Answer:

218 and 314 days

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 = 266

Standard deviation = 16

About 99.7% of all pregnancies last between what interval?

Within 3 standard deviations of the mean. So

266 - 3*16 = 218 days

266 + 3*16 = 314 days

218 and 314 days

Find the perimeter of the quadrilateral.
levacccp [35]

<em><u>Question:</u></em>

Find the perimeter of the quadrilateral. if x = 2 the perimeter is ___ inched.

The complete figure of this question is attached below

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

<h3>The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 129 inches</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

The complete figure of this question is attached below

Given that, a quadrilateral with,

Side lengths are:

4x^2 + 8x\ inches \\\\3x^2-5x+20\ inches \\\\7x + 30\ inches \\\\31\ inches

The values of the side lengths when x = 2 are

(4x^2+8x)=(4\times 2^2+8\times 2)=(4\times 4+16)=16+16=32\ inch\\\\(3x^2-5x+20)=(3\times 2^2-5\times 2+20)=(3\times 4-10+20)=12+10=22\ inch\\\\(7x+30)=(7\times 2+30)=14+30=44\ inch

Perimeter of a quadrilateral = Sum of its sides

Perimeter of given quadrilateral = 32 + 22 + 44 + 31 = 129 inches

Thus perimeter of the quadrilateral is 129 inches
