Probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 137 is 0.9452

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u>Step 1: </u>

Sketch the curve.

The probability that X<137 is equal to the blue area under the curve.

<u>Step 2: </u>

Since μ=105 and σ=20 we have:

P ( X<137 )=P ( X−μ<137−105 )= P(X−μ/ σ< 137−105/20 )

Since x−μ/σ=Z and 137−105/20=1.6 we have:

P (X<137)=P (Z<1.6)

<u>Step 3: </u>

Use the standard normal table to conclude that:

P (Z<1.6)=0.9452

∴ probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ less than 137 is 0.9452.

X = 3y - 6
Vlad1618 [11]
X = 3y - 6....so sub 3y - 6 in for x in the other equation

2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
6y - 12 - 4y = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
y = 20/2
y = 10

x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x = 24

solution is (24,10)

In which of these examples, binomial distribution can be used? a) Finding the best month to launch a new product b) Accurately p
irina1246 [14]

Answer: The answer is (d) Accurately predicting who will be promoted at work.


Step-by-step explanation:  We are given four options and asked in which of these four, we can use binomial distribution.

Binomial distribution is used in that experiments where there are only two outcomes, either success or failure.

In the given four options, (a), (c) and (d) are incorrect, because the number of outcomes are not fixed there and hence we cannot use binomial distribution.

Only option (b) will serve our purpose, as we are accurately predicting who is getting promoted at work.

Thus, the correct option is (b).

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154m.Its length is 2m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and bread
TiliK225 [7]

P = 154\\a = 2b + 2

a = ?; b = ?

P = 2(a + b) = 2(2b + 2 + b) = 2(3b + 2) = 6b + 4

154 = 6b + 4\\6b = 154 - 4\\6b = 150\\b = 150 : 6\\b = 25

a = 2b + 2 = 2 * 25 + 2 = 50 + 2 = 52

Answer: 25 and 52 m.
