Given:
μ = 68 in, population mean
σ = 3 in, population standard deviation
Calculate z-scores for the following random variable and determine their probabilities from standard tables.
x = 72 in:
z = (x-μ)/σ = (72-68)/3 = 1.333
P(x) = 0.9088
x = 64 in:
z = (64 -38)/3 = -1.333
P(x) = 0.0912
x = 65 in
z = (65 - 68)/3 = -1
P(x) = 0.1587
x = 71:
z = (71-68)/3 = 1
P(x) = 0.8413
Part (a)
For x > 72 in, obtain
300 - 300*0.9088 = 27.36
Answer: 27
Part (b)
For x ≤ 64 in, obtain
300*0.0912 = 27.36
Answer: 27
Part (c)
For 65 ≤ x ≤ 71, obtain
300*(0.8413 - 0.1587) = 204.78
Answer: 204
Part (d)
For x = 68 in, obtain
z = 0
P(x) = 0.5
The number of students is
300*0.5 = 150
Answer: 150
The best measure of center tendency for this set of data would be the median. It is the best measurement because the data set has an outlier. The outlier is the 30. So to find the median we first order the data set and then find out if the set is an even or odd set. This set is even so we just chose the middle number. If the set was even, we would add the two center number and divide them by 2.
3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 30
The center tendency = 4
Answer:
The factors of x^2+3x-4 are (x-1)(x+4) ....
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the factors of x^2+3x-4
As we know that this is a quadratic equation.
So we have to find the roots first.
The roots are -1 and 4.
Now completing the quadratic formula using the roots we have :
x^2+4x-x-4
Make a pair of first two terms and last two terms:
(x^2+4x)-(x+4)
Now take out the common from each pair:
x(x+4)-1(x+4)
(x-1)(x+4)
Thus the factors of x^2+3x-4 are (x-1)(x+4) ....
Answer:
see the procedure
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
so
The value of digit 8 in 1.8 is 0.8
The value of digit 8 in 486 is 80
Divide the numbers
80/0.8=100
therefore
The value of the digit 8 in 486 is 100 times greater than the value of digit 8 in 1.8
or
The value of the digit 8 in 1.8 is 100 times less than the value of digit 8 in 486
Write and solve an equation of ratios:
900 students 45 teachers
------------------ = -----------------
x 110 teachers
Cross multiplying, we get (900)(110) / 45, or
so x = # of students in the high school = 2200 (answer)
