Your answer would be 15.6
Answer:
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of IQ scores are between 87 and 121
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 = 104
Standard deviation = 17
Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are between 87 and 121
87 = 104 - 1*17
So 87 is one standard deviation below the mean
121 = 104 + 1*17
So 121 is one standard deviation above the mean
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of IQ scores are between 87 and 121
Answer:
3: No
4: 25
Step-by-step explanation:
3: It won't because not everyone is the same height and there will be variation in the mean height.
4: A larger sample size will give a more accurate representation of the population, where as a sample size of 5 is much more likely to have a higher percentage of outliers, and each outlier matters much more in finding the mean. In a sample size of 25, each outlier matters much less.
