Answer:
Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

a. Highest 20 percent
At least X
100-20 = 80
So X is the 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.842.




Weights of at least 340.1 are in the highest 20%.

Answer:
11.18
Step by Step Explanation:
Subtract 9.5 from 21.23
Start at +1 on the x axis and then use 3/1 for rise over run. So you will start at +1 and then from that point rise 3 run 1
For each, you'll use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
For function f, you'll use the two points (1,6) and (2,12) since x ranges from x = 1 to x = 2 for function f
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (12-6)/(2-1)
m = 6/1
m = 6
-------------------------------------------
For function g, you'll use (2,4) and (3,20)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (20-4)/(3-2)
m = 16/1
m = 16
-------------------------------------------
For function h, you'll use (0,-6) and (2,-18). The y coordinates can be found by plugging in x = 0 and x = 2 respectively into h(x)
The slope through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-18-(-6))/(2-0)
m = (-18+6)/(2-0)
m = (-12)/(2)
m = -6
-------------------------------------------
The order from left to right is: h, f, g
