Answer:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = 79.052%f using Standard Normal Distribution Tables

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu = 14, SD = 1.2 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=17: z(17) = (17-14)/1.2 gives us z(17) = 2.5

z for x=13: z(13) = (13-14)/1.2 gives us z(13) = -0.83

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables we find the probabilities as under:

P(17) using z(17) = 2.5 gives us P(17) = 99.379%

Similarly we have:

P(13) using z(13) = -0.83 gives us P(13) = 20.327%

Finally in order to find out the probability between 17 & 13 years we have:

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = P(17) - P(13) = 99.379% - 20.327% = 79.052%

The standard normal distribution table is being attached for yours easiness.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(17) = norm.dist(17,14,1.2,1)

P(13) = norm.dist(13,14,1.2,1)

Percentage of armadillos between 13 and 17 years = { P(17) - P(13) } * 100

76 is 80% of what number?
vfiekz [6]
76 is 80% of 95 and I'll even explain.
80/100 = 76/x from this point you cross multiply which gives you 80x = 76(100) you multiply 76 by 100 and get 7600 so then the equation look like this 80x = 7600 then divide by 80 on both sides and get the answer of x = 95 which is basically your answer I hope this helps :)

Hi there..

5/13 t = -9
Solve for T
t = 5/13 * (-9)
t= -177/5
