Answer: Hello!
In a normal distribution, between the mean and the mean plus the standar deviation, there is a 34.1% of the data set, between the mean plus the standar deviation, and the mean between two times the standard deviation, there is a 16.2% of the data set, and so on.
If our mean is 16 inches, and the measure is 26 inches, then the difference is 10 inches between them.
a) if the standar deviation is 2 inches, then you are 10/2 = 5 standar deviations from the mean.
b) yes, is really far away from the mean, in a normal distribution a displacement of 5 standar deviations has a very small probability.
c) Now the standar deviation is 7, so now 26 is in the range between 1 standar deviation and 2 standar deviations away from the mean.
Then this you have a 16% of the data, then in this case, 26 inches is not far away from the mean.
Answer: point F is at <u> 0.6 </u> on the number line
=============================================================
Explanation:
The ratio 2:3 scales up to 2x:3x for some positive real number x.
This means the distance from D to F is 2x units, and the distance from F to E is 3x units. Combine those two smaller distances to get 2x+3x = 5x to represent the full distance from D to E.
D is at -3 and E is at 6. This is a distance of 9 units since |-3-6| = |-9| = 9
Set this equal to the 5x from earlier and solve
5x = 9
x = 9/5
x = 1.8
This leads to 2x = 2*1.8 = 3.6
Therefore, we'll move 3.6 units from -3 to -3+3.6 = 0.6 which is the location of point F on the number line.
Notice that from 0.6 to 6 is 5.4 units and that 3x = 3*1.8 = 5.4 matches up to help confirm the answer.
After you solve it you get B
Answer:
The black tulle is the better buy
Step-by-step explanation:
You will need to find the unit rate for the tulle...in other words cost per 1 yard to see which is the better buy.
You also need to make sure they are in the same units. So, we will convert the 3 yards to feet....which will be 9 feet
5.63/9 = 0.62555 per foot
3.58/6 = 0.59666 per foot
