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

Which of these intervals has an average rate of change that is less than 1/4
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Interval [b,c] and interval [c,d]

Step-by-step explanation:

a(-5,0)

b(-1,2)

c(4,3)

d(11,4)

The average rate of change is the the total rise over the total run.

The Rise means the vertical increase and the Run means horizontal incease.

For interval [a,b]

rate of change is \dfrac{2-0}{-1-(-5)}=\dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}

For [b,c]

\frac{3-2}{4-(-1)}=\frac{1}{5}

For [c,d]

\dfrac{4-3}{11-4}=\dfrac{1}{7}

pogonyaev

Answer:

15.63 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the ice cube is a perfect cube, then all of the sides are equal. There for, each side is 2.5 cm.

v = l*w*h

v = 2.5 * 2.5 * 2.5

v = 6.25 * 2.5

v = 15.625 cm^3
