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

The negative sign in 15t-2t belongs to the term____?
alexdok [17]

The expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.

Solution:

Given expressions are 15t – 2t and 2t – 15t.

To determine 15t – 2t is equivalent to 2t – 15t or not.

Substitute t = 2 in above two expressions.

15t – 2t = 15(2) – 2(2)

            = 30 – 4

            = 26

2t – 15t = 2(2) – 15(2)

            = 4 – 30

            = –26

The values of the expressions are different when t = 2.

So, 15t – 2t is not equivalent to 2t – 15t.

Hence the expression 15t – 2t not equivalent to 2t – 15t because the negative sign in 15t – 2t belongs to the term 2t.
