since IQ follows a normal distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15, an IQ of 182 would be 5.47 standard deviations above the mean, making the probability of a person having an IQ of 182, .0000000086197. Assuming that the united states has a population of 273 million (im assuming), there would only be 2.35318 human beings in the united states with an IQ as high as 182. So what now British Newspapers? :P:P
**btw, took me 5 minutes to figure this out using calculus and simple math equations** |

simple enough but why calculus
all you need is stat distribution formulas |

| well i used an integral formula to find the area between 181.5 and 182.5 considering its impossible to get a non-integer number as an iq.........its more accurate to use calculus to do this |

Er, I think if you read the story again you'll notice that the study was actually carried out in Pennsylvania (or however it's spelt, I doubt my IQ even gets into double figures). Our newspaper was simply reporting on the findings.
**btw, took me 5 seconds to figure this out using simple reading**

lol....ya bush probably came up with the table himself...
anyways, i didnt mean for this thread to become a giant flame, i just wanted to point out that an iq of 182 seems quite unreal, and that george w. bush is a few sticks short of a fag. alright, back to my trance :D:D:D |
