If the heights of 300 students are normally distributed with mean 68.0 inches and standard deviation 3.0 inches, how many studen

Lunna [17]

Given:
μ = 68 in, population mean
σ = 3 in, population standard deviation

Calculate z-scores for the following random variable and determine their probabilities from standard tables.

x = 72 in:
z = (x-μ)/σ = (72-68)/3 = 1.333
P(x) = 0.9088

x = 64 in:
z = (64 -38)/3 = -1.333
P(x) = 0.0912

x = 65 in
z = (65 - 68)/3 = -1
P(x) = 0.1587

x = 71:
z = (71-68)/3 = 1
P(x) = 0.8413

Part (a)
For x > 72 in, obtain
300 - 300*0.9088 = 27.36

Answer: 27

Part (b)
For x ≤ 64 in, obtain
300*0.0912 = 27.36

Answer: 27

Part (c)
For 65 ≤ x ≤ 71, obtain
300*(0.8413 - 0.1587) = 204.78

Answer: 204

Part (d)
For x = 68 in, obtain
z = 0
P(x) = 0.5
The number of students is
300*0.5 = 150

Answer: 150

Consider ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.

LenKa [72]

Answer:- B. No, because the corresponding congruent angles listed are not the included angles.

Explanation:-

Given:- ΔWXY and ΔBCD with ∠X ≅∠C, WX ≅ BC, and WY ≅ BD.

Now, look at the attachment

We can see that ∠X and ∠C are not included angles by the corresponding equal sides.

⇒ We cannot use SAS postulate to show ΔWXY ≅ ΔBCD .

⇒ B is the right option.

SAS postulate tells the if two sides of a triangle and their included angle is equal to the two sides of a triangle and their included angle of another triangle then the two triangles are congruent.
