Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual height of the statue = 40 ft

Converting to in,

= 40 ft * 12 in/1 ft

= 480 in.

Scaled height of the statue = 8 in

= 480/8

= 60 in scale

Therefore, scale is 60 in to 1 in

= 5 ft to 1 in.

Answer:

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

from length conversions 1ft = 12 inches

On the scale model, the height of the statue is 8 inches. The actual height is 40 ft.

40ft = 40*12 inches =480 inches

divide 480 by 8 inches = 480/8 =60

the height of the statue was scaled down using;

60 inches represents 1 inch

convert 60 inches to ft by dividing by 12.   60/12 =5ft  . Thus

5ft  represents 1 inch

The scale is 5ft represents 1 inch

a study studied the birth weights of 1,999 babies born in the United States. The mean weight was 3234 grams with a standard devi
Aleks [24]

Answer:

1899

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 3234

Standard deviation = 871

Percentage of newborns who weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams:

1492 = 3234 - 2*871

So 1492 is two standard deviations below the mean.

4976 = 3234 + 2*871

So 4976 is two standard deviations above the mean.

By the Empirical Rule, 95% of newborns weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams.

Out of 1999:

0.95*1999 = 1899

So the answer is 1899
