Suppose ACT Science scores are normally distributed with a mean of 20.8 and a standard deviation of 5.2. A university plans to send letters of recognition to students whose scores are in the top 12%. What is the minimum score required for a letter of recognition? Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer:

Hello,

Answer 26.9

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-m}{\sigma} \\m=20.8\\\sigma=5.2\\\\p(z>?)\geq 0.12\ \longrightarrow 1-p(z\leq ?)=(1-0.12))\\\\Using\ table\ of\ normal\ reduce\ with\ 4 \decimals : ?=1.175\\\\x=1.175*5.2+20.8=26.91\approx{26.9}[/tex]

A group of dental researchers are testing the effects of acidic drinks on dental crowns. They have five containers of crowns labeled V, W, X, Y, and Z. They will randomly select one of the containers to be the control for the experiment by drawing one of five well-mixed slips of paper with the same labels from a hat. Which of the following is the probability model for the control container?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]S = \{V,W,X,Y,Z\}[/tex]

[tex]n(S) = 5[/tex]

Required

The probability model

To do this, we simply calculate the probability of each container.

So, we have:

[tex]P(V) = \frac{n(V)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(W) = \frac{n(W)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(X) = \frac{n(X)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(Y) = \frac{n(Y)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

[tex]P(Z) = \frac{n(Z)}{n(S)} = \frac{1}{5} = 0.20[/tex]

So, the probability model is:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {V} & {W} & {X} & {Y} & {Z} & P(x) & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} & {0.20} \ \end{array}[/tex]

answer is V=.20, W=.20, X=.20, Y=.20, X=.20

A normal population has mean and standard deviation . (a) What proportion of the population is greater than ? (b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen value will be less than .

Answers

Answer:

0.0171

0.89158

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

μ = 60

Standard deviation , σ = 17

The probability that a randomly chosen score is greater than 96;

P(Z > Zscore)

Zscore = (score, x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (96 - 60) / 17 = 2.118

P(Z > 2.118) = 1 - P(Z < 2.118) = 1 - 0.9829 = 0.0171

The probability that a randomly chosen score is less than 81;

P(Z < Zscore)

Zscore = (score, x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (81 - 60) / 17 = 1.235

P(Z < 1.235) = 0.89158

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 5 tables is $53. The total cost to rent 8 chairs and 3 tables is $42. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?

Answers

Answer:

c=cost of one chair rental

t=cost of one table rental

8c+3t=42

2c+5t=53

multiply the second equation, each term on both sides, by -4

8c+3t=42

-8c-20t=-212

add the two equations

-17t=-170

divide both sides by -17

t=$10 to rent one table

substitute t=10 into either original equation

2c+5(10)=53

2c+50=53

2c=3

c=$1.50 to rent one chair

f(x) * g(x) = (-6x + 3) * ( 5x + 4)

A rectangle with a length of 5 cm and a width of 2 cm is enlarged by a scale factor of 5. What would be the area of the new rectangle?
Area of old rectangle is multiplied by 25
Area of old rectangle is multiplied by 5
Area of old rectangle is multiplied by 20
Area of old rectangle is multiplied by 10

Answers

Area is in square units.

Square the factor: 5^2 = 25

The new area would be the area of the old rectangle multiplied by 25

Answer: Area of old rectangle is multiplied by 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Original rectangle

Length = 5 cmWidth = 2 cm

Area = 2 · 5 = 10 cm²

New rectangle

Length = 5 · 5 = 25 cmWidth = 2 · 5 = 10 cm

Area = 25 · 10 = 250 cm²

The area of the new rectangle = area of old rectangle × 25

The population of the world in 1987 was 5 billion and the annual growth rate was estimated at 2 percent per year. Assuming that the world population follows an exponential growth model, find the projected world population in 2015

Answers

Answer:

The projected world population in 2015 was 8,705,121,030 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the population of the world in 1987 was 5 billion and the annual growth rate was estimated at 2 percent per year, assuming that the world population follows an exponential growth model, to find the projected world population in 2015 the following calculation must be performed :

5,000,000,000 x 1.02 ^ (2015-1987) = X

5,000,000,000 x 1.02 ^ 28 = X

5,000,000,000 x 1.741024 = X

8,705,121,030 = X

Therefore, the projected world population in 2015 was 8,705,121,030 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression (3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6) is equivalent to the expression A, expression (-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2) is equivalent to the expression C, and expression (12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12)  is equivalent to the expression B.

What is polynomial?

Polynomial is the combination of variables and constants systematically with "n" number of power in ascending or descending order.

[tex]\rm a_1x+a_2x^2+a_3x^3+a_4x^4..........a_nx^n[/tex]

We have a polynomial shown in the picture.

A = -7x² - 2x + 5

B =  7x² - 2x + 7

C = 7x² + 2x - 5

The expression is:

= (3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6)

= -7x² - 2x + 5

= A

= (-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2)

= 7x² + 2x - 5

= C

= (12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12)

= 7x² - 2x + 7

= B

Thus, the expression (3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6) is equivalent to the expression A, expression (-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2) is equivalent to the expression C, and expression (12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12)  is equivalent to the expression B.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

(q and (not q or p)) = (q and not q) or (q and p) = false or q and p = q and p

(p and not (q and p)) = (p and (not q or not p)) =

= (p and not q) or (p and not p) = (p and not q) or false =

= p and not q

so, we have in total

(q and p) or (p and not q) = (p and q) or (p and not q).

this is p, because if p=false both brackets are false and therefore the whole expression is false. and if p=true, then one of the 2 brackets must be true, which makes the whole expression true.

Number of boys that bought 1 sharkys = 15

Total number of boys = 100

= 15 / 100 * 100% = 15%

2.)

Percentage of girls who bought 2 or more sharkys :

Number of girls who bought 2 or more sharkys

= 65

Total number of girls = 100

= 65 / 100 * 100% = 65%

3.)

Percentage of people who bought no sharkys

Number of people who bought no sharkys = 15

Total number of people = 200
