Answer:

The simplest way to teach middle school math scale drawings is to use real pictures to relate to each other to explain the concept. For example, scaling a red ball of 1" to a ball of 2" and so on. This will show how the ball increases by size by adding 1" each time.

Lower limit: 113.28

Upper limit: 126.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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:

$\mu = 120, \sigma = 8$
