Answer:
Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Determine which test the student did better on.
He did better on whichever test he had the higher z-score.
SAT:
Scored 1070, so [tex]X = 1070[/tex]
SAT scores have a mean of 950 and a standard deviation of 155. This means that [tex]\mu = 950, \sigma = 155[/tex].
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{1070 - 950}{155}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.77[/tex]
ACT:
Scored 25, so [tex]X = 25[/tex]
ACT scores have a mean of 22 and a standard deviation of 4. This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = 4[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 22}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.75[/tex]
Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.

Find the value of a. a) 15 b) 10 c) 25 d) 20
Answer:
answer d) 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the two lines are parallel two by two, the figure is a parallelogram.
In a parallelogram the opposite corners are identical.
Given:
opposite corner1 = 130°
opposite corner2= (6a + 10)°
Because corner1 = corner2 we now have:
(6a + 10) = 130
6a + 0 = 130 -10
6a = 120
a = 20
Which is answer d).

A bag contains 7 red and 10 white balls. In how many ways 4 balls are selected if there are more than 2 red balls? (Please solve it using counting rule; combination rule.)
Answer:
385 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
7 red balls
10 white balls
In how many ways can 4 balls be selected if there are more than 2 red balls.
Selecting 4 balls which must contain more than 2 red balls, will be 3 red balls and 1 white ball to make it 4 in total, or all the 4 balls selected will red balls.
= 3 red balls and 1 white ball OR 4 red balls
= 7C₃ x 10C₁ + 7C₄
[tex]= \frac{7!}{4!3!} *\frac{10!}{9!1!} \ \ + \ \frac{7!}{3!4!} \\\\= (35*10) \ + \ 35\\\\= 350 \ + 35\\\\= 385 \ ways[/tex]
Therefore, there are 385 ways of selecting 4 balls, if there are more than 2 red balls.
2. Students who wish to represent the school at a school board meeting are asked to stop
by the office after lunch. After lunch, 5 students wish to represent the school.
Answer: Biased sample
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a biased sample because only students with strong opinions are likely going to volunteer or show interest in representing the school at the board meeting. This sample is a voluntary type sample, and at such the conclusion is not valid. This sample is biased because a group or population of students have a higher or lower sampling probability.

A. $3,130.36 B. $2,680.36 C. $3,180.36 D. $3,123.53 D. $2,664.29
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question; we are given the following inclusive frequency distribution information
Class Frequency f
1.1-1.5 18
1.6-2.0 27
2.1-2.5 31
2.6-3.0 40
3.1-3.5 56
3.6-4.0 55
4.1-4.5 23
Convert the above inclusive frequency distribution to exclusive frequency distribution with respect of the upper and lower class limit ; we have:
Class Frequency f
1.05 - 1.55 18
1.55 - 2.05 27
2.05 - 2.55 31
2.55 - 3.05 40
3.05 - 3.55 56
3.55 - 4.05 55
4.05 - 4.55 23
Class Frequency f cf
1.05 - 1.55 18 18
1.55 - 2.05 27 45
2.05 - 2.55 31 76
2.55 - 3.05 40 116
3.05 - 3.55 56 172
3.55 - 4.05 55 227
4.05 - 4.55 23 250
n = 250
To determine the daily sales; we can derive that from estimated Mode by using the relation :
Estimated Mode = L + fm − fm-1(fm − fm-1) + (fm − fm+1) × w
here:
L = the lower class boundary of the modal group
fm-1 = the frequency of the group before the modal group
fm = the frequency of the modal group
fm+1 = the frequency of the group after the modal group
w = the group width
However;
It is easier now to determine the modal group (i.e the group with the highest frequency), which is 3.05 -3.55
L = 3.05
fm-1 =40
fm =56
fm+1 = 55
w = 0.5
∴[tex]mode = 3.05 + \dfrac{56 - 40 }{(56 - 40) + (56 -55)} * 0.5 \\ \\ mode = 3.05 + 0.4705 \\ \\ mode = 3.5205[/tex]
To find Median Class ; we use the formula;
Median Class = value of (n / 2)th observation
Median Class = value of (250 / 2)th observation
Median Class = value of 125th observation
From the column of cumulative frequency cf,
we will see that the 125th observation lies in the class 3.05-3.55.
∴ The median class is 3.05-3.55.
Thus;,
L=lower boundary point of median class =3.05
n=Total frequency =250
cf=Cumulative frequency of the class preceding the median class =116
f=Frequency of the median class =56
c=class length of median class =0.5
[tex]Median M=L+n2-cff- c \\ \\ =3.05+125-11656⋅0.5 \\ \\=3.05+0.08036 \\ \\ =3.13036[/tex]
hence median sales = $3130.36
What is the equation of the line perpendicular to y = 2/3x+1that passes through the point (12, -6)?
Answer:[tex]y=-\frac{3}{2} x+12[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have inversely proportional slopes. So make the slope negative and switch it to its reciprocal.
2/3x would change into -3/2x
Lets write that down for a starting point for our perpendicular line.
y = -3/2x + b
We were given the x and y value via the coords. x = 12 and y = -6
Now we have -6 = -3/2(12) + b. Multiply -3 and 12 to get -36, then divide by 2 to get -18. Now it's -6 = -18 + b. Solve for b by adding 18 to both sides to get b = 12

