Aking in ancient times agreed to reward the inventor of chess with one grain of wheat on the first of the 64 squares of a chess board. on the second square the king would place two grains of wheat, on the third square, four grains of wheat, and on the fourth square eight grains of wheat. if the amount of wheat is doubled in this way on each of the remaining squares, how many grains of wheat should be placed on square 25? also find the total number of grains of wheat on the board at this time and their total weight in pounds. (assume that each grain of wheat weighs 1/7000 pound.)

Determine if the following statement is true or false. the normal curve is symmetric about its​ mean, mu. choose the best answer below. a. the statement is false. the normal curve is not symmetric about its​ mean, because the mean is the balancing point of the graph of the distribution. the median is the point where​ 50% of the area under the distribution is to the left and​ 50% to the right.​ therefore, the normal curve could only be symmetric about its​ median, not about its mean. b. the statement is true. the normal curve is a symmetric distribution with one​ peak, which means the​ mean, median, and mode are all equal.​ therefore, the normal curve is symmetric about the​ mean, mu. c. the statement is false. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, it is impossible for any distribution to be symmetric about the mean. d. the statement is true. the mean is the balancing point for the graph of a​ distribution, and​ therefore, all distributions are symmetric about the mean.
