An English professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 13% of scores B: Scores below the top 13% and above the bottom 61% C: Scores below the top 39% and above the bottom 20% D: Scores below the top 80% and above the bottom 10% F: Bottom 10% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 72.8 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

Solution :

The test is distributed normally with mean of 72.8 and the standard deviation of 7.3

Finding numerical limits for the D grade.

D grade : Scores below the top 80% and above the bottom 10%.

Let the bottom limit for D grade be [tex]$D_1$[/tex] and the top limit for D grade be [tex]$D_2$[/tex].

First find the bottom numerical limit for a D grade is :

[tex]$P(X<D_1)= 0.10$[/tex]

[tex]$P(X\leq D_1)= 0.10$[/tex]

[tex]$P\left(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{D_1-\mu}{\sigma}\right) = 0.10$[/tex]

[tex]$P\left(Z \leq \frac{D_1-72.8}{7.3}\right) = 0.10$[/tex]    ..........(1)

From (1)

[tex]$\frac{D_1 - 72.8}{7.3} = -1.28$[/tex]

[tex]$D_1 = -1.28(7.3)+72.8$[/tex]

      = 63.45

       ≈ 64

Now the top numerical limit for D grade :

[tex]$P(X>D_2)= 0.80$[/tex]

[tex]$1-P(X\leq D_2)= 0.80$[/tex]

[tex]$P(X\leq D_2)= 1-0.80$[/tex]

[tex]$P(X\leq D_2)= 0.20$[/tex]

[tex]$P\left(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{D_2-\mu}{\sigma}\right) = 0.20$[/tex]

[tex]$P\left(Z \leq \frac{D_2-72.8}{7.3}\right) = 0.20$[/tex]    ..........(2)

From (2)

[tex]$\frac{D_2- 72.8}{7.3} = -0.84$[/tex]

[tex]$D_12= -0.84(7.3)+72.8$[/tex]

      = 66.668

       ≈ 67

Therefore, the numerical limit for a D grade is 64 to 67.

Find the equation of the line with slope m=1 that contains the point (1,2)

Answers

Answer:

y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the point-slope formula to write an equation for this problem. The point-slope formula states: (y - y1) = m (x - x1)

Where m is the slope and (x1 y1) is a point the line passes through.

Substituting the slope and the values from the point in the problem gives:

( y - 2 ) = 1 ( x - 1 )

We can also solve for y to put the equation in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y = mx + b

y - 2 = 1x - 1

y = 1x - 1 + 2

y = 1x + 1 or y = x + 1 * are just the same.

The equation of the line is y = x + 1.

What is a slope?

The slope and direction of a line are represented numerically by the line's gradient, which is also referred to as the slope in mathematics.

If a line passes through two points (x₁ ,y₁) and (x₂, y₂) ,

then the equation of line is

y - y₁ = (y₂- y₁) / (x₂ - x₁) x (x - x₁)

To find the slope;

m =  (y₂- y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

And here we have the slope,

m = 1

And (x₁ ,y₁)  =  (1,2)

then the equation of line is

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

y - 2 = (x -1)

y = x + 1

Therefore, the equation is y = x + 1.

5 cm
10 cm
5 cm
apothem = 3.6 cm
SA = [ ? ] cm2

Answers

Answer:

Total surface area = 340 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the given prism = Area of two bases + Area of its lateral surfaces

Area of pentagonal base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Apothem)}(\text{Perimeter})[/tex]

                                          = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(3.6)(5\times 5)[/tex]

                                          = 45 cm²

Area of the lateral sides of the prism = Perimeter of the pentagonal base × height

= (5×5)×10

= 250 cm²

Total surface area of the prism = 2(45) + 250

                                                     = 90 + 250

                                                     = 340 cm²

Angle ABF is 77

b) Which one of these justifies your answer?

