Answer:

x = -6 and -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 6x + 7

Factorise- find two numbers that multiply to be 6 and add to be 7: 6 and 1

(x+6)(x+1)

Set each expression equal to 0 and solve

x + 6 = 0 -> x = -6

x + 1 = 0 -> x = -1

A sample of men's heights was taken and the mean was 68.8 inches. The standard deviation is 2.8 inches. What percent of the men

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

87.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean= 68.8 inches

Standard deviation= 2.8 inches

Now, finding the percent of the men in the sample were greater than 72 inches.

We know, z-score= $\frac{x-mean}{standard\ deviation}$

z-score= $\frac{72-68.8}{2.8}$

⇒ z-score= $\frac{3.2}{2.8} = 1.14$

∴ z-score= 1.14

Next, using normal distribution table to find percentage.

Coverting 0.8729 into percentage= $0.8729\times 100$

We get the percentage as 87.29%

Hence, 87.29% of the men in the sample were greater than 72 inches.
