Use the following information to answer Questions 31 and 32. Male players at the high school, college, and professional ranks use regulation basketballs that weigh on average 22.0 ounces with a standard deviation of 1.0 ounce. Assume that the weights of the basketballs are approximately Normally distributed. Roughly what percentage of regulation basketballs weight more than 23.1 ounces?a. 42.396b. 36.496c. 13.696d. 15.196

c. 13.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean weight (μ)= 22.0 ounces

Standard deviation (σ) = 1.0 ounce

Assuming a normal distribution, for any given weight X, the corresponding z-score is found by the following equation:

For X = 23.1 ounces:

According to a z table, a score of 1.1 corresponds to the 86.43th percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the percentage of regulation basketballs that weight more than 23.1 ounces is:

The percentage is 13.6%.

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
