<h3>Answer: A) z = 12</h3>

==========================================

Work Shown:

RS = RT

2z-15 = 9

2z = 9+15

2z = 24

z = 24/2

z = 12

The reason why RS is equal to RT in the first equation is because we have an isosceles triangle. Recall that any isosceles triangle has exactly two sides the same length, and the opposite base angles are congruent to one another. The congruent angles are indicated with the single arcs.

In short: the base angles S and T are congruent, so the opposite sides RS and RT are the same length. This leads to RS = RT.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Sum of triangle is equal to 180°

180 = 2x + 50 + 3x - 10

180 = 5x + 40

180 - 40 = 5x

140 = 5x

140/5 = x

28 = x

Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 13. Use the empirical rule

Yuri [45]

Answer:

(a) 68% of people has an IQ score between 87 and 113.

(b) 5% of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution,

mean = 100

standard deviation = 13

According to the empirical rule

68% data lies between $\overline{x}-\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+\sigma$ .

95% data lies between $\overline{x}-2\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+2\sigma$ .

99.7% data lies between $\overline{x}-3\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+3\sigma$ .

(a)

$\overline{x}-\sigma=100-13=87$

$\overline{x}+\sigma=100+13=113$

$[\overline{x}-\sigma,\overline{x}+\sigma]=[87,113]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 68% of people has an IQ score between 87 and 113.

(b)

$\overline{x}-2\sigma=100-2(13)=74$

$\overline{x}+2\sigma=100+2(13)=126$

$[\overline{x}-2\sigma,\overline{x}+2\sigma]=[74,126]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 95% of people has an IQ score between 74 and 126.

The percentage of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126 is

P = 1- percent of people has an IQ score between 74 and 126.

P = 1- 95%

P = 5%

Therefore 5% of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126.

(c)

$\overline{x}-3\sigma=100-3(13)=61$

$\overline{x}+3\sigma=100+3(13)=139$

$[\overline{x}-3\sigma,\overline{x}+3\sigma]=[61,139]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 99.7% of people has an IQ score between 61 and 139.

The percentage of people has an IQ score less than 61 or greater than 139 is

P = 1- percent of people has an IQ score between 61 and 139.

P = 1- 99.7%

P = 0.3%

The percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 139 is

$P=\frac{1}{2}(0.3\%)=0.15\%$

Therefore 0.15% of people has an IQ score greater than 139.

A town's yearly snowfall in inches over a 10-year period is recorded in this table. What is the mean of the snowfall amounts?

lawyer [7]

So to find the mean you add them all together and divide by the number of numbers there is so 11+15+19+17+23+20+17+18+21=174 and there are 10 numbers so it would be 174/10 which is 17.4 so you answer is 17.4
