Solve each problem. If you get stuck, consider using the double number lines. During a basketball practice, Mai attempted 40 fre
e throws and was successful on 25% of them. How many successful free throws did she make? A double number line with 7 evenly spaced tick marks. The top number line is labeled “free throws” and the first tick mark is labeled 0. The other tick marks are unlabeled. The bottom number line is not labeled and starting with the first tick mark 0, 25 percent, 50 percent, 75 percent, 100 percent, 125 percent, and 150 percent are labeled. Yesterday, Priya successfully made 12 free throws. Today, she made 150% as many. How many successful free throws did Priya make today?

675 people will have score between 85 and 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Mean = 100
SD = 15
If we have to find percentage of score between two values we have to find the z-score for both values and then area under the curve for both values
z-score is given by:
for a value x:
So,
For 85:
Now we have to find the area under the curve for both values of z-score. z-score tables are used for this purpose.
So,
For z1 : 0.1587
For z2: 0.9082
The area between z11 and z2:
So the probability of score between 85 and 120 is 0.7495
As the sample is of 900 people, the people with scores between 85 and 120 will be:
900*0.7495 = 674.55 people
Rounding off to nearest whole number
675 people will have score between 85 and 120
