Answer:

C. 45 and 141 seconds

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 = 93 seconds

Standard deviation = 16 seconds

99.7% of running times are approximately between:

By the Empirical rule, within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so between 3 standard deviations below the mean and 3 standard deviations above the mean

3 stnadard deviations below the mean

93 - 3*16 = 45 seconds

3 standard deviations above the mean

93 + 3*16 = 141 seconds

The correct answer is:

C. 45 and 141 seconds

Deffense [45]
5x - 3y = 15

5x - <u>5x</u> -3y = <u>- 5x</u> + 15

<u>-3y</u> = <u>-5x</u> + 15

3y = 5x - 15

divide all of them by 3...

y = 5/3 - 5
