Answer:
a) 229 and 305 days
b) 229 days or less
c) 305 days or more
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule(68-95-99.7 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 = 267
Standard deviation = 19
(a) Between what values do the lengths of the middle 95% of all pregnancies fall?_____________and___________days
By the Empirical rule, 95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
to
267 + 2*19 = 305 days
(b) How short are the shortest 2.5% of all pregnancies?______days or less
95% of all pregnancies fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 5% are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean. Since the distribution is symmetric, 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(shortest 2.5%) and 2.5% is more than 2 standard deviations above the mean(longest 2.5%). So
267 - 2*19 = 229 days
c) How long do the longest 2.5% of pregnancies last?________days or more
Explanation in b)
267 + 2*19 = 305 days

Answer:
11 hours babysitting
7 hours music lesson
Step-by-step explanation:
(11*5) + (7*12) = 139
For the full circle, Area = pi(r)^2
pi x 1^2 = pi
Semi circle = pi/2 = 1.57 square feet
Assume that the age of Alicia is x and that of Amy is y
Twice the age of Alicia = 27
Eight years older means we will add 8
Therefore, the statement "<span>Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age" can be represented as follows:
y = 8 + 2x (equation)
The sum of their ages is less than 32 can be represented as:
x + y < 32 which can also be written as y < 32-x (inequality)
