What is the midpoint

Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 13. Use the empirical rule

Yuri [45]

Answer:

(a) 68% of people has an IQ score between 87 and 113.

(b) 5% of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126.

(c) 0.15% of people has an IQ score greater than 139.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:Scores of an IQ test have a bell-shaped distribution,

mean = 100

standard deviation = 13

According to the empirical rule

68% data lies between $\overline{x}-\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+\sigma$ .

95% data lies between $\overline{x}-2\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+2\sigma$ .

99.7% data lies between $\overline{x}-3\sigma$ and $\overline{x}+3\sigma$ .

(a)

$\overline{x}-\sigma=100-13=87$

$\overline{x}+\sigma=100+13=113$

$[\overline{x}-\sigma,\overline{x}+\sigma]=[87,113]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 68% of people has an IQ score between 87 and 113.

(b)

$\overline{x}-2\sigma=100-2(13)=74$

$\overline{x}+2\sigma=100+2(13)=126$

$[\overline{x}-2\sigma,\overline{x}+2\sigma]=[74,126]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 95% of people has an IQ score between 74 and 126.

The percentage of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126 is

P = 1- percent of people has an IQ score between 74 and 126.

P = 1- 95%

P = 5%

Therefore 5% of people has an IQ score less than 74 or greater than 126.

(c)

$\overline{x}-3\sigma=100-3(13)=61$

$\overline{x}+3\sigma=100+3(13)=139$

$[\overline{x}-3\sigma,\overline{x}+3\sigma]=[61,139]$

Using empirical rule we can say that 99.7% of people has an IQ score between 61 and 139.

The percentage of people has an IQ score less than 61 or greater than 139 is

P = 1- percent of people has an IQ score between 61 and 139.

P = 1- 99.7%

P = 0.3%

The percentage of people has an IQ score greater than 139 is

$P=\frac{1}{2}(0.3\%)=0.15\%$

Therefore 0.15% of people has an IQ score greater than 139.

Answer:

we are going to use the formula...
V=πr2h

Step-by-step explanation:

so

V = (3.14) 4x4 (9)

V = (3.14) 16 x 9

V = 3.14 x 144

V = 452.16

Hence, the third or C
