Heights of men have a bell-shaped distribution, with a mean of 176 cm and a standard deviation of 7 cm. Using the Empirical Rule

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

a) 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.

b) 95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.

c) It is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 68-95-99.5 empirical rule can be used to solve this problem.

This values correspond to the percentage of data that falls within in a band around the mean with two, four and six standard deviations of width.

a) What is the approximate percentage of men between 169 and 183 cm?

To calculate this in an empirical way, we compare the values of this interval with the mean and the standard deviation and can be seen that this interval is one-standard deviation around the mean:

$\mu-\sigma=176-7=169\\\mu+\sigma=176+7=183$

Empirically, for bell-shaped distributions and approximately normal, it can be said that 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.

b) Between which 2 heights would 95% of men fall?

This corresponds to ±2 standard deviations off the mean.

$\mu-2\sigma=176-2*7=162\\\\\mu+2\sigma=176+2*7=190$

95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.

c) Is it unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall?

The number of standard deviations of distance from the mean is

$n=(197-176)/7=3$

The percentage that lies outside 3 sigmas is 0.5%, so only 0.25% is expected to be 197 cm.

It can be said that is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.

Answer:

the third option, "what number, when added to negative four, is equal to negative five?"

Step-by-step explanation:

"what number, when added to negative four, is equal to negative five?" can be expressed as g + (- 4) = - 5, which is the same as in the equation.

i hope this helps! :D comment if you need any clarification.

Two pizzas with 8 inch and 16 inch diameters are each cut into 6 equal pieces. How does the area of each piece of the smaller pi

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to think about increasing area is by taking a square, if you double the dimensions, let's say they were 1 by 1 and then was made into a 2x2 square, you can fit four of the original cube (1x1) into the 2x2. So when the dimensions are doubled the area is quadrupled.

Even easier shortcut:

Take the cube idea, when the dimensions are messed with for anything, (works for volume too) always think of the smaller piece as 1x1 or 1x1x1. Then if the dimensions are double make it 2x2 or 2x2x2. If the dimensions are tripled then do 3x3 or 3x3x3, etc... 1x1=1x1x1, they are both equal to 1. So think of that as the numerator. the 2x2 in this case is equal to 4 so the smaller piece is 1/4 of the bigger one. Shown with volume if you double the dimensions of a cube that was 1x1x1 into 2x2x2. 1x1x1 still equals 1 so that's still the numerator and 2x2x2 is equal to 8 so the 1x1x1 cube is 1/8 of the 2x2x2, in other words you can fit eight 1x1x1 cubes into the 2x2x2 cube.

Hope this helps with area and volume.

What is the coefficient of X in the expression x/2+y+z

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

note that $\frac{x}{2}$ represents $\frac{1}{2}$ x

so the coefficient of the x- term is $\frac{1}{2}$
