that while your balloon is 500 ft above ground, your friends balloon is 800 ft above ground. The plan is for both balloons to descend straight down. Your balloon willland right at the edge of the lake below, but it appears thatyour friends will be pretty far away. You can see a reflectionof their balloon right in the middle (direct center) of the 1200 ft wide lake below.How far away from the lake will your friends touch down?

Solve:

1,200 / 800 = 1.5

1.5 * 500 = 750

The length of human pregnancies from conception to birth varies according to an approximately normal distribution with a mean of
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

A) 68.33%

B) (234, 298)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean is 266 days (m) and the standard deviation is 16 days (sd), so we are asked:

A. P (250 x < 282)

P ((x1 - m) / sd < x < (x2 - m) / sd)

P ((250 - 266) / 16 < x < (282 - 266) / 16)

P (- 1 < z < 1)

P (z < 1) - P (-1 < z)

If we look in the normal distribution table we have to:

P (-1 < z) = 0.1587

P (z < 1) = 0.8413

replacing

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6833

The percentage of pregnancies last between 250 and 282 days is 68.33%

B. We apply the experimental formula of 68-95-99.7

For middle 95% it is:

(m - 2 * sd, m + 2 * sd)

Thus,

m - 2 * sd <x <m + 2 * sd

we replace

266 - 2 * 16 <x <266 + 2 * 16

234 <x <298

That is, the interval would be (234, 298)
