Answer:

Approximately 13–17 pounds ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The Empirical Rule states that almost all data lies within 3

standard deviations of the mean for a normal distribution.  

- 68% of the data falls within one standard deviation.  

- 95% of the data lies within two standard deviations.  

- 99.7% of the data lies Within three standard deviations  

- The empirical rule shows that

# 68% falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ)

# 95% within the first two standard deviations (µ ± 2σ)

# 99.7% within the first three standard deviations (µ ± 3σ).

* Lets solve the problem

- A miniature American Eskimo dog has a mean weight of 15 pounds

 with a standard deviation of 2 pounds

∴ µ = 15 and σ = 2

- The weights of miniature Eskimo dogs are normally distributed

- We need to know the range of weights would 68% of the

  dogs have

∵ 68% falls within the first standard deviation (µ ± σ)

∵ 15 - 2 = 13

∵ 15 + 2 = 17

∴ The range is approximately 13–17 pounds

At the baseball stadium, the price for popcorn is $5.88 for 3 bags. If you want to buy 7 bags of popcorn, how much will it cost?
4vir4ik [10]
The answer will be $13.72 for 7 bags of popcorn.

to find this answer, you first take 5.88 and divide it by 3 to find out how much one bag costs.

the answer to 5.88/3 is 1.96, so you multiply 1.96 by 7 to get the answer of how much 7 bags of popcorn will cost.

hope this helps!

What is the relationship between the lines with the following equations? 2x+8y=16 y=4x+7
dimulka [17.4K]
They are perpendicular because when you change 2x+8y=16 to slope intercept form it becomes y= -1/4x+2 and the slope (-1/4) is the negative reciprocal of 4, which is the slope for your other equation.

Please comment if you have any questions :)

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

B complementary angles

Step-by-step explanation:

ED is a line.

Angles EAB and DAB are a linear pair, so they are supplementary.

Angle EAB is a right angle, so angle DAB is also a right angle.

The measure of angle DAB is 90 degrees.

The sum of the measures of angles a and b is 90 degrees.

That makes <a and <b complementary angles.
