Answer:
x=46/5
Cross multiply, distribute the denominator, simplify by combining like terms, and isolate x.
first step is to subtract 21 from both sides
2m+21-21=3-21
2m=-18
2m/2 and -18/2
m=-9
So the final answer is m=-9 (negative nine equals m)
Answer:
68 %
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have our mean x = 250 and standard deviation σ = 20, we need to find how many standard deviations away the values 230 and 270 are.
Note x - σ = 250 - 20 = 230 and x + σ = 250 + 20 = 270
The values are one standard deviation away.
So, the values between 230 and 270 lie in the range x - σ to x + σ.
Since the batting averages are approximately normally distributed and for a normal distribution, 68 % of the values lie in the range x - σ to x + σ.
So, 68 % of Braves players fall between 230 and 270.
