.7 rule, it is empirical.

as we know that

P(\mu-\sigma\leq X\leq \mu +\sigma)\approx 0.6827

So,

\mu -\sigma=330-15=315\\\\\mu+\sigma=330+15=345

So,the 68% of the data falls within three standard deviation or will be between (315 grams and 345 grams)

(b) What percentage of organs weighs between 285 grams and 375 ​grams?

\mu+3\sigma=330+3\times 15=330+45=375\\\\\mu-3\sigma=330-3\times 15=330-45=285

so, 99.7 % of organs weighs between 285 grams and 315 grams, because the these two values are within one standard deviation of the mean.

(c) What percentage of organs weighs less than 285 grams or more than 375 ​grams? ​

Since it is 3 standard deviation below the mean and 3 standard deviations above the mean.

so, it becomes

1-0.9973=0.0027\\\\\dfrac{0.0027}{2}=0.00135\\\\So,0.00135\times 100=0.135\%=0.14\%

Since 285 grams is 3 standard deviation below the mean(=330 grams) and 375 grams is 3 standard deviation above the mean(=330 grams).

So 0.14% data is lies below the 285 grams and 0.14% data is lies above the 375 grams.

(d) What percentage of organs weighs between 300 grams and 375 ​grams?

\mu-2\sigma=330-2\times 15=330-30=300\\\\\mu+3\sigma=330+3\times 15=330+45=375

So, 300 grams is 2 standard deviation below the mean i.e. 330 grams and 375 grams is 3 standard deviation above the mean i.e. 330 grams.

so, percentage of organs weighs would be

100-2.5-0.14=97.36\%

Hence, a) (315,345) b) 99.7%, c) 0.14%, d) 97.36%.

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right angle. This means that the square to the bottom right is 90 degrees. There is also an angle that is 124, but that is a linear pair to the angle on the inside. This means that 124+__=180 degrees

180-124= 56

So now we know 2 angles, which are 90 degrees and 56 degrees. Because we know that the sum of the angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees, we can subtract 90 and 56 from 180 to get our answer, 34.

How much do u need to subtract from 41/6 to make 6
dem82 [27]
41/6-5/6 = 36/6
36/6= 6

So 5/6 would need to be subtracted to develop a fraction that divides to 6

6) Find the measure of ∠G.
topjm [15]

Answer:

m<G = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Find x first

7x + 1 + 6x - 6 + 55 = 180

Combine like terms:

13x + 50 = 180

      - 50    - 50

13x = 130

/13     /13

x = 10

Then apply to problem

7 (10) + 1

70 + 1

= 71
