For a given population of high school seniors, the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) in mathematics has a mean score of 500 with a standard deviation of 100. Assume that the SAT scores are normally distributed. What is the probability that a randomly selected high school senior's score on mathe- matics part of SAT will be
(a) more than 675?
b) between 450 and 675?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected high school senior's score on mathematics part of SAT will be

(a) more than 675 is 0.0401

(b)between 450 and 675 is 0.6514

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of Sat =[tex]\mu = 500[/tex]

Standard deviation = [tex]\sigma = 100[/tex]

We will use z score over here

 What is the probability that a randomly selected high school senior's score on mathe- matics part of SAT will be

(a) more than 675?

P(X>675)

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\frac{675-500}{100}[/tex]

Z=1.75

P(X>675)=1-P(X<675)=1-0.9599=0.0401

b)between 450 and 675?

P(450<X<675)

At x = 675

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\frac{675-500}{100}[/tex]

Z=1.75

At x = 450

[tex]Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\frac{450-500}{100}[/tex]

Z=-0.5

P(450<X<675)=0.9599-0.3085=0.6514

Hence the probability that a randomly selected high school senior's score on mathematics part of SAT will be

(a) more than 675 is 0.0401

(b)between 450 and 675 is 0.6514

1. An integer is 3 less than 5 times another. If the product of the two integers is 36, then find the integers.

Answers

Answer:

3 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

3*5=15 and 15-3=12. The product of 3 and 12 is 36.

The integers are 3 and 12.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is a branch of mathematics dealing with symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols.

let the one integer be x.

Another integer = 5x - 3

According to question,

x *(5x-3 ) =36

5x ² -3 x =36

5x² -3 x - 36 = 0

5x² -15 x +12 x - 36 =0

5x( x-3) + 12 ( x -3) =0

(5x +12)( x- 3)=0

x= -12/5 or 3

So, the integers are 3 and 12.

A company manufactures fuel tanks for cars. The total weekly cost (in dollars) of producing x fuel tanks is given by ... C(x) = 10000 +90x - 0.08x2 Find the exact cost of producing the 501st item.

Answers

Answer:

cost of producing the 501st item = $9.92

Step-by-step explanation:

The function representing the cost is given by;

C(x) = 10000 + 90x - 0.08x²

To get the cost of producing the 501st item, we have to first find the cost of producing 500 items and then do the same for 501 items then subtract the values gotten.

Thus;

C(500) = 10000 + 90(500) - 0.08(500)²

C(500) = 10000 + 45000 - 20000

C(500) = $35000

Similarly;

C(501) = 10000 + 90(501) - 0.08(501)²

C(501) = 10000 + 45090 - 20080.08

C(501) = $35009.92

cost of producing the 501st item = C(501) - C(500) = 35009.92 - 35000 = $9.92

Rs.75,000
Rs.4,25,000
Rs. 1,75,000

Answers

Answer:

Rs. 2,50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

When a partnership distributes inventory items (hot asset) to its partners, the basis of the inventory items is used to record the transaction. Only when partnerships distribute assets other than hot assets will the fair market value of the assets be used to record the transaction.

The logic is that inventory items are valued at lower of cost or market value. This means that inventory items are already valued at FMV or cost, whichever is less. If the partnership recorded the transaction using Rs.1,75,000, then it would have to record a loss, and distributions cannot generate losses to a partnership. The only way to record the inventory items at Rs.1,75,000 is that previously the partnership writes down inventory.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, use the AC method to figure out, what times what equals 0 and what adds up to equal 10, which would be 0 and 10.

Secondly, you would factor it out and be with

(x + 0)(x +10)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Step: Solve x−2y=5 for x:

x−2y=5

x−2y+2y=5+2y (Add 2y to both sides)

x=2y+5

Step: Substitute 2y+5 for x in 3x+15y=−6:

3x+15y=−6

3(2y+5)+15y=−6

21y+15=−6 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

21y+15+−15=−6+−15 (Add -15 to both sides)

21y=−21

(Divide both sides by 21)

y=−1

Step: Substitute−1for y in x=2y+5:

x=2y+5

x=(2)(−1)+5

x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

A total of $5000 is invested: part at 5% and the remainder at 15%. How much is invested at each rate if the annual interest is $720?

Answers

Answer:

At 5% , $300 was invested

At 15%, $4,700 was invested

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount invested at 5% be $x and the amount invested at 15% be $y

x + y = 5000 ••••••(i)

Let’s work with the interest;

5% of x + 15% of y = 720

0.05x + 0.15y = 720 •••••(ii)

From i;

x = 5000-y

Insert this into ii

0.05(5000-y) + 0.15y = 720

= 250 - 0.05y + 0.15y = 720

250 + 0.1y = 720

0.1y = 720-250

0.1y = 470

y = 470/0.1

y = $4700

x = 5000-y

x = 5000-4700 = $300

A taxi ride costs $4 plus an additional $3 per mile. Write the equation for the line in slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y=3x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

4 is your y-intercept, and 3 is your slope.

The linear function shows the total cost will be y = 3x + 4.

What is a linear function?

A straight line on the coordinate plane is represented by a linear function.

A linear function always has the same and constant slope.

The formula for a linear function is f(x) = ax + b, where a and b are real values.

As per the given,

A taxi ride costs $4 plus an additional $3 per mile.

Let's say the number of miles is represented as x while the total cost is represented as y.

y = 3x + 4

Hence "The linear function shows the total cost will be y = 3x + 4".
