Answer:
c) at most 11.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the data that is 97 ± 12, with 97 being the mean and 12 the standard deviation.
Now, the percentage of people who reached them for less than 73 dollars, if it were a normal distribution:
z = (73 - 97) / 12 = - 2
so it would be, a probability of 0.0228 or 0.228%.
But we don't know what distribution it has, but we can get an idea.
A and D discarded, as they are very high values, and 73 is well below the average.
B) is still a very high value.
Therefore the answer is C, at most 11.1%
Sorry I was wrong, I didn’t mean to get it wrong.
Let the second side be x
then,
first side = twice the length of the second side
= 2x
third side = 20 feet less than three times the second side
3 (second side ) - 20
= 3 (2x) -20
= 6x - 20
perimete of a triangle = sum of all sides,
substitute the values we know,
and you'll be left with this equation
106 = x + 2x + 6x - 20
106+ 20 = 9x
126 = 9x
126/9 = x
14 = x
so,
measure of second side = x = 14 feet
measure of first side = 2x = 2 (14) = 28 feet
measure of thurd side = 6x - 20 = 6 (14)-20 = 84- 20 = 64 feet.
