A score of 85 would be 1 standard deviation from the mean, 74. Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, we know that 68% of normally distributed data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean. This means that 100%-68% = 32% of the data is either higher or lower. 32/2 = 16% of the data will be higher than 1 standard deviation from the mean and 16% of the data will be lower than 1 standard deviation from the mean. This means that 16% of the graduating seniors should have a score above 85%.
The correct answer is 48%
There are 10 even numbers from 1 to 21.
That makes the probability of an even number 10 out 21.
10 / 21 x 100 = 48%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Rick and Debbie are painting a large barn. Debbie paints twice as fast as Rick. They work together for 16 hours and complete the job. Determine how fast Debbie and Rick can paint the entire barn separately.
= 1/a + 1/2a = 1/16
= 2a + a/2a² = 1/16
2a/2a² = 1/16
= 1/a = 1/16
Answer: 70 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
