Answer:
a) P(Y > 76) = 0.0122
b) i) P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015
ii) P(Y > 76) = 0.0007
Step-by-step explanation:
Given - The heights of men in a certain population follow a normal distribution with mean 69.7 inches and standard deviation 2.8 inches.
To find - (a) If a man is chosen at random from the population, find
the probability that he will be more than 76 inches tall.
(b) If two men are chosen at random from the population, find
the probability that
(i) both of them will be more than 76 inches tall;
(ii) their mean height will be more than 76 inches.
Proof -
a)
P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)
= P(
) >
)
= P(Z >
)
= P(Z >
)
= P(Z > 2.25)
= 1 - P(Z ≤ 2.25)
= 0.0122
⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0122
b)
(i)
P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = (0.0122)²
= 0.00015
⇒P(both of them will be more than 76 inches tall) = 0.00015
(ii)
Given that,
Mean = 69.7,
= 1.979899,
Now,
P(Y > 76) = P(Y - mean > 76 - mean)
= P(
)) >
)
= P(Z >
)
= P(Z >
))
= P(Z > 3.182)
= 1 - P(Z ≤ 3.182)
= 0.0007
⇒P(Y > 76) = 0.0007
Answer:
97 8/10
Explanation:
If you weighed 97.8 pounds on saturn as a decimal, you would take the whole number 97. Now you're left with the ".8" = ".80" this decimal would be 8/10. Now you put them together to create 97 and 8/10.
Answer:
x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
- 15/3 = x + 1
- x = 1 + 15/3
- x = 3/3 + 15/3
- x = 18/3
x = - 18/3
x = - 6
Well to divide 2 fraction you first have to find a least common number between the 2 bottom numbers in the fractions, we know automaticall that 15 fits in both the 3 and the 5. now u have to find out what to multiply by each number to get 15, for example what number do you multiply by 3 to get 15?? well it will be 5, so go ahead and multiply it by the fraction (note that what you do in the bottom you have to do in the top) this will give you 10/15, because I multiplied the top and bottom number by 5... lets try the other one what number do you multiply by 5 to get 15?? well it will be 3 so go ahead and multiply that to get 12/15.. now add the top numbers (note that the bottoms always stay the same, you never add or subtract them) when you do you will get 22/15, now you have to see if you can simplify it any further in this case you can't so your final answer is 22/15
Hope this helps
