Answer:
a) P(Y > 76) = 0.0122
b) i) P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015
ii) P(Y > 76) = 0.0007
Step-by-step explanation:
Given - The heights of men in a certain population follow a normal distribution with mean 69.7 inches and standard deviation 2.8 inches.
To find - (a) If a man is chosen at random from the population, find
the probability that he will be more than 76 inches tall.
(b) If two men are chosen at random from the population, find
the probability that
(i) both of them will be more than 76 inches tall;
(ii) their mean height will be more than 76 inches.
Proof -
a)
P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)
= P( 
) > 
)
= P(Z > )
= P(Z > 
)
= P(Z > 2.25)
= 1 - P(Z ≤ 2.25)
= 0.0122
⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0122
b)
(i)
P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = (0.0122)²
= 0.00015
⇒P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015
(ii)
Given that,
Mean = 69.7,
= 1.979899,
Now,
P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)
= P( 
)) > 
)
= P(Z > )
= P(Z > 
))
= P(Z > 3.182)
= 1 - P(Z ≤ 3.182)
= 0.0007
⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0007

Answer:
- x ≤ 4
- x > 10
- x ≤ -7
Step-by-step explanation:
We're guessing you want to solve for x in each case. You do this in basically the same way you would solve an equation.
1. 3x +2 ≤ 14
3x ≤ 12 . . . . . subtract 2
x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . divide by 3
__
2. -5 +2x > 15
2x > 20 . . . . . . add 5
x > 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 2
__
3. -2x +4 ≥ 18
4 ≥ 18 +2x . . . . . add 2x
-14 ≥ 2x . . . . . . . subtract 18
-7 ≥ x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

<em>Additional comment</em>
The statement above that the same methods for solving apply to both equations and inequalities has an exception. The exception is that some operations reverse the order of numbers, so make the inequality symbol reverse. The usual operations we're concerned with are <em>multiplication and division by a negative number</em>: -2 < -1; 2 > 1, for example. There are other such operations, but they tend to be used more rarely for inequalities.
You will note that we avoided division by -2 in the solution of the third inequality by adding 2x to both sides, effectively giving the variable term a positive coefficient. You will notice that also changes its relation to the inequality symbol, just as if we had left the term where it was and reversed the symbol: -2x ≥ 14 ⇔ -14 ≥ 2x ⇔ x ≤ -7 ⇔ -7 ≥ x

740% written as a decimal is 7.4 as a mixed number it would be 7 4/10 or simplified it would be 7 2/5
0.584 has an 8 in the hundredths place, which is five or above, so we round up to
