Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(a) 2%
Step-by-step explanation:
A score of 60 is 2 standard deviations below the mean (80 -2·10 = 60). The empirical rule tells you that 95% of the distribution is within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The remaining 5% is split evenly between those that are more than 2 SD above the mean and those that are more than 2 SD below the mean.
That tells you the percentage who failed is about 2.5%. The best answer choice is 2%.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The empirical rule is a little bit sloppy, but it gets you in the ballpark. The actual percentage is closer to 2.275%.
Answer:
{8 cm, 15 cm, 17 cm}
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The length sides of a right triangle must satisfy the Pythagoras Theorem
so

where
c is the greater side (the hypotenuse)
a and b are the legs (perpendicular sides)
<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>
case 1) we have
{5 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm}
substitute in the formula

----> is not true
therefore
Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths
case 2) we have
{6 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm}
substitute in the formula

----> is not true
therefore
Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths
case 3) we have
{5 cm, 13 cm, 15 cm}
substitute in the formula

----> is not true
therefore
Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths
case 4) we have
{8 cm, 15 cm, 17 cm}
substitute in the formula

----> is true
therefore
Sean can make a right triangle with this set of lengths
Hi, i think the answer 20/3 hope this helped :D
