Answer:

6.68% or 0.0668

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean sheet length (μ) = 30.05 inches

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.2 inches

In a normal distribution, for any length X, the z-score is determined by the following expression:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

For X = 29.75, the z-score is:

z=\frac{29.75-30.05}{0.2}\\z=-1.5

A z-score of -1.5 corresponds to the 6.68th percentile of a normal distribution.

Therefore, the probability that a sheet selected at random will be less than 29.75 inches long is 6.68%.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

Blake will jog 12 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Allison : Blake = 3 : 2

If they keep jogging at the same rate, how many blocks will Blake jog if Allison jogs 18 blocks?

Allison : Blake = 18 : x

Equate the ratios

3 : 2 = 18 : x

3/2 = 18/x

Cross multiply

3 * x = 2 * 18

3x = 36

Divide both sides by 3

x = 36 / 3

= 12

x = 12

Blake will jog 12 blocks
