Suppose that a random sample of adult males has a sample mean heart mass of x¯=310.1 grams, with a sample standard deviation of

s=6.6 grams. Since adult male heart masses are generally symmetric and bell-shaped, we can apply the Empirical Rule. Between what two masses do approximately 68% of the data occur? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

Between 303.5 grams and 316.7 grams

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 = 310.1 grams

Standard deviation = 6.6 grams

Between what two masses do approximately 68% of the data occur?

By the Empirical Rule, within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

310.1 - 6.6 = 303.5 grams

310.1 + 6.6 = 316.7 grams

Between 303.5 grams and 316.7 grams

HELP ASAP In two or more complete sentences, Explain how you would find the equation of a parabola, given the coordinate of the
kvasek [131]
In the general case in Cartesian coordinates, you would use the definition of a parabola as the locus of points equidistant from the focus and directrix. The equation would equate the square of the distance from a general point (x, y) to the focus with the square of the distance from that point to the directrix line.

Suppose the focus is located at (h, k) and the equation of the directrix is ax+by+c=0. The expression for the square of the distance from (x, y) to the point (h, k) is ...
  (d₁)² = (x-h)²+(y-k)²
The expression for the square of the distance from (x, y) to the directrix line is
  (d₂)² = (ax+by+c)²/(a²+b²)

Equating these expressions gives the equation of the parabola.
  (x-h)²+(y-k)² = (ax+by+c)²/(a²+b²)

When the directrix is parallel with one of the axes, one of the coefficents "a" or "b" is zero and the equation becomes much simpler. Often, it would be easier to make use of the formula (for a directrix parallel to the x-axis):
  y = 1/(4p)*(x -h)² +k
where the (h, k) here is the vertex, the point halfway between the focus and directrix, and "p" is the (signed) distance from the focus to the vertex. (p is positive when the focus is above or to the right of the vertex.)
