Answer:

By the Empirical Rule, approximately 68% of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

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

What percentage of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean?

By the Empirical Rule, approximately 68% of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean.

Ratling [72]
Hello! So, 25% of the 60 tables seat two people. To find this number, multiply 60 by 25%. 60 * 25% (0.25) is 15. 15 of them seat 2 people and 15 * 2 is 30.The other 45 tables seat 4 people. When you multiply both number, you get 180. Now, let's add the numbers together. 180 + 30 is 210. There are 210 seats in the restaurant. The answer is C: 210.

Use the Distributive Property to write each expression as an equivalent algebraic expression. (7 + a)3 Question 4 options: 3(7a)
AysviL [449]

Answer:

(B)21+3a

Step-by-step explanation:

An expression is said to be distributive when:

(a+b)c=a \cdot c+b \cdot c

Given the algebraic expression: (7 + a)3

Applying the distributive property

(7 + a)3 = 7 \cdot 3+a \cdot 3\\=21+3a

An equivalent expression is 21+3a.

The correct option is B
