A philosophy professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 10% of scores B: Scores below the top 10% and above the bottom 58% C: Scores below the top 42% and above the bottom 20% D: Scores below the top 80% and above the bottom 9% F: Bottom 9% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 67.3 and a standard deviation of 7.3. Find the numerical limits for a D grade. Round your answers to the nearest whole number, if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The numerical limits for a D grade are 58(lower limit) and 61(upper limit).

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 67.3 and a standard deviation of 7.3.

This means that [tex]\mu = 67.3, \sigma = 7.3[/tex]

D: Scores below the top 80% and above the bottom 9%

This means that lower bound is the 9th percentile and the upper bound is the 100 - 80 = 20th percentile.

9th percentile:

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.09. So X when Z = -1.34.

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

[tex]-1.34 = \frac{X - 67.3}{7.3}[/tex]

[tex]X - 67.3 = -1.34*7.3[/tex]

[tex]X = 57.52[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest whole number, 58.

20th percentile:

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.2. So X when Z = -0.84

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

[tex]-0.84 = \frac{X - 67.3}{7.3}[/tex]

[tex]X - 67.3 = -0.84*7.3[/tex]

[tex]X = 61.17[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest whole number, 61.

The numerical limits for a D grade are 58(lower limit) and 61(upper limit).

A spherical cantaloupe is cut in half. The visible cross-section has an area of 5252 in2. The volume of the cantaloupe is _____ cm3. Round your answer to the tenths place.

Answers

Answer:

V = 286319.465 cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the radius to be able to find the volume of a sphere.

The equation for the area of a circle is pi r^2 so you have to so some algebra.

5252 = pi r ^2

5252/pi = r^2

1671.76352 = r^2

sqrt(1671.76352) = r

r = 40.8872048

then you do the equation for the volume of a circle which is 4/3 pi r^3

4/3 pi (40.8872048)^3

4/3 pi 68353.7373

4/3 214739.599

286319.465

150 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezoid = ½(a + b)h

Where,

a = 24 ft

b = 24 + 12 = 36 ft

h = √(13² - 12²) = √25 = 5 ft (pythagorean theorem was applied here)

Plug in the values

Area of trapezoid = ½(24 + 36)*5

Jackson is interested in the number of memories people can recall. He knows that the number of memories recalled is normally distributed in the general population, with a population mean of 30 and a population standard deviation of 5. What is the probability that Jackson randomly selects a person from this population who recalls between 26 and 29 memories

Answers

Answer:

0.2088 = 20.88% probability that Jackson randomly selects a person from this population who recalls between 26 and 29 memories.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Population mean of 30 and a population standard deviation of 5.

This means that [tex]\mu = 30, \sigma = 5[/tex]

What is the probability that Jackson randomly selects a person from this population who recalls between 26 and 29 memories?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 29 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 26. So

X = 29

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

[tex]Z = \frac{29 - 30}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.4207

X = 26

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

[tex]Z = \frac{26 - 30}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.8[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.8[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2119

0.4207 - 0.2119 = 0.2088

0.2088 = 20.88% probability that Jackson randomly selects a person from this population who recalls between 26 and 29 memories.
