Answer:

c. 3.6 and 10.4 hrs

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 deviations of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean 7, standard deviation 1.7.

For about 95% of students, nightly amount of sleep is between

7 - 2*1.7 = 7 - 3.4 = 3.6 hours

7 + 2*1.7 = 7 + 3.4 = 10.4 hours

So the correct answer is:

c. 3.6 and 10.4 hrs

How do you find percent of a number mentally
olga55 [171]
It isn't easy really but you can always divide the number out. For example 50% of 200 is 100 by dividing 200 by 2 or 25% of 100 is 25 by dividing 100 by 4 since 25% is equivalent to 1/4

R-7=7 add the seven from both sides, leaving the r alone, because this is what you are trying to find. Thus the answer is r=14.

Find the volume of this cone.<br> Use 3 for TT.<br> 5in<br> Tr2h<br> 3<br> 8in<br> V<br> V ~ [?]in3
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

50 in ^3

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 1/3 pi r^2 h

We know that pi = 3  

the diameter is 5 so the radius is 1/2 the diameter of 5/2 = 2.5

The height is 8

V = 1/3 ( 3) ( 2.5)^2 ( 8)

V = 50 in ^3

How tall is a stack of cube shaped blocks whose volumes are 375 cube inches, 648 cube inches, and 1029 cube inches?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

L = 25.959 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of first cube = 375 inch³

Volume of second cube = 648 inch³

Volume of third cube = 1029 inch³

We need to find the length of the stack of the cube shaped block.

We know that,

The volume of a cube = a³ (a is side of a cube)

a_1=\sqrt[3]{375} \\\\=7.211\ \text{inches}

a_2=\sqrt[3]{648 } \\\\=8.653\ \text{inches}

a_3=\sqrt[3]{1029}  \\\\=10.095\ \text{inches}

Hence, the total length of the stack is :

L = 7.211 + 8.653 + 10.095

= 25.959 inches

Hence, this is the required solution.
