Answer:

5/24 or 20.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

 

Probability that the 7th grader is a boy = number of boys/(total kids) = 4/(4+4) = 1/2

 

Probability that the 8th grader is a boy = 5/(5+7) = 5/12

 

Probability that both are boys = 1/2*(5/12) = 5/24 or 20.8%

The mean sat verbal score is 486, with a standard deviation of 95. use the empirical rule to determine what percent of the score
Pavel [41]
Find the z-scores for the two scores in the given interval.

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For the score x =391, z=\frac{391-486}{95}=\frac{-95}{95}=-1.

For the score x = 486, z=\frac{486-486}{95}=0

Now you want the area (proportion of data) under the normal distribution from z = -1 to z = 0. The Empirical Rule says that 68% of the data falls between z = -1 to z = 1. But the curve is symmetrical around the vertical axis at z = 0, so the answer you want is HALF of 68%.
