The 68 - 95 - 99.7 rule, gives the basis to solve this question.

It says that for a normal distribution 95% of the results are between the mean minus 2 standard deviations and the mean plus 2 standard deviations.

Here:
mean = 64.5 inches,
standard deviaton = 2.5 inches

mean - 2 standard deviations = 64.5 inches - 5 inches = 59.5 inches

mean +  2 standard deviations = 64.5 inches + 5 inches = 69.5 inches

Then, the answer is that 95% of women range approximately between 59.5 inches and 69.5 inches.

Picture `: what is the value of x?
Sphinxa [80]

Subtract the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. The sum of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. Write down the difference you found when subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. This is the value of X.

(3) The difference between two numbers is 8. If the larger is
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

x= 62

y= 54

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the numbers be x and y and the larger be x the smaller be y

The difference between two numbers is 8

x-y= 8-----------1

If the larger is  subtracted from three times the smaller, the difference is 100

3y-x=100------------2

from eqn 1, x= 8+y

put this in eqn 2

3y-(8+y)=100

3y-8-y=100

collect liker terms

3y-y-8=100

2y=108

y= 54

put y= 54 in eqn 1

x-y=8

x-54= 8

x= 8+54

x=62
