7.43: Let
denote the random variable for height and
for the sample mean. Then if
is the mean of
So the probability that the difference between the sample and population means does not exceed 0.5 inch is

per the empirical or 68/95/99.7 rule.
7.44: For a sample of size <em>n</em>, the sample standard deviation would be
. We want to find <em>n</em> such that

Comparing to the equation from the previous part, this means we would need

so a sample of at least 157 men would be sufficient.
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
Perimeter = 34ft Area = 72ft squared
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of an object is all of it's sides combined. Because you stated two values, I assumed your shape is a rectangle. So the perimeter would be:
8 + 8 + 9 + 9 = 34
The area is length times width, so:
8 x 9 = 72
Because it is area, the units are squared.
Answer:
im here for the points sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
Obviously this will be a negative number
-2 - 14 = 5x - 3x
-16 = 2x
x = %28-16%29%2F2
x = -8 is the number
:
:
Check solution in the original statement: x=-8
3(-8) - 2 = 5(-8) + 14
-24 - 2 = -40 + 14
-26 = -26
