A score of 85 would be 1 standard deviation from the mean, 74.  Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, we know that 68% of normally distributed data falls within 1 standard deviation of the mean.  This means that 100%-68% = 32% of the data is either higher or lower.  32/2 = 16% of the data will be higher than 1 standard deviation from the mean and 16% of the data will be lower than 1 standard deviation from the mean.  This means that 16% of the graduating seniors should have a score above 85%.

Which of the following statements must be true about this diagram? Check all that apply.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Options (D), (E) and (F) are the correct options.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

1). Angle 4 is the exterior angle of the given triangle having interior angles 1, 2 and 3.

Therefore, by the property of exterior angle,

∠4 = ∠1 + ∠2

2). Since ∠4 = ∠1 + ∠2,

Therefore, ∠4 will be greater than ∠1

 Similarly, ∠4 will be greater than ∠2

Therefore, Options (D), (E) and (F) are the correct options.

A hexagonal pyramid is cut by a plane as shown in the diagram. What is the shape of the resulting cross section? see diagram
Alenkasestr [34]

From the diagram you can see that plane cuts each lateral face of hexagonal pyramid and do not cut the base. A hexagonal pyramid has six lateral faces. The intersection of each of these lateral faces with given cutting plane is segment. The figure which consists of these segments is hexagon. This hexagon is not the same as base and even is not similar to the base because the cutting plane is not parallel to the base.

Answer: resulting cross section is a hexagon, correct choice is option 4.

An angle bisector always creates two acute angles. find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
An acute angle is an angle that is less than 90°. An angle bisector is a ray drawn along an angle that bisects it into two equal and adjacent parts. Now, if the total angle is, say 270°, which is more than a half circle, it would result to two 135-degree angles. In this case, the angle is no longer acute, but obtuse.

Carolyn is using the table to find 360% of 15. What values do X and Y represent in her table? Percent Total 100% 100% 100% 20% 2
asambeis [7]

Answer:   c

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the percent breakdown of 360%.

100% 100% 100% 20%20%20%

15.       15.      15.    3.     3.     3.

100% is all of it, so 15. This is x.

20% of it would be calculated as 0.2 x 15 or 3. This is y.
