Answer:
2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 95
Standard deviation = 15
Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are no more than 65?
65 = 95 - 2*15
So 65 is two standard deviations below the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean. Of those 5% which are not, 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean and 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean.
So 2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65
Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
I have attached a diagram of the triangle described.
We can use any of the trigonometric functions to find angle x. Remember, SOH CAH TOA. And since we're finding the angle, we'll need to use an inverse trigonometric function. For this problem, I'll be using the sine function.
sin(x) = 84 / 85
x = sin^-1(84/85)
x = 81.2026 degrees (feel free to round to however many places you need)
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
7 ÷ 4/5 is 8.75 as a decimal or 8 3/4 as a fraction
Well, there are different ways to do this if you are really familiar with fractions, but "officially" :P
1) convert mixed numbers to improper fractions.
rule: a b/c = (ac+b)/c
2) make all fractions have a common denominator...
a/b+c/d
(a/b)(d/d)+(c/d)(b/b)
(ad/bd)+(cb/bd)
3)
The simplify your final answer with greatest common denominator or convert back to mixed number if needed...
