According to a human modeling​ project, the distribution of foot lengths of women is approximately Normal with a mean of 23.3 ce

ntimeters and a standard deviation of 1.2 centimeters. In the United​ States, a​ woman's shoe size of 6 fits feet that are 22.4 centimeters long. What percentage of women in the United States will wear a size 6 or​ smaller?

Answer:

22.66% of women in the United States will wear a size 6 or​ smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 23.3, \sigma = 1.2

In the United​ States, a​ woman's shoe size of 6 fits feet that are 22.4 centimeters long. What percentage of women in the United States will wear a size 6 or​ smaller?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 22.4. So

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

Z = \frac{22.4 - 23.3}{1.2}

Z = -0.75

Z = -0.75 has a pvalue of 0.2266

22.66% of women in the United States will wear a size 6 or​ smaller

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

x = 7 ,  y= - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x = -2 - 5y ___(1)

4x= 10 - 3y ___(2)

so, now by simultaneous equations,

10 - 3y = - 2 - 5y

2y = -12

y = -6

if y = -6

then, 4x= 10 -3(-6)

4x =28

x = 7
