Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of u = 75.0 beats per minute and a standard devia

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

36.88% probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 75, \sigma = 12.5$

Find the probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 81 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 69.

X = 81

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{81 - 75}{12.5}$

$Z = 0.48$

$Z = 0.48$ has a pvalue of 0.6844

X = 69

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{69 - 75}{12.5}$

$Z = -0.48$

$Z = -0.48$ has a pvalue of 0.3156

0.6844 - 0.3156 = 0.3688

36.88% probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 81 beats per minute.

Find the measure of c. A. 40 B. 70 C. 90 D. 50

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

D. 50

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 90° (angle subtended in semicircle)

a + c + 40° = 180° (by angle sum postulate of a triangle)

90° + c + 40° = 180°

c + 130° = 180°

c = 180° - 130°

c = 50°

A corn vendor at a farmers market was selling a bag of 8 ears of corn for $2.56.Another vendor was selling a bag of 12 for $4.32

ankoles [38]

To decide which one is the better deal, you need to compare them on price per ear. So, the the first vendor is $2.56/8ears= $0.32/ear

the second vendor: $4.32/12 = $0.36/ear

The first vendor with the bag of 8 ears is the better deal!
