The SAT Reasoning Test (formerly called the Scholastic Aptitude Test) is perhaps the most widely used standardized test for college admissions in the United States. Scores are based on a normal distribution with a mean of 1500 and a standard deviation of 300. Clinton College would like to offer an honors scholarship to students who score in the top 10 percent of this test. What is the minimum score that qualifies for the scholarship?

Minimum Score:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The score is  [tex]x = 1884[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 1500[/tex]

     The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 300[/tex]

     

From the question we are told that the score follow a normal distribution

i.e     [tex]X \~ \ N( 1500 , 300)[/tex]

The proportion of score in the top 10% is mathematically

           [tex]P(X > x ) = P( \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } > \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma } ) = 0.10[/tex]

Where x is the minimum score required to be in the top 10%

Now the [tex]\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma } = Z (The \ Standardized \ value \ of \ X)[/tex]

  So

            [tex]P(X > x ) = P( Z > \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma } ) = 0.10[/tex]

So

            [tex]P(X > x ) = P( Z > \frac{x - 1500}{300} ) = 0.10[/tex]

So the critical value of  0.10  from the normal distribution table is  [tex]Z_{0.10} = 1.28[/tex]

So

               [tex]\frac{x - 1500}{300} = 1.28[/tex]

              [tex]x = 1884[/tex]

Find the probability of winning a lottery with the following rule. Select the  six  winning numbers from​ 1, 2, . . .​ ,34 . ​(In any order. No​ repeats.)

Answer:

The  probability is  [tex]P(winning ) = 7.435 *10^{-7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  total winning numbers   n =  34

      The total number to select is   r =  6

The total outcome of  lottery is mathematically represented as

      [tex]t_{outcome}) = \left n } \atop {}} \right. C_r[/tex]

      [tex]t_{outcome}) = \frac{n! }{(n-r )! r!}[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]t_{outcome}) = \frac{ 34 ! }{(34 - 6 )! 6!}[/tex]

      [tex]t_{outcome}) = \frac{ 34 ! }{28 ! 6!}[/tex]

     [tex]t_{outcome}) =1344904[/tex]

The  number of desired outcome is  

           [tex]t_{desired} = 1[/tex]

 this is because the desired outcome is choosing the six winning number

   The probability of winning a lottery is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(winning ) = \frac{t_{desired}}{t_{outcome}}[/tex]

substituting values  

     [tex]P(winning ) = \frac{1}{1344904 }[/tex]

      [tex]P(winning ) = 7.435 *10^{-7}[/tex]

     

It takes amy 8 minutes to mow 1/6 of her backyard. At that rate how many more minutes will it take her to finish mowing her backyard

Answers

Answer:

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes her 8 minutes to mow 1/6 of it, we can find the total amount of time it  will take by multiplying 8 by 6, since 1/6 times 6 is 1 (1 represents the whole lawn mowed)

8(6) = 48

The question asks for how many more minutes it will take, so subtract 48 by 8.

48 - 8 = 40

= 40 minutes

Answer:

40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

8 minutes          x minutes

------------------- = ----------------

1/6 yard                 1 yard

Using cross products

8 * 1 = 1/6 x

Multiply each side by 6

8*6 = 1/6 * x * 6

48 = x

48 minutes total

She has already done 8 minutes

48-8 = 40 minutes

A population consists of 100 elements. We want to draw a simple, random sample of 20 elements from this population. On the first selection, the probability of any particular element being selected is ____.

Answers

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = expected outcome of event /total outcome

Since the population consists of 100 elements, the total outcome of event = 100.

If random sample of 20 element is drawn from the population, the expected outcome = 20

On the first selection, the probability of any particular element being selected = 20/100 = 1/5

Answers

Answer:

204

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the shape, you can do multiple things. I've opted to shave down both prongs to take it from a 'T' shape to a rectangular prism.

For height of the prongs, take 4 from 6.

6 - 4 = 2

Divide by 2 as there are 2 prongs.

2 / 2 = 1

Remember L * W * H

6 * 3 * 1 = 18

Remember that there are two prongs!

3 + 4 = 7

6 * 7 * 4 = 168

168 + 2(18) = 204

Sugar, flour, and oats are stored in three drawers. The first drawer is labeled "oats", the second is labeled, "flour", the third is labeled "oats or flour". The label of each drawer does not correspond to what is stored inside of it. In which drawers is what stored?

Answers

Answer:

first = flour, second = oats, third = sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the labels are "wrong", we know that the third drawer doesn't have oats or flour, therefore it has sugar. Since the first doesn't have oats, it must have flour and that makes the second drawer oats.

Answer:

first drawer has flour, second has oats, third is sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

on the first drawer, it is labelled oats, so it cannot be oats. on the second it cannot be flour, and on the third it cannot be oats or flour, which means it HAS to be sugar leaving oats and flour to be in either the first, or second.

A standard I.Q. test produces normally distributed results with a mean of 104 and a standard deviation of 16 for 52,000 students in grade 12 in the state. Approximately how many of these students would have I.Q.s above 140?

Answers

Answer: approx 1196 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

As known for normal distribution 95.4% of all results are situating at +-2*s distance from the mean. (s is the standard deviation)

2s=16*2=32 . The mean +2s= 104+32=136 = approx 140.

95.4% from 52000 = 49608 students. The residual amont ( which is out of the border mean+-2s)= 52000-49608=2392

Because of the normal distribution simmetry the number of the students which has IQ 140 and more is twice less than 2392.

N=2392:2=1196

Peter saved up $20,000 in an account earning a nominal 5% per year compounded continuously. How much was in the account at the end of two years? Round the answer to nearest dollar.

