Assume that the distribution of weights of adult men in the United States is normal with mean 190 pounds and standard deviation 30 pounds. The weight of a randomly selected adult male in the United States marks the start of the 40th percentile. How much does he weigh? Enter a number rounded to two decimal places, e. g. 165.12 not 165.12876. Do not enter the units.

182.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

40th percentile

Value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.4. So X when Z = -0.253.

So the answer is 182.41.

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.
