Answer:

1 standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 15

About 84% of people will have IQs below 115 because:

84% = 0.84

From z - table, 0.84 corresponds to a z- score of about 0.995

0.995 = 1. 00

The z-score gives the number of standard deviations by which a raw score is above or below the average or mean value.

Raw score = 115

Mean = 100

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

Mean + number of sd's

100 + 1(sd)

100 + 1(15) = 100 + 15 = 115

We're going to use the equation given but let's first make sure we understand what the equation IS saying:

Area of a kite= [(1st diagonal) × (2nd diagonal)]/2

Now, let's find the 2 diagonals. In the case of kite shapes one of the diagonals is the line that goes from W to Y and the other is the line going from X to Z. In a kite they will always cross (no matter their lengths).

Now that we know the diagonals we can add the lengths that are given for each line to know what to multiply.

Line W to Y: 20+12= 32

Line X to Z: 12+12= 24

Now let's plug these numbers into the equation (it doesn't matter the order of the diagonals because we're just gonna be multiplying them either way!)

So...

(32×24)/2= 384 units squared (because it is area)

Schach [20]

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation: You need to divide 7 by 1/4. Whenever you divide fractions you keep the first number as it is, change the sign to multiplication and write the reciprocal of the second fraction which is you have to flip the fraction. It is going to be 7 times 4/1. Which is 28/1 which is 28.
