Answer:
3) (98.08, 124.16)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 111.12
Standard deviation = 13.04
Calculate an interval that is symmetric around the mean such that it contains approximately 68% of fines.
68% of the fines are within 1 standard deviation of the mean speed. So
From 111.12 - 13.04 = 98.08 to 111.12 + 13.04 = 124.16
The interval notation in the smallest value before the highest value.
So the correct answer is:
3) (98.08, 124.16)
To find Matthew's hourly rate, you would divide $102 by 8.5. His hourly rate is $12. Then multiply by 19 hours, and the answer is $228.
The missing number is the square-root of the constant term on the left-hand-side, which equals sqrt(1/16)=1/sqrt(16)=1/4.
Check:
(x+1/4)^2=x^2+2*(1/4)x+(1/4)^2=x^2+x/2+1/16. ok
Answer: x= 1/4
