Answer:

(D) 99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the percentage of​ 18-year-old women that will have a systolic blood pressure that lies within 3 standard deviations of the​ mean.

The empirical rule of normal distribution states approximately 68% of data lies within one standard deviation of mean, approximately 95% of data lies within two standard deviations of mean and approximately 99.7% of data lies within three standard deviations of mean.

Since the systolic blood pressure of​ 18-year-old women is normally distributed, therefore, 99.7% of 18-year-old women have a systolic blood pressure that lies within 3 standard deviations of the​ mean.

IM TIMED HELP !!! GIVING 100 POINTS !! Triangles MNP and QST are congruent. What is the measure of angle T? all interior angles
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the interior angles equal 180 and that the triangles are congruent so, 66 + 78 = 144 so then we have to subtract 180 - 144 and that gives us 36

Hope I helped :)

How do you solve this system , y=1/2x-4 and y=-2x+1 by graphing
mart [117]

Answer:

x=2

y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=\frac{1}{2}x-4 ----> equation A

y=-2x+1 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations by graphing is the intersection point both lines.

using a graphing tool

The intersection point is (2,-3)

therefore

The solution is

x=2

y=-3

Jessica is shopping for a sweater the one she wants is 30%off she estimated the sale price by multiplying the original price by
Butoxors [25]
Multiplying 0.7 by the original price will work...

If you divide the cost by 100, subtract 30 from 100, you will be left with 70% times the 1/100
70% is also expressed as 0.7, since 7/10=70/100

Hope this helps!

A. If 3x + 10º and 4x - 5° are the angle of a linear pair find their measurement.
kaheart [24]

Answer:

85° and 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear pair of angles sum to 180° , then

3x + 10 + 4x - 5 = 180

7x + 5 = 180 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

7x = 175 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 25

Then

3x + 10 = 3(25) + 10 = 75 + 10 = 85°

4x - 5 = 4(25) - 5 = 100 - 5 = 95°

an electronics store had 182 video games. if they put them on shelves with 24 on each shelf, about how many shelves would they n
GalinKa [24]
182 games 24 on each shelf basicaaly x shelves is more than or equal to 182 games 1 shelf=24 x times 24>182 divide both sides by 24 x>7 and 4/24 x has to be a whole number since you can't have fractional shelves you have to have more shelves since less shelves won't allow you to carry all of them round up 7 and something rounded u is 8

 8 shelves (if you are a weird store that has fractional shelves then the answer is 7 and 1/6 shelves)
