Find the minimum score required for an A grade. Round your answer to the nearest whole number, if necessary

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

mean μ = 70.

standard deviation σ, 9.6.

P(Z < 1.123) = 0.13

z = 1.13

Use the z-score formula,

x = z×σ +μ

Substitute the values in the above equation.

x = 1.13 9.6 + 70 = 81

The minimum score required for an A grade is = 81

Answer:

They can buy up to 240 drinks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of drinks

The price of 1 drink is 75¢ = $0.75

The price of x drinks is 0.75x

The store gives a discount of $100.

The rice of x drinks is

0.75x - 100

The total price of the drinks must be less than or equal to $80.

0.75x - 100 ≤ 80

Add 100 to both sides.

0.75x ≤ 180

Divide both sides by 0.75

x ≤ 240

Write a polynomial f (x) that satisfies the given conditions. Polynomial of lowest degree with zeros of -4 (multiplicity 3), 1 (multiplicity 1), and with f(0) = 320.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Polynomial f(x) has the following conditions: zeros of -4 (multiplicity 3), 1 (multiplicity 1), and with f(0) = 320.

The first part zeros of -4 means (x+4) and multiplicity 3 means (x+4)^3.

The second part zeros of 1 means (x-1) and multiplicity 1 means (x-1).

The third part f(0) = 320 means substituting x=0 into (x+4)^3*(x-1)*k =320

(0+4)^3*(0-1)*k = 320

-64k = 320

k = -5

Combining all three conditions, f(x)

= -5(x+4)^3*(x-1)

= -5(x^3 + 3*4*x^2 + 3*4*4*x + 4^3)(x-1)

= -5(x^4 + 12x^3 + 48x^2 + 64x - x^3 - 12x^2 - 48x - 64)

= -5(x^4 + 11x^3 + 36x^2 + 16x -64)

= -5x^3 -55x^3 - 180x^2 - 80x + 320

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 is a root for 3 times and 1 is root for once

so (x+4)^3 * (x-1) is part of f(x)

the constant term there is 4^3*(-1)=-64

so there is a multiplier of 320/-64=-5

f(x) = -5 * (x+4)^3 * (x-1)

The distribution of the number of children for families in the United States has mean 0.9 and standard deviation 1.1. Suppose a television network selects a random sample of 1000 families in the United States for a survey on TV viewing habits.

Required:
a. Describe (as shape, center and spread) the sampling distribution of the possible values of the average number of children per family.
b. What average numbers of children are reasonably likely in the sample?
c. What is the probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be 0.8 or less?
d. What is the probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be between 0.8 and 1.0?

Answers

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, it has an approximately normal shape, with mean(center) 0.9 and standard deviation(spread) 0.035.

b) Average numbers of children between 0.83 and 0.97 are reasonably likely in the sample.

c) 0.0021 = 0.21% probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be 0.8 or less

d) 0.9958 = 99.58% probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be between 0.8 and 1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean 0.9 and standard deviation 1.1.

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.9, \sigma = 1.1[/tex]

Suppose a television network selects a random sample of 1000 families in the United States for a survey on TV viewing habits.

This means that [tex]n = 1000, s = \frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1000}} = 0.035[/tex]

a. Describe (as shape, center and spread) the sampling distribution of the possible values of the average number of children per family.

By the Central Limit Theorem, it has an approximately normal shape, with mean(center) 0.9 and standard deviation(spread) 0.035.

b. What average numbers of children are reasonably likely in the sample?

By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the sample is within 2 standard deviations of the mean, so:

0.9 - 2*0.035 = 0.83

0.9 + 2*0.035 =  0.97

Average numbers of children between 0.83 and 0.97 are reasonably likely in the sample.

c. What is the probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be 0.8 or less?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.8. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.8 - 0.9}{0.035}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.86[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.86[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0021

0.0021 = 0.21% probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be 0.8 or less.

d. What is the probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be between 0.8 and 1.0?

p-value of Z when X = 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.8.

