Answer:
a) 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.
b) 95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.
c) It is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 68-95-99.5 empirical rule can be used to solve this problem.
This values correspond to the percentage of data that falls within in a band around the mean with two, four and six standard deviations of width.
<em>a) What is the approximate percentage of men between 169 and 183 cm? </em>
To calculate this in an empirical way, we compare the values of this interval with the mean and the standard deviation and can be seen that this interval is one-standard deviation around the mean:
Empirically, for bell-shaped distributions and approximately normal, it can be said that 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.
<em>b) Between which 2 heights would 95% of men fall?</em>
This corresponds to ±2 standard deviations off the mean.
95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.
<em>c) Is it unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall?</em>
The number of standard deviations of distance from the mean is
The percentage that lies outside 3 sigmas is 0.5%, so only 0.25% is expected to be 197 cm.
It can be said that is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.
We have to use the rule of cosx° to solve this problem. Attached is a diagram of the navigator's course for the plane. It is similar to the shape of a triangle. We know the plane is 300 miles from its destination, so that will be one of the sides. On the current course, it is 325 miles from its destination, so that will be another one of the sides. The last side is 125 because that is the distance between the destination and the anticipated arrival. Cosx° is what we are looking for.
To find how many degrees off course the plane is, we must use the rules of Cosx°, which is shown in the attached image.
The plane is approximately 23° off course.
