Answer:

99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule formula states that:

• 68% of data falls within 1 standard deviation from the mean - that means between μ - σ and μ + σ.

• 95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ.

• 99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ.

From the question, we have mean of 98.18 F and a standard deviation of 0.65 F

The approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and100.13 ​F is

μ - 3σ

= 98.18 - 3(0.65)

= 98.18 - 1.95

= 96.23 F

μ + 3σ.

98.18 + 3(0.65)

= 98.18 + 1.95

= 100.13 F

Therefore, the approximate percentage of healthy adults with body temperatures between 96.23 F and 100.13 ​F which is within 3 standard deviations of the mean is 99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

10/7 = 1.4285

9/y = 1.4285

Multiply both sides by y.

9 = 1.4285y

Divide both sides by y.

6.3 = y

Does anyone understand these questions? If so would someone please please help me?
ladessa [460]
First question, the answer is C. 2nd question, the answer is A


Explanation: I don’t know how to well explain graphs.. however, on the vertical line, that’s the amount of money the person pays after the amount of months they’ve started their plan. Whether that be beginner, or veteran. If you look, the lines overlap a month which is month 4. This is where they both pay 100$, this is because the 100 lines up at that point. For the 2nd question, the beginner would have paid lower than the veteran because the line is below the first. Hope this helps!

mixas84 [53]
<span>The number is 470, 000


To explain further:
An example is
14,494 </span>
<span>To round off the height value to the nearest thousand we can use the expanded from to clarity the position of numbers which is: </span>
<span>10, 000 = ten thousand </span>
<span>4, 000 = thousands </span>
<span>400 = hundreds </span>
<span>90 = tens </span>
<span>4 = ones </span>
<span>Here we can notice than four thousand is the value where the nearest thousands is placed. Hence we can round off the number of 14, 494 into 14, 000. Notice 0-4 rounding off rules.<span>
