Gibson (1986) asked a sample of college students to complete a self-esteem scale on which the midpoint of the scale was the score 108. He found that the average self-esteem score for this sample was 135.2, well above the actual midpoint of the scale. Given that the standard deviation of self-esteem scores was 28.15, what would the z score be for a person whose self-esteem score was 101.6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The z-score for a person whose self-esteem score was 101.6 would be of -0.227.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Gibson (1986) asked a sample of college students to complete a self-esteem scale on which the midpoint of the scale was the score 108.

This means that [tex]\mu = 108[/tex]

The standard deviation of self-esteem scores was 28.15

This means that [tex]\sigma = 28.15[/tex]

What would the z score be for a person whose self-esteem score was 101.6

This is Z when X = 101.6. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{101.6 - 108}{28.15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.227[/tex]

The z-score for a person whose self-esteem score was 101.6 would be of -0.227.

cost of tank tops

20 / 5 = $4 each

cost of t-shirts

35 / 5 = $7 each

7 - 4 = $3

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Approach

To solve this problem, one must first find the cost of each product. This can be done by diving the price by the amount of each product. After finding the unit price of each product, one will subtract the cost of the tank-top from the cost of the t-shirt.

2.The unit price of a t-shirt

It is the given that 5 t-shirts cost $35. Divide the price of the shirts by the number of shirts to find the cost of each individual shirt.

35 ÷ 5 = 7

Each individual t-shirt costs $7.

3.The unit price of a tank-top

It is given that 5 tank-tops cost $20. Divide the price of the tank-tops by the number of tank-tops to fund the unit price of each tank-top.

20 ÷ 5 = 4

Each tank-top costs $4.

4.Find out how much more each shirt costs

Now subtract the price of the unit price of the tank-top from the unit price of the t-shirt.

(t-shirt) - (tank-top)

= 7 - 4

= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

When you put the first equation in standard form by dividing it by 2, you get ...

  x -2y = 4

When you put the second equation in standard form by dividing it by 8, you get ...

  x -2y = 4

These are the same equation, so describe the same line. There are an infinite number of (x, y) pairs that will satisfy this equation.

What is the perimeter and area of the composite figure?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

▪AB = AC - EF

▪BD = CF - DE

= 16 - 8 cm

= 8 cm

BC = EF

perimeter = CF + EF + DE + AD + AB + BC

= 16 + 7 + 8 + 10 + 6 + 7

= 54 cm

Area of triangles = 1/2 × AB × BD

= 1/2 × 6 × 8

= 48/2

= 24 cm²

Area of rectangle = CF × EF

= 16 × 7

= 112 cm²

the total area = 24 + 112

Nutritionists measured the sugar content (in grams) for 32 drinks at Jake's Java

coffee shop. The drinks had a mean sugar content of 18g and a standard

deviation of 5g, and the distribution was roughly symmetric.

Question 1: Grande Mocha Cappuccino at Jake's Java contains 14 g of sugar.

Calculate the standardized score (z-score) for the Grande Mocha Cappuccino.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z = -0.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 32[/tex] --- samples

[tex]\mu = 18g[/tex] --- mean

[tex]\sigma =5g[/tex] --- standard deviation

[tex]x = 14g[/tex] --- observed value

Required

Find the standardized score

This is calculated as:

[tex]z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

So:

[tex]z = \frac{14g -18g}{5g}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{-4g}{5g}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{-4}{5}[/tex]

[tex]z = -0.8[/tex]

The standardized score is -0.8
