What percentage of the data falls outside 1 standard deviation of the mean?

1 answer:

3 0

We all know about the bell curve i.e. normal distribution curve. It is centered about the mean and spread equally on each side.

We describe the area of the curve with the help of standard deviations.

With in 1 standard deviation about the mean i.e. from -1 s.d. (left of mean) to +1 s.d. (right of mean), it covers 68% of the total area of curve.

So, the data that falls outside 1 standard deviation of the mean would be equal to (100% - 68%) i.e. 32%.

So, 32% is the final answer.

What are the possible values of x if (4x - 5)2 = 49? Check all that apply. uw we we

kogti [31]

Answer:

x = - $\frac{1}{2}$ , x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(4x - 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )

4x - 5 = ± $\sqrt{49}$ = ± 7 ( add 5 to both sides )

4x = 5 ± 7, thus

4x = 5 - 7 = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = $\frac{-2}{4}$ = - $\frac{1}{2}$

4x = 5 + 7 = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 3

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.

x = - $\frac{1}{2}$

left side = (- 2 - 5)² = (- 7)² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution

x = 3

left side = (12 - 5)² = 7² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution

Graph y > 1 -3x A B C Or D

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

D (You got it right.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever the sign is facing them we will always shade the top. Then we have to find the slope which in this case would be 3(the number that is being multiplied by x. Lastly is the sign does not have a line under it or an equal sign. it won't be a straight line it will have little gaps.

Please HELP!!!!!!!!!

DaniilM [7]

Calculate the sum

5x - 10 + 7 = 65 - 20x + 32

Move terms

5x - 3 = 97 - 20x

Collect the like terms and calculate

5x + 20x = 97 +3

Divide both sides by 25

25x = 100

I skipped some steps because it would be too long :/

Multiply parenthesis by 8

20x>8(4x - 5) -20

Calculate

20x>32x - 40 - 20

Move variable to the left

20x>32x-60

Collect like terms

20x - 32x > -60

Divide both sides by -12

-12x>-60

Factor and add steps please 81u^6+192

attashe74 [19]

ANSWER : (9u - 8)2

STEPS:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 81 • 64 = 5184

Step-2 : Find two factors of 5184 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -144 .

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -72 and -72
81u2 - 72u - 72u - 64

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
9u • (9u-8)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(9u-8) • (9u-8)
Which is the desired factorization
