Answer:

PR = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

P-----------Q-----------R----------S

ratio

4:2:1

PS = 14

add the ration = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7

14 / 7 = 2

PQ at 4 x 2 = 8

QR at 2 x 2 = 4

RS at 1 x 2 =  2

              ------------

                   14

PR = PQ + QR

PR = 8 + 4

PR = 12

The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately Normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches. Men the same
masha68 [24]

Answer: The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y area the random variable that represents the heights of women and men.

Given : The heights of women aged 20 to 29 are approximately Normal with mean 64 inches and standard deviation 2.7 inches.

i.e. \mu_1 = 64   \sigma_1=2.7

Since , z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Then, z-score corresponds to  a woman 6 feet tall (i.e. x=72 inches).

[∵  1 foot = 12 inches , 6 feet = 6(12)=72 inches]

z=\dfrac{72-64}{2.7}=2.96296296\approx2.96

Men the same age have mean height 69.3 inches with standard deviation 2.8 inches.

i.e. \mu_2 = 69.3   \sigma_2=2.8

Then, z-score corresponds to a man 5'10" tall (i.e. y =70 inches).

[∵  1 foot = 12 inches , 5 feet 10 inches= 5(12)+10=70 inches]

z=\dfrac{70-69.3}{2.8}=0.25

∴ The z-scores for a woman 6 feet tall is 2.96 and the z-scores for a a man 5'10" tall is 0.25.
