The following are questions from a self-quiz.According to some study, the height for Northern European adult males is normally d

istributed with an average of 181 centimeter and a standard deviation of 7.3 centimeter. Suppose such an adult male is randomly chosen. Let X be height of that person. The next 2 questions correspond to this information. The answer may be rounded up to 3 decimal places of the actual value.a) The probability that the person is between 160 and 170 centimeters isb) The probability that the person is higher than 190 centimeter is

Answer:

a) 0.064

b) 0.109

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 181 centimeter

Standard Deviation, σ = 7.3 centimeter

We are given that the distribution of height for Northern European adult males is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

a) P(person is between 160 and 170 centimeters)

P(160 \leq x \leq 170) = P(\displaystyle\frac{160 - 181}{7.3} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{170-181}{7.3}) = P(-2.8767 \leq z \leq -1.506)\\\\= P(z \leq -1.506) - P(z < -2.8767)\\= 0.066 -0.002 = 0.064 = 6.4\%

b) P(person is higher than 190 centimeter)

P(x > 190)

P( x > 190) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{190 - 181}{7.3}) = P(z > 1.2328)

= 1 - P(z \leq 1.2328)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

P(x > 190) = 1 - 0.891 = 0.109 = 10.9\%

8(7n-2) -6(7n+1)<br><br> Explain please
Verizon [17]

Answer:

<h2>8(7n - 2) - 6(7n + 1) = 14n - 22</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

8(7n - 2) - 6(7n + 1)

use the distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

= 8 · 7n + 8 · (-2) + (-6) · 7n + (-6) · 1

= 56n - 16 - 42n - 6

combine like terms

= (56n - 42n) + (-16 - 6)

= 14n - 22

andrey2020 [161]

you start with 60 and 15 of them like green.

you need to put 15 over 60 because that is how many people that like green.

15/60.... then you need to simplify

which would be 1/4
