Answer:

a) z_man = 2.18

b) 98.5% of men are shorter

c) z_woman = 2.60

e) a 5 ft 11" American woman is relatively taller than a 6 ft 3" American man because the percentage of women shorter than her is 99.5% while the percentage of men shorter than him is 98.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use: z-score = (x - μ)/σ

Convert the height to inches: x_man = 6 ft 3 in. = 6(12) + 3 = 75 in.

z_man = (75 - 69.2)/2.66 = 2.18  -->  from a z-table --> .9854(100) = 98.54%

Convert the height to inches: x_woman = 5 ft 11 in. = 5(12) + 11 = 71 in.

z_woman = (71 - 64.3)/2.58 = 2.60 --> from a z-table --> .9953(100) = 99.53%

In the xy- plane, the graph of the equation y + 3x + 5 is a line that intersects the y-axis at (0,b) what is the value of b?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

b=5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

y=3x+5

To find the point where this line intersect the y-axis, we put x=0 into the given equation.

When x=0, we have y=3(0)+5.

This implies that; y=5.

The y-intercept is (0,5).

Comparing (0,5) to (0,b), we can conclude that; b=5

y = x2 − 6x 8 2y x = 4 the pair of points representing the solution set of this system of equations is___ and ___?
mariarad [96]
Some operators are missing.
If the right equations are y = x^2 -6x +8 and 2y + x =4
This is the solution

2y + x = 4
2y = -x +4
y = -x/2 + 2

y = x^2 -6x + 8 = -x/2 + 2

2x^2 - 12x + 16 = -x + 4
2x^2 -11x +12 = 0

Factor

(x-4)(2x-3)=0

x= 4 and x =3/2

y = -x/2 +2
 
y = -4/2 + 2 = 0
y = - (3/2)/2 + 2 = -3/4 + 2 = 5/4

Answer (4,0) and (3/2, 5/4)
