Answer:
15.87% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds
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:

What is the probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds?
This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 190 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 185. So
X = 190



has a pvalue of 0.8944
X = 185



has a pvalue of 0.7357
0.8944 - 0.7357 = 0.1587
15.87% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
this is clearly not a linear sequence (the terms don't have the same difference).
so, it has to be a geometric sequence.
the common ratio is r.
s2 = s1 × r
16 = 64 × r
r = 16/64 = 1/4
control :
s3 = s2×r
4 = 16 × 1/4 = 4
correct.
It can tell you the general pattern or that it is far from the other points in scatter plot.
