Answer:

2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule 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 = 95

Standard deviation = 15

Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are no more than 65?

65 = 95 - 2*15

So 65 is two standard deviations below the mean.

By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean. Of those 5% which are not, 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean and 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean.

So 2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65

10th grade geometry <br> Select statements that are true about angles on diagram
Goshia [24]

Answer:

  B, C

Step-by-step explanation:

The only statements that must be true are ones that describe the markings on the diagram:

 NO as an angle bisector

  N is the vertex of a pair of congruent angles

_____

The only other fact that must be true is that segments on the left side of the diagram are proportional to those (corresponding) on the right. (This is a property of the angle bisector.) There is nothing that says the sides must be equal, or that the triangle is isosceles.