Answers

Answer: 22,103

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest is the interest calculated on the initial principal and the accumulated interest.

The amount in the account at the end of two years is $22,050.

What is compound interest?

Compound interest is the interest calculated on the initial principal and the accumulated interest.

We have,

Principal = $20,000

Rate = r = 5%

It is compounded yearly.

Time = t = 2 years.

The formula for the amount having compound interest:

A = P [tex]( 1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

A = 20,000 [tex](1 + \frac{5}{100\times1})^{2\times1}[/tex]

A = 20,000 ( 1 + 5/100 )²

A = 20,000 ( 105/100 )²

A = (20,000 x 105 x 105) / (100 x 100)

A = 2 x 105 x 105

A = $22,050

Thus the amount in the account at the end of two years is $22,050.

Answers

Answer:

The  width is  [tex]w = \$ 729.7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \% 1,000[/tex]

    The  sample size is  [tex]n = 50[/tex]

    The sample mean  is  [tex]\= x = \$ 15,000[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  99% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as  

               [tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

=>            [tex]\alpha = 1\%[/tex]

=>             [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is

             [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.01 }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

Generally margin of error is mathematically represented as

             [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

              [tex]E = 2.58 * \frac{1000 }{\sqrt{50} }[/tex]

              [tex]E = 2.58 * \frac{1000 }{\sqrt{50} }[/tex]

               [tex]E = 364.9[/tex]

The width of the 99% confidence interval is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]w = 2 * E[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]w = 2 * 364.9[/tex]

          [tex]w = \$ 729.7[/tex]

The value of y varies jointly with x and z. If y = 2 when z = 110 and x = 11, find the approximate value of y when x = 13 and z = 195.

Answers

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the approximate value of y when

x = 13 and z = 195 we must first find the relationship between them

The statement

y varies jointly with x and z is written as

y = kxz

where k is the constant of proportionality

From the question

y = 2

x = 11

z = 110

We have

2 = 11(110)k

2 = 1210k

Divide both sides by 1210

[tex]k = \frac{1}{605} [/tex]

So the formula for the variation is

[tex]y = \frac{1}{605} xz[/tex]

When

x = 13

z = 195

y is

[tex]y = \frac{1}{605} (13)(195)[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{507}{121} [/tex]

y = 4.1900

We have the final answer as

y = 4

Use the graph showing Phillip's account balance to answer the question that follows. ^

What is the interest rate on Phillip's account?

A - 3.3%

B - 6.7%

C - 9.0%

D - 15.3%

Answers

Answer:

A - 3.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph

Where x= 0

Amount =$ 450

It shows that$450 is the capital

Then

When x= 3

Amount=$494.55

So interest generated within 3 years

= $494.55-$450

=$ 44.55

When x= 9

Amount = $583.65

So interest generated within 9 years

= $583.65-$450

=$ 133.65

PRT/10= Interest

450*x*3/100= 44.55

1350x= 4455

X= 4455/1350

X= 3.3

So the rate is =3.3%

Three students were given the expression shown and were asked to take a common factor out of two of the terms. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements about whether each student's answer is an equivalent expression. Then choose an expression that is equivalent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 4 - 9x +21

Factorizing this expression, we have;

              4 -3(3x - 7)

i. Chang's expression: 4 - 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 -9x -21

ii. Benjamin's expression: 4 + 3(3x + 7)

This is not an equivalent expression, because by expansion of the bracket, the expression gives: 4 +9x +21

iii. Habib's expression: 4 + 12x

This is not an equivalent expression, because the expression is not related to the given question

Comparing the three student's answers with the appropriate expression, none of the student's is an equivalent expression.

This expression that is  equivalent to the given question is;

            4 -3(3x - 7) = 4 -9x + 21

Answer:

1,2,4

Step-by-step explanation:

According the the U.S. Department of Education, full-time graduate students receive an average salary of $15,000 with a standard deviation of $1,200. The dean of graduate studies at a large state university in PA claims that his graduate students earn more than this. He surveys 100 randomly selected students and finds their average salary is $16,000. Use a significance level of 0.05 to test if there is evidence that the dean's claim is correct. What are the hypotheses

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

population Mean = 15000

standard deviation= 1200

sample size n = 100

sample mean = 16000

The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

[tex]\mathtt{H_o : \mu = 15000 }\\ \\ \mathtt{H_1 : \mu > 15000}[/tex]

Using the standard normal z statistics

[tex]z = \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{16000 -15000}{\dfrac{1200 }{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{1000}{\dfrac{1200 }{10}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{1000\times 10}{1200}[/tex]

z = 8.333

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

level of significance ∝ = 0.05

P - value from the z score = 0.00003

Decision Rule: since the p value is lesser than the level of significance, we reject the null hypothesis

Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence  that the Dean claim for his graduate students earn more than average salary of $15,000

Dean's Claim of Average Salary = 16000, ie greater than 15000 : is correct

Null Hypothesis [ H0 ] : Average Salary = 15000

Alternate Hypothesis [ H1 ] : Average Salary > 15000

Hypothesis is tested using t statistic.

t = ( x - u ) / ( s / √ n ) ; where -

x = sample mean , u = population mean , s = standard deviation, n = sample size

t = ( 16000 - 15000 ) / ( 1200 / √100 )

= 1000 / 120

t  {Calculated} = 8.33,

Degrees of Freedom = n - 1 = 100 = 1 = 99

Tabulated t 0.05 (one tail) , at degrees of freedom 99 = 1.664

As Calculated t value 8.33 > Tabulated t value 1.664 , So we reject the Null Hypothesis in favour of Alternate Hypothesis.

So, conclusion : Average Salary > 15000
