Raw scores on a certain standardized test one year were normally distributed, with a mean of 156 and a standard deviation of 23. If

48,592 students took the test, about how many of the students scored less than 96?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

About 220 of the students scored less than 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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.

Mean of 156 and a standard deviation of 23.

This means that [tex]\mu = 156, \sigma = 23[/tex]

Proportion that scored less than 96:

p-value of Z when X = 96. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{96 - 156}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.61[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.61[/tex] has a p-value of 0.00453.

About how many of the students scored less than 96?

0.00453 out of 48592.

0.00453*48592 = 220.1.

Rounding to the closest integer:

About 220 of the students scored less than 96

Answer:

I believe it would be D

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it implies that if A is true, then B is true, it would be D.

"If A" implies that it can be both true or false, but "then B" implies that it must be B if A is true.

Hence my choice of D.

What is XY ?

A 30
B. 35
C. 40
D. 50

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Chords having equal measures are equidistant from the center of the circle.

Since, VW = XY

Therefore, ZP = ZR = 15 units

A perpendicular line drawn from the center of a circle to the chord is the bisector of the chord.

VR = WR = 20 units

By applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔZRV,

ZV² = ZR² + VR²

ZV² = (15)² + (20)²

ZV = √(225 + 400)

ZV = √625

ZV = 25 units

Therefore, measure of radius ZV = 25 units.

VW = XY [Given]

Therefore, XY = 2(20)

                        = 40 units

Collect like terms

[tex]2x-x=12 - 5[/tex]

[tex]x = 7[/tex]

Answer:

a. Semester 1: 86.8, Semester 2: 87

b. Semester 1: 5.7, Semester 2: 6.3

c. Semester 1 because the standard deviation of the first semester was lower than of the second. This shows that his scores were closer to the mean and therefore he was more consistent.

Step-by-step explanation: Find the mean by taking the sum of the values for each semester and divide that sum by the number of values to find the average. Do this for both semesters. Now, find the absolute value of the difference between the mean and each value of the corresponding data set. Square each if those differences and sum them up. Now divide that sum by the number of data values and take the square root. This number is your standard deviation. You will use the standard deviations to make the comparison for part c.

Step-by-step explanation:

You recognize the ratio of the long side to the short side as 2 : 1, so you know this is the 1 : √3 : 2 "special" triangle that has angles 30°, 60°, 90°. The angle of interest is opposite the longer side, so is the 60° angle.

  x° = 60°

_____

In case you don't remember the "special" 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 right triangles, you can use the relevant trig function:

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  cos(x°) = 16/32 = 1/2

  x° = arccos(1/2)

  x° = 60°

Answer:

x = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Becuase this is a quadrilateral,  the opposite angles total 180 degrees. So, the opposite of x is 92. That would mean that x + 92 = 180. We subtract 92 from both non-variable sides to get the x by itself. 180 - 92 = 88. 92 - 92 = 0. this leaves us with X = 88

Figure A maps to figure B with a scale factor of 0.25​

Answers

Answer:

x would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

This is becuase since the scale factor from Fig A to B is 0.25, the length of all of the sides follows this rule.

Since x on Fig A and 1.5 on Fig B are corresponding sides, you can do:

x * 0.25 = 1.5

x * 0.25 (4) = 1.5 (4)

x * 1 =6

x = 6
