If the mean of a given dataset is 85 and the standard deviation is
12, where will a majority of the
data lie?

A majority of the data will lie between 38 and 46.

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be said that a majority of the data of a distribution lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

In this question:

Mean of 42, standard deviation of 4.

42 - 4 = 38

42 + 4 = 46

A majority of the data will lie between 38 and 46

75

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
