Answer:

73.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve for this using z score formula.

z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

x = unknown = randomly selected male's height

μ = 70.3 inches

σ = 4.1 inches

z = is not given but we are given its percentile which is 75

The z score for a 75th percentile = 0.674

Hence,

0.674 = x - 70.3/4.1

Cross Multiply

0.674 × 4.1 = x - 70.3

2.7634 = x - 70.3

x = 70.3 + 2.7634

x = 73.0634 inches

The height of the randomly selected male = 73.0634

Therefore, the height of the randomly selected male to the nearest tenth of an inch is 73.1 inches

The diameter of a circle is 10 cm what is the angle measure of an arc Pi centimeters long
vredina [299]
We know that

[length of a circumference]=2*pi*r
diameter=10 cm
r=10/2-----> 5 cm
[length of a circumference]=2*pi*5-----> 10*pi cm

if 360° (full circle) has a length of -----------> 10*pi cm
 X°---------------------------> pi cm
X=pi*360/10*pi------> 36°

the answer is 36°
