Hey is the time of you to do your quiz
Solving proportions is simply a matter of stating the ratios as fractions, setting the two fractions equal to each other, cross-multiplying, and solving the resulting equation. You'll probably start out by just solving proportions, like this: Find the unknown value in the proportion: 2 : x = 3 : 9.
Using the empirical rule 68% would fall within one standard deviation of the mean.
The standard deviation is given as 2 inches and the mean is 49 inches.
Since it is only one standard deviation find the lower number by subtracting the standard deviation from the mean and find the higher number by adding the standard deviation to the mean.
49 - 2 = 47
49 + 2 = 51
68% would be between 47 inches and 51 inches tall.
The answer is 8.72.
sqrt(76) = 2sqrt(19)
2sqrt(19) = 8.717797887
Rounded to nearest hundredth ≈ 8.72