X = 1

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1 - 0.9}{0.035}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.86[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.86[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9979

X = 0.8

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.8 - 0.9}{0.035}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.86[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.86[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0021

0.9979 - 0.0021 = 0.9958

0.9958 = 99.58% probability that the average number of children per family in the sample will be between 0.8 and 1.0

Size of a plant cell = 0.0000127 m

To find:

The comparison of these two values.

Solution:

We have,

Size of a red blood cell = 0.000007 m

Size of a plant cell = 0.0000127 m

Clearly, [tex]0.0000127>0.000007[/tex]. Now, the difference between these two values is:

[tex]0.0000127-0.000007=0.0000057[/tex]

Therefore, the size of a plant cell is 0.0000057 m more than the size of a red blood cell.

Determine, without​ graphing, whether the given quadratic function has a maximum value or a minimum value and then find the value.
f(x)=6x^2+12x

Answers

Answer:

(-1, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

This a term in this function is not negative, which would make it be flipped over the x-axis. Therefore this function takes the typical parabola shape, and it will have a minimum point.

To find the x-value of the minimum use the formula -b / 2a.

-12 / 2(6) = -1

Then plug in the x-value and find the y-value for this function

f(-1) = 6(-1)^2 + 12(-1) = -6

The type of variation

First, we check for direct variation using:

[tex]k = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Pick corresponding points on the table

[tex](x,y) = (-2,-5)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{-5}{-2} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (4,10)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{10}{4} = 2.5[/tex]

[tex](x,y) = (6,15)[/tex]

So:

[tex]k = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

Hence, the table shows direct variation with [tex]k = 2.5[/tex]

Write the equations for a line parallel to the line:
y=-4/3x-4
That goes through the point (-7,-6)
Write your equation in slope intercept form, using reduced fractions for the slope and intercept if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

y = -4/3x -46/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question tells us to write an equation that is:

- parallel to the given line

- goes through the point (-7, -6)

Parallel lines will have the same slope, because if the slope was different, they would eventually intersect and not be parallel lines anymore.

We are going to use the point-slope form to find the other line.

Point-slope form uses a point that the graph will cross through and the slope of the graph to find the graph in y = mx + b form (also called slope-intercept form).

(I attached the point-slope form as an image below)

m = slope

x1 = x coordinate of the point

y1 = y coordinate of the point

We are going to substitute our slope into the form first:

y - y1 = (-4/3)(x - x1)

Next let's put in our point (-7, -6):

(Remember! -7 is our x coordinate & -6 is our y coordinate :-) )

y - (-6) = -4/3(x - (-7))

(cancel out the negatives to make them positive)

y + 6 = -4/3 (x +7)

Now solve for x using basic algebra:

y + 6 = -4/3 (x +7)

(distribue the -4/3)

y + 6 = -4/3x - 28/3

(subtract 6 from both sides)

y = -4/3x -46/3

That's your answer!

Hope it helps (●'◡'●)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 6 = -4/3(x + 7)

y + 6 = -4/3x - 28/3

y + 18/3 = -4/3x - 28/3

y = -4/3x - 46/3

Yet, on average, 20-year-old men contribute only about twice as many new point mutations to their offspring as do women. How can you explain this discrepancy If m2BGF = 152 what is mLAGF? PLZ Find a ratio equivalent to 9/10. Then use the ratios to write a proportion.a 70/63 9/10=70/63b 19/70 9/10=19/70c 19/20 9/10=19/20d 63/70 9/10=63/70 What is constitution How much current flows in the circuit if two resistors of 6 connected in parallel aresupplied with potential difference of 12 volts? suppose you have a block resting on a horizontal smooth surface. th block with a mass m is attached to a horizontal spring which is fixed at one end. the spring can be compressed and stretched. the mass is pulled to one side then released what is the formula required The area of a rectangle is 110 square units.
