Answer:
Top 3%: 4.934 cm
Bottom 3%: 4.746 cm
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:

Top 3%
Value of Z when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.03 = 0.97. So X when Z = 1.88.




Bottom 3%
Value of Z when Z has a pvalue of 0.03. So X when Z = -1.88.




Answer:
y=−x/2+2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=2x−5.
The slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m=−12.
So, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=−x/2+a.
To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point: 3=(−12)⋅(−2)+a.
Thus, a=2.
Therefore, the equation of the line is y=−x/2+2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
100,000 doubles to 200,000 in 80 years then 400,000 in 80 more years
You can simplify the fraction to get 2/5. If you convert this into a decimal you will get 0.4, so D is your answer.
The estimate is about 15.60
