Answer:
34% of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 47 and 52
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 52
Standard deviation = 5
Between 47 and 52:
52 is the mean and 47 is one standard deviation below the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Since the normal distribution is symmetric, of those, 34% are within 1 standard deviation below the mean and the mean(47 and 52) and 34% are within the mean and one standard deviation above the mean(52 and 57).
So
34% of lightbulb replacement requests numbering between 47 and 52
Answer:
The sum of an even number plus an odd number is odd.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of an even number and an odd number is odd.
For example:
2+3=5
11+10=21
51+32=83
The end digit of an even number is always 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8
The end digit of an odd number is 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.
So if we add only the end digit of an even and an odd number we can find no combination that can give end digit 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8(i.e even).
Hence, the sum of an even number plus an odd number is odd.
