Answer:

(a) 68%

(b) 0.3%

(c) 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Data</u>

  • mean = 100
  • standard deviation (sd) = 17

(a) mean - sd = 100 - 17 = 83

mean + sd = 100 + 17 = 117

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 68% of the values are within mean ± 1 sd

(b) mean - 3*sd = 100 - 3*17 = 49

mean + 3*sd = 100 + 3*17 = 151

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 100% - 99.7% = 0.3% of the values are beyond mean ± 3 sd

(c) mean + 2*sd = 100 + 2*17 = 134

The 68–95–99.7 rule states that 95% of the values are within mean ± 2 sd , this means that 5/2 = 2.5% of the values are below mean - 2 sd, and 2.5% are above mean + 2 sd

Which expression is equivalent to 6x^2 + 13x + 5?
hodyreva [135]

The signs of the x-term and the constant term are both positive, so the signs of the constants in the binomial factors must be the same and must both be positive. The only offering that meets that requirement is

... C (2x+1)(3x+5)

_____

If you multiply that out, you get 6x² + 10x + 3x + 5 = 6x² +13x +5, as required.

The sign of the constant term is the product of the signs of the constants in the binomial factors: (+1)·(+5). We want a positive sign for the constant, so both binomial factor constants must have the same sign.

When the signs of the binomial factor constants are the same, the x-term constant will match them. Thus, for a positive x-term constant, both binomial factor constants must be positive.

How many 2-inch segments are there in 12 ft.?<br> a. 10<br> b. 24<br> c. 6<br> d. 72
Vlada [557]
Every foot is composed of 12 inches. Below is the way to solve the number of inches (n) in 12 ft.
 
                                     n = (12 ft) x (12 inches / 1 ft) = 144 inches

To determine the number of 2-inch segments, divide 144 inches by 2. The division gives an answer of 72. Thus, there are 72 2-inch segment in 12 ft.
