Answer:

a) 95% of people has an IQ score between 76 and 124​.

b) 0.3% of people has an IQ score less than 64 or greater than 136​.

c) 0.15% of people has an IQ score greater than 136

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 12

​(a) What percentage of people has an IQ score between 76 and 124​? ​

76 = 100 - 2*12

124 = 100 + 2*12

So within 2 standard deviations of the mean, and the percentage is 95%.

(b) What percentage of people has an IQ score less than 64 or greater than 136​?

64 = 100 - 3*12

136 = 100 + 3*12

99.7% of people has scores between 64 and 136. So 100 - 99.7 = 0.3% of people has an IQ score less than 64 or greater than 136​.

​(c) What percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 136​?

0.3% of people has an IQ score less than 64 or greater than 136​.

Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 0.3%/2 = 0.15% are below 64 are 0.15% are above 136.

When constructing an angle bisector, why must the arcs intersect?
Black_prince [1.1K]
<span>The arcs must intersect because the point at which the arcs intersect forms the halfway point of the angle; if they don’t intersect, the angle will not be bisected. </span>

15=x/4 - 3 how do i solve
zhuklara [117]

Answer: the answer is x=72

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: simplify both sides we know 15=x/4 -3 (the x holds a invisible 1)

the equation should look something Like: 15=1/4x-3 then FLIP the equation such as:

1/4x-3=15 then add 3 on both sides so 15+3=18

step 2: our equation is now 1/4x=18  (we see 4 is being divided the opposite of division is multiply) therefor multiply the 18 with 4

18*4=72 which means x=72
