Answer:

(C) 350 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From available information

Mean = 790

1 running back = 1637 yards

Standard deviation above mean = 2.42

Using formula

z =( x - mean)/sd

2.42 = (1637-790)/sd

2.42 = 847/sd

We cross multiply

2.42sd = 847

Divide through by 2.42

Sd = 847/2.42

Sd = standard deviation = 350

So our answer is 350 and therefore option c.

How can you use a formula for one measurement to write a formula for a different measurement?
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Write the formula for one measurement, then solve the formula for the different measurement you want to find and use this new formula to find that measurement.

Step-by-step explanation:

 We can understand this through an example.

If we need to find the lenght of a rectangle whose width is 4 feet and whose perimeter is 28 feet, we can use a formula for one measurement to write a formula for a different measurement:

 - We need to write the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P=2l+2w

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

- Since we know the width and the perimeter of the rectangle and we need to find the lenght, we can solve for "l":

P=2l+2w\\\\P-2w=2l\\\\l=\frac{P-2w}{2}

Now we get a new formula for calculate a differente measurement (the lenght of the rectangle).

- Substituting values, we get:

l=\frac{28ft-2(4ft)}{2}=10\ ft
