During the 2009-2010 basketball season, the number of points scored in each game by the boston celtics was approximately normally distributed with a mean of 99.2 points and a standard deviation of 10.5 pthe mean number of points scored by los angeles lakers was 101.7. in what proportion of their games did the celtics score more than the lakers' mean score?

To solve this problem, we use the z statistic.  The z formula is:

z = (x – u) / s

where x is lakers score = 101.7, u is Celtics score = 99.2, s is standard dev = 10.5

z = (101.7 – 99.2) / 10.5 = 0.24

using the normal distribution table at z = 0.24, the P value is:

P (z = 0.24) = 0.5984 = 59.84% 

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
