4/3 because 3/3 is 1 and 4/3 is 1 1/3
<span>If QRST is a rectangle with QT = 50 and RS = 4x + 8, find x.
.
QT = RS (opposite sides of a rectangle are equal)
50 = 4x + 8
42 = 4x
10.5 = x</span>
Answer:
The approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean is 99.7%.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 247.3 and a standard deviation of 60.7.
Let X = <em>t</em><u><em>he blood platelet counts of a group of women</em></u>
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z =
~ N(0,1)
where,
= population mean = 247.3
= standard deviation = 60.7
Now, according to the empirical rule;
- 68% of the data values lie within one standard deviation of the mean.
- 95% of the data values lie within two standard deviations of the mean.
- 99.7% of the data values lie within three standard deviations of the mean.
Since it is stated that we have to calculate the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 65.2 and 429.4, i.e;
z-score for 65.2 = 
=
= -3
z-score for 429.4 = 
=
= 3
So, it means that the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean is 99.7%.
To do these problems, you plug in the ‘n’ value given into the equation.
