It was reported that 53% of people who had coronary bypass surgery in a recent year were over the age of 65. Fifteen coronary bypass patients are sampled. What is the probability that exactly 9 of them are over the age of 65? O 60.95% O 78.75% O 39.05% O 17.80%
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 225 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 104.3 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 173.55 cm and a standard deviation of 5.15 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? Since the z score for the tallest man is z= and the z score for the shortest man is z= the V man had the height that was more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.)
The ages of the winners of a cycling tournament are approximately bell shaped. The mean age is 27.4 years, with a standard deviation of 3.6 years. The winner in one recent year was 29 years old. Transform the age to a a-score. Interpret the results. Determine whether the age is unusual.
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 256cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 114.6 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 174.87 cm and a standard deviation of 7.57 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme? Since the z score for the tallest man is z=____ and the z score for the shortest man is z=_____, the (Shortest/tallest) man had the height that was more extreme. (Round to two decimal places.)
Researchers measured the data speeds for a particular smartphone carrier at 50 airports. The highest speed measured was 77.3 Mbps. The complete list of 50 data speeds has a mean of x = 18.24 Mbps and a standard deviation of s = 17.77 Mbps. a. What is the difference between carrier's highest data speed and the mean of all 50 data speeds? b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]? c. Convert the carrier's highest data speed to a z score. d. If we consider data speeds that convert to z scores between -2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the carrier's highest data speed significant? a. The difference is (Type an integer or a Mbps. decimal. Do not round.) b. The difference is (Round to two decimal standard deviations. places as needed.) c.

A successful basketball player has a height of 6 feet 11 inches, or 211 cm. Based on statistics from a data set, his height converts to the z score of 5.17. How many standard deviations is his height above the mean?
Assume that the mean height of men in the United States is 70 inches, with a standard deviation of 3 inches. A particular man is 80 inches tall. Find the z-score of his height. (Round to two decimal places.)
Use z scores to compare the given values. In a recent awards ceremony, the age of the winner for best actor was 27 and the age of the winner for best actress were 47. For all best actors, the mean age is 42.7 years and the standard deviation is 7.7 years. For all best actresses, the mean age is 32.9 years and the standard deviation is 11.2 years. (All ages are determined at the time of the awards ceremony.) Relative to their genders, who had the more extreme age when winning the award, the actor or the actress? Explain. Since the z score for the actor is z= and the z score for the actress is z=,the▼actress actor had the more extreme age.
A standardized exam's scores are normally distributed. In a recent year, the mean test score was 1458 and the standard deviation was 312. The test scores of four students selected at random are 1860, 1220, 2150, and 1340. Find the z-scores that correspond to each value and determine whether any of the values are unusual. The z-score for 1860 is (Round to two decimal plaes as needed.)
Find the indicated IQ score. The graph to the right depicts IQ scores of adults, and those scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
