Iq scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 what is the probability that a randomly sel

ected person has an iq above 126

So we are given the mean and the s.d.. The mean is 100 and the sd is 15 and we are trying the select a random person who has an I.Q. of over 126. So our first step is to use our z-score equation:

z = x - mean/s.d.

where x is our I.Q. we are looking for

So we plug in our numbers and we get:

126-100/15 = 1.73333

Next we look at our z-score table for our P-value and I got 0.9582

Since we are looking for a person who has an I.Q. higher than 126, we do 1 - P. So we get

1 - 0.9582 = 0.0418

Since they are asking for the probability, we multiply our P-value by 100, and we get 

0.0418 * 100 = 4.18%

And our answer is

4.18% that a randomly selected person has an I.Q. above 126
Hopes this helps!

Find rhe volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 10 inches and a height of 20 inches
IrinaK [193]
Since the diameter of the cylinder is 10, its radius is half that, or 5, thus

\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\
V=\pi r^2 h~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
h=height\\
-----\\
r=5\\
h=20
\end{cases}\implies V=\pi (5)^2(20)

Ho do you get the Surface Area of this shape?
blsea [12.9K]
This solid object contains 8 sides.

The side that is facing you has a surface area:

64f{ t }^{ 2 }+84f{ t }^{ 2 }=148f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side exactly opposite this one has the same surface area - 2 sides with this surface area in total.

The bottom side has a surface area:

84f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side to your right has a surface area:

84f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side to your left has a surface area:

48f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side to your top left has a surface area:

48f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side beside the side to the top left has a surface area:

36f{ t }^{ 2 }

The side at the very top has a surface area:

36f{ t }^{ 2 }

Combined, the surface area is:

S=2\cdot 148f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 84f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 48f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 36f{ t }^{ 2 }

\\ \\ =296f{ t }^{ 2 }+168f{ t }^{ 2 }+96f{ t }^{ 2 }+72f{ t }^{ 2 }\\ \\ =632f{ t }^{ 2 }

Therefore the answer is: C

4/5-11/15 can you help me?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

\frac{1}{15} is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{4}{5} - \frac{11}{15}

Change the denominators to 15.

\frac{12}{15} - \frac{11}{15}

12 - 11 = 1.

= \frac{1}{15}