A- corresponding angles

B - alternate angles

C- vertically opposite angles

Answers

Answer:

a) 77    b)B

Step-by-step explanation:

letterF is the same as 77 meaning that X will be the same as letterF cause the are vertically opposite angles.

I just did the question on math watch.

The measure of the angle ∠BFH that is 'x' will be 77 degrees. Then the correct option is B.

What is an angle?

The inclination is the separation seen between planes or vectors that meet. Degrees are another way to indicate the slope. For a full rotation, the angle is 360 °.

Alternate angle - If two lines are parallel then the third line will make z -an angle and z-angles equal angles with the parallel lines.

Line AD is parallel to line EH. And the line CG is the transversal line to line AD and EH.

The angle ∠FAB is congruent with the angle ∠BFH. Because they are alternate angles. Then we have

∠BFH = ∠FAB

x = 77°

The measure of the angle ∠BFH that is 'x' will be 77 degrees. Then the correct option is B.

Answers

A is the answer to your question

Displacement means the distance traveled on a straight line to get to a certain destination. The interpretation of the given equation is option (a):

Given that:

[tex]f(x) = (x + 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)[/tex]

First, we calculate how far the student traveled to arrive at the school.

This means that we calculate f(0).

So, we have:

[tex]f(0) = (0 + 1)(0 - 2)(0 - 3)[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = ( 1)( - 2)( - 3)[/tex]

[tex]f(0) = 6[/tex]

The student walked 6km to school

When x = 2, it means:

[tex]f(x) = (x + 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = (2 + 1)(2-2)(2 -3) = 0[/tex]

This means that the student got to school after 2 minutes

When x = 3, it means

[tex]f(x) = (x + 1)(x - 2)(x - 3)[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = (3 + 1)(3-2)(3 -3) = 0[/tex]

This means that the student walked away, turned back and got to school after 3 minutes.

From the given options, option (a) fits the above description.

an = -2 · (-3) n - 1
an = 2 · (-3) n - 1
an = -3 · 2 n - 1
an = -3 · (-2) n - 1

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for any geometric sequence is:

[tex]a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

Where aₙ is the value of the nth term, a₁ is the value of the first term, r represents the common ratio, and n represents the term number.

We want the formula for the geometric sequence:

-3, -6, -12, -24, ...

Note that our first term is -3. Hence, a₁ = -3.

Next, each subsequent term is twice the previous term. Hence, our common ratio r = 2.

Therefore, by substitution, we acquire:

[tex]a_n=-3\cdot (2)^{n-1}[/tex]

Our answer is C.

a. f(t) = 100,000 0.012^t
b. f(t) = 100,000(1 + 1.2)^t
c. f(t) = 100,000(1 + 0.012)^t
d. f(t) = 100,000 - 1.2^t

Answers

Given:

Initial profit = $100,000

Increasing rate of profit = 1.2%

To find:

The function that shows the company's profit as a function of time in years.

Solution:

The exponential growth model is defined as:

[tex]f(t)=a(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where, a is the initial value, b is the growth rate and t is the time period.

Putting a=100,000 and r=0.012, we get

[tex]f(t)=100,000(1+0.012)^t[/tex]

Where, t is the number of years.

Therefore, the correct option is c.

What Is an Isosceles Triangle?

A triangle with two sides of equal length is an isosceles triangle. The isosceles triangle has three acute angles, meaning that the angles are less than 90°. The sum of three angles of an isosceles triangle is always 180°.

In an isosceles triangle, the two equal sides are called legs, and the remaining side is called the base. The angle opposite the base is called the vertex angle

The three types of Isosceles Triangles are :

Isosceles acute triangle

Isosceles right triangle

Isosceles obtuse triangle

Given data ,

Let the triangle be represented as ABC

Now , the measure of angle ∠A = 24°

It is an isosceles triangle with ∠B = ∠C

So , the measures of the two angles are the same

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

x + x + 24° = 180°

On simplifying the equation , we get

2x = 156°

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation , we get

x = 78°

Hence , the measure of x = 78°
