Find the total ° of the shape.
(5-2) x 180°= 540°

x+21°+x = 540°-105°-154°-88°
2x+21° = 193°
2x = 193°-21°
2x = 172°
x = 172° ÷ 2

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given choices:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using chebyshev's theorem :

$\to P(|(x-\mu)|\leq k \sigma)\geq 1- \frac{1}{k^2}\\\\here \\ \to \mu=28.75\\\\ \to \sigma=4.44$

In point a)

$\to |(x-\mu)|= |20.17-28.75|=8.58 and \sigma=4.44 \\\\so, \\k= \frac{ |(x-\mu)| }{\sigma}$

$= \frac{8.58}{4.44} \\\\ =1.9 \\\\ =2$

$value= (1- \frac{1}{k^2}) \times 100 \% =75\%$

In point b)

$\to (1- \frac{1}{k^2}) \times 100 \% =84\% \\\\\to (1- \frac{1}{k^2})=0.84 \\\\\to \frac{1}{k^2} =0.16 \\\\\to \frac{1}{k}=0.4\\\\ \to k=2.5 \\\\\to |(x-\mu)| \leq k \sigma \\\\= |(x-\mu)|\leq 2.5 \times 4.44 \\\\ = |(x-\mu)|\leq 1.11 \\\\ = (28.75\pm 11.1) \\\\\to \text{fares lies between}(17.65,39.85)$
