Answer:

16.68 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean , m = 15

Standard deviation, s = 2

Length of salamander that would Place it at 80% of salamander length :

P(Z ≤ x) = 0.8

Zscore equivalent to 0.8 = 0.842

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) /s

0.842 = (x - 15) / 2

1.684 = x - 15

Add 15 to both sides

1.684 + 15 = x - 15 + 15

16.684 = x

Hence, x = 16.68 cm

Can Somebody Please Help With This?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

A multiplier on the function value moves its y-coordinate farther from the x-axis by that multiplier value. It is the stretch factor. Stretch factors less than 1 cause the graph to be compressed vertically.

__

A multiplier on the independent variable means it doesn't need to be as large to give the same function value. That is, multiplication of x by a factor of k compresses the graph horizontally by that factor of k. Equivalently, it does a horizontal stretch by a factor of 1/k.
