A large group of students took a test in physics and the final grades have a mean of 70 with a standard deviation of 10. If the graph of the scores has normal distribution, what percentile would a student be in if they earned an A on the test? (a is a score ≥ 90)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:
The student's score closest to 91 percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scores on the standardized test are approximately normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = test scores.

µ = mean score

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 480

σ = 90

If a student has a score of 600, then x = 600

For x = 600,

z = (600 - 480)/90 = 1.33

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.91

the student's score closest to 91 percentile.

Answer 2

The graph of the scores has normal distribution and percentile would a student be in if they earned an A on the test is 97.72%

What is Normal Distribution?

An example of a continuous probability distribution is the normal distribution, in which the majority of data points cluster in the middle of the range while the remaining ones taper off symmetrically toward either extreme. The distribution's mean is another name for the centre of the range.

Normal distributions are symmetric, uni-modal, and asymptotic, and the mean, median, and mode are all equal

A data set (when graphed) must follow a bell-shaped symmetrical curve centered around the mean

Given data ,

To determine the percentile a student would be in if they earned an A (a score ≥ 90) on the physics test, we need to calculate the z-score corresponding to the score of 90 and then find the percentile associated with that z-score.

The z-score is a measure of how many standard deviations a particular value is away from the mean in a normal distribution

z = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the value, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation

In this case, we have:

x = 90 (the score for an A)

μ = 70 (the mean)

σ = 10 (the standard deviation)

Plugging these values into the z-score formula

z = (90 - 70) / 10 = 20 / 10 = 2

The z-score of 2 indicates that the score of 90 is 2 standard deviations above the mean in a normal distribution

The percentile associated with a z-score of 2 is approximately 97.72%

Hence , if a student earned a score of 90 or above on the physics test, they would be in the 97.72th percentile

Answer:

Factored form: (x+4)(x+5) = 0

x = -5 or -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor x^2 + 9x + 20, we need to find 2 numbers that multiply to 20 and add up to 9.

The reason for that is because when you multiply (x+a)(x+b) using FOIL, you will get x^2 + ax + bx + ab.

Anyway, 4 and 5 would satisfy this, because 4+5 = 9 and 4*5 = 20. We can then factor the equation to (x+4)(x+5).

To solve (x+4)(x+5) = 0, we need to make either x+4 = 0 or x+5 = 0. That means x can be either -5 or -4.

A person invests 4500 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 5.75% interest compounded semi-annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the money in the bank until it reaches 10000 dollars?

Answers

Answer:

Around 10.6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

5.75% of 4500 is 258.75

then we will need to subtract the current amount from the final amount.

10000-4500=5500

next

5500/258.75=21.256

finally

21.256/2=10.628

The person leaves the money in the bank until it reaches 10000 dollars.

We have given that

A person invests 4500 dollars in a bank.

The bank pays 5.75% interest compounded semi-annually.

Therefore we have,

What is compounded semi-annually?

The principal of a loan or investment at the beginning of the compounding period, in this case, every six months, includes the total interest from each previous period

5.75% of 4500 is 258.75

[tex]=\frac{5.75}{100}\times 4500\\ =258.75[/tex]

Then we will need to subtract the current amount from the final amount.

10000-4500=5500

5500/258.75=21.256

21.256/2=10.628

The person leaves the money in the bank until it reaches 10000 dollars.

Elaine is in London for one day only. She only has time to see two shows of the three shows she likes. The shows are Hamilton, Aladdin and Thriller. She makes her choice of the two shows at random. What is the probability that she sees Aladdin and Thriller?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

All three shows she likes are Hamilton, Aladdin, and Thriller.

But she can watch only two shows among the three shown.

The possible combination of the shows she can watch are

(Hamilton and Aladdin), (Aladdin and Thriller) and (Hamilton and Thriller).

So, the total number of possible events (available options)= 3.

As we have to determine the probability of watching Aladdin and Thriller, so here Aladdin and Thriller is the favorable event.

So, the number of favorable event=1

Now,

[tex]\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Total number of possible events}}{\text{Total number of favorable events}}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that she sees Aladdin and Thriller is [tex]\frac 1 3[/tex].

If a function is defined by the equation y=12x−32, which equation defines the inverse of this function?

A. y=2x+3
B. y=2x+32
C. y=2x−3
D. y=2x−32

Answers

Answer:

A. Y=2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

because im right

If a function is defined by the equation y = 2x−32, the equation that defines the inverse of this function would be: B. y=2x+32

How to determine the inverse

To determine the inverse of the function, we would first replace x with y in the function:

y = 2x - 32

x = 2y - 32

x + 32 = 2y

Divide both sides by 2

x/2 + 32/2 = y

f−1(x) = x/2 + 32/2

The common facot between the denominatoes of the values is 2. So, when expanded, we have;

(x + 32)/2

So, the closest option that represents the inverse is B. y=2x+32.
