Answer:

60 -76 is the range

Step-by-step explanation:

As the graph shows, if we are in 2 standard deviations of the mean, we are in (34.1 + 13.6) *2 = 47.7*2 = 95.4 %

Our mean is 68

2  standard deviations is 2 * 4 = 8

68-8 = 60

68 * 8 = 76

We need to be between 60 and 76 to have at 95% confidence interval

The empirical rule states that at 95% the measurements would be within 2 standard deviations of the mean.


You are given a mean of 68 inches and a standard deviation of 4.

2 times the standard deviation = 2 x 4 = 8

So 95% of the heights would be between 68-8 = 60 inches and 68+8 = 76 inches.

Answer:

  D.  (x-5)^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add 11 to the given equation, you get ...

  x^2 -10x = 11

Then you can add the square of half the x-coefficient to complete the square.

  x^2 -10x +25 = 11 +25

  (x -5)^2 = 36 . . . . simplify to the appropriate form

What is the nth term rule of the linear sequence below? 15 , 7 , − 1 , − 9 , − 17 , . . .
Doss [256]

You can see that you're constantly subtracting 8 to get the next number. So, we have

a_1 = 15

a_2 = a_1-8

a_3 = a_2-8 = (a_1-8)-8=a_1-2\cdot 8

a_4=a_1-3\cdot 8

a_5=a_1-4\cdot 8

So, as you can see, to get the n-th term we must subtract (n-1) times 8 from the original number.
