Exam grades: Scores on a statistics final in a large class were normally distributed with a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 9. Use the TI-84 PLUS calculator to answer the following. Round the answers to at least two decimals. (a) Find the 41st percentile of the scores. (b) Find the 74th percentile of the scores. (c) The instructor wants to give an A to the students whose scores were in the top 8% of the class. What is the minimum score needed to get an A

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Using the TI-84 PLUS calculator

a). Area : 0.41

μ = 75

σ = 9

InvNorm(0.41,75,9)

= 72.95209525

Therefore, the 41st percentile of the scores is 72.95209525

b).  Area : 0.74

μ = 75

σ = 9

InvNorm(0.74,75,9)

= 80.79010862

Therefore, the 74st percentile of the scores is 80.79010862

c). 8%

So,  Area : 0.92

μ = 75

σ = 9

InvNorm(0.92,75,9)

= 87.64564405

Therefore, X =  80.79010862

A survey is sent out to 500 people asking questions related to the link between religion and sexual behavior at a young age. The survey does not have any tracking device, and the results are sent to a database that gives no indication of who or where the results came from. However, the database is posted online for religion and human behavior researchers to freely conduct statistical analyses. The responses to this survey are
a. both confidential and anonymous.
b. confidential only.
c. anonymous only.
d. neither confidential nor anonymous.

Answers

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the the identities of the survey takers were kept secret, it would be anonymous. If it wasn't anonymous, then people would know who took the survey.

Since the survey results were released online for analyses, it is not confidential. If it were to be confidential, then the survey distributors would have kept the results to themseles.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support. Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%. Specify whether the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

Answers

Answer:

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.

It is needed that:

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed 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.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Out of 124 software users

This means that [tex]n = 124[/tex]

Assume the probability that a given software user will call technical support is 97%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.97[/tex]

Conditions:

[tex]np = 124*0.97 = 120.28 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 124*0.03 = 3.72 < 10[/tex]

Since [tex]n(1-p) = 3.72 < 10[/tex], the normal curve cannot be used as an approximation to the binomial probability.

Consider the probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

The lowest possible probability of those is 27, so, if it is 0, since it is considerably below the mean, 100% probability of being greater. We have that:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 27) = C_{124,27}.(0.97)^{27}.(0.03)^{97} = 0[/tex]

1 - 0 = 1

100% probability that greater than 26 out of 124 software users will call technical support.

Let x be the amount that is added to each dimension. After writing an equation in standard form with a > 0, a= ? b= ? and c= ?
(Simplify your answers.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

new length=15+x

width=19+x

then area=(15+x)×(19+x)=285+15x+19x+x²=x²+34x+285 ft²

original area=15×19=285 ft²

then 285+98=x²+34x+285

or

x²+34x-98=0

x²+34x+17²=98+17²

(x+17)²=98+289=387

x+17=√387=3√43

x=3√43-17 ft

A survey on Internet usage was conducted among a group of 200 students in the school cafeteria. It was found that 100 students spend at least two hours online every day. Which of these is an example of descriptive statistics? a.) 50% of the students in the cafeteria spend at least two hours online each day. b.) 50% of the students in the school spend at least two hours online each day. c.) 50% of the students in a class spend at least two hours online each day. d.) 50% of the students surveyed spend at least two hours online each day.

Answers

Answer:

D) 50% of the students surveyed spend at least two hours online each day.

50% of the students surveyed spend at least two hours online each day.

Hence option d is correct.

Given that,

Number of students who spend at least two hours online = 100

Total number of students surveyed = 200

To calculate the percentage of students who spend at least two hours online each day,

we can use the formula:

percentage = (number of students who spend at least two hours online / total number of students surveyed) x 100%

Plugging in the values from the problem, we get:

percentage = (100 / 200) x 100% = 50%

Therefore, we can conclude that 50% of the students surveyed spend at least two hours online each day.

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

We would need to solve for 'x'. We are already given the 'y' value of '-4', so we would need to substitute y for '-4', and then undo operations to isolate 'x'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]\rightarrow 6x + 7(-4) =4x + 4(-4)\\\\\rightarrow 6x - 28 = 4x - 16\\\\\rightarrow 6x - 28 + 28 = 4x - 16 + 28\\\\\rightarrow 6x = 4x + 12\\\\\rightarrow 6x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 12\\\\\rightarrow 2x = 12\\\\\rightarrow \frac{2x=12}{2}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = 6}[/tex]

Which word describes the relationship of the points (3, 1)

Answers

Answer:

  A)  collinear

Step-by-step explanation:

"Parallel" and "perpendicular" are descriptors of pairs of lines and planes. They do not apply to pairs of points.

The two points have different coordinates, so are distinct, rather than coincident.

Of these words, the only applicable choice is "collinear."

Additional comment

Any pair of distinct points is collinear. Two points define a line, and two points on the same line are collinear.

A perpendicular line creates an angle of 90° with a line or a plane. If a line exists to be drawn from a point to a line or a plane it can only be one. In this case, a line exists to be drawn through a point A to a plane P. If the line stands to be perpendicular, then it exists only one.

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of factorization.

It is like "splitting" an expression into a multiplication of simpler expressions. Factoring is also the opposite of Expanding.

STEP ONE: separate 3a² into two terms

3a

STEP TWO: separate 3 into two terms

3

STEP THREE: match the four terms in ways that when doing cross-multiplication, the result will give us 10a.

3a     1

a       3

When cross multiply, 3a × 3 + 1 × a = 10a
