Add an intersection the red light times normally distributed by the mean of three minutes and a standard deviation of .25 minutes approximately what percent of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes

95% of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case,

Assume the bell shaped graph of normal distribution,

The center of the graph is mean which is 3 minutes.

We move one space to the right side of mean ⇒ M + SD

⇒ 3+0.25 = 3.25 minutes.

Again we move one more space to the right of mean ⇒ M + 2SD

⇒ 3 + (0.25×2) = 3.5 minutes.

Similarly,

Move one space to the left side of mean ⇒ M - SD

⇒ 3-0.25 = 2.75 minutes.

Again we move one more space to the left of mean ⇒ M - 2SD

⇒ 3 - (0.25×2) =2.5 minutes.

The questions asks to approximately what percent of red lights last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes.

Notice 2.5 and 3.5 fall within 2 standard deviations, and that 95% of the data is within 2 standard deviations. (Refer to bell-shaped graph)

Therefore, the percent of  red lights that last between 2.5 and 3.5 minutes is 95%

2 equivalent expressions to represent the area of a rectangle and the top is n-3 and the side is 2

area of the rectangle = length * width

given length = n - 3

width = 2

replace it in the area

so area of the rectangle = (n-3) *2

= 2(n-3)

one of the expression is 2(n-3)

to get another expression we distribute 2 inside the parenthesis

2(n-3) is 2n - 6

so another expression is 2n - 6

two equivalent expression are

2(n - 3)   , 2n - 6