What is the domain of the function on the graph?
all real numbers
all real numbers greater than or equal to 0
O all real numbers greater than or equal to -2
all real numbers greater than or equal to -3
HELP PLEASE
Answer:
All real numbers greater than or equal to -3
Step-by-step explanation:
First look at graph where the line points to which direction of the graph
And look for any closed or open circles in the graph
Since in the graph has a close circle at (-3,-2) meaning it includes that x-value for its domain.
With the graph going to positive infinity it states that the domain is all real numbers.
So in conclusion it has a domain of all real numbers greater than or equal to -3
Wisconsin Public Radio wants to duplicate a survey conducted in 2011 that found that 68% of adults living in Wisconsin felt that the country was going in the wrong direction. How many people would need to be surveyed for a 90% confidence interval to ensure the margin of error would be less than 3%? Be sure to show all your work and round appropriately
Answer:
655 people would need to be surveyed.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\pi = 0.68[/tex]
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
90% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].
How many people would need to be surveyed for a 90% confidence interval to ensure the margin of error would be less than 3%?
We need to survey n adults.
n is found when M = 0.03. So
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.03 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.68*0.32}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.68*0.32}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.68*0.32}}{0.03}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.68*0.32}}{0.03})^{2}[/tex]
[tex]n = 654.3[/tex]
Rounding up
655 people would need to be surveyed.

A bank wants to attract new customers for its credit card. The bank tries two different approaches in the marketing campaign. The first promises a cash back reward; the second promises low interest rates. A sample of 500 people is called the first brochure; of these, 100 get the credit card. A separate sample of 500 people is called the second brochure; 125 get the credit card. The bank wants to know if the two campaigns are equally attractive to customers. What is a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions is written as
Difference in sample proportions ± margin of error
Sample proportion, p= x/n
Where x = number of success
n = number of samples
For the first brochure,
x = 100
n1 = 500
p1 = 100/500 = 0.2
For the second brochure
x = 125
n2 = 500
p2 = 125/500 = 0.25
Margin of error = z√[p1(1 - p1)/n1 + p2(1 - p2)/n2]
To determine the z score, we subtract the confidence level from 100% to get α
α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025
This is the area in each tail. Since we want the area in the middle, it becomes
1 - 0.025 = 0.975
The z score corresponding to the area on the z table is 1.96. Thus, the z score for confidence level of 95% is 1.96
Margin of error = 1.96 × √[0.2(1 - 0.2)/500 + 0.25(1 - 0.25)/500]
= 1.96 × √0.000695
= 0.052
Confidence interval = (0.2 - 0.25) ± 0.052
= - 0.05 ± 0.052

Answer:
So we can use geometric progression each time multiplying by 0.0475
so thats (275*0.0475)*10
So that means that we would get
130.625 so we subtract that from 275
275-130.625=144.375
That would be

PLEASE HELP the inverse of the function graphed below is a function
True or false
Functions
Function NotationVertical Line Test
ApplicationStep 1: DefineLet's see what we are given.
We are given a graph of an inverse of a function.
Step 2: IdentifyWe need to figure out whether the graphed inverse function is a function or not.
By the definition of a function, we know that every x input must correlate with one y output. In layman's terms, each respective x input has its own specific y output.
This definition builds the foundation of the Vertical Line Test. We can use this simple "tool" to verify whether or not a given graph is a function or not.
By placing a vertical line "on" the graph, we can move it to determine whether an x input has only one y output.If a graph passes the Vertical Line Test, it is said to be a function.If a graph fails the Vertical Line Test, it is said to not be a function, but rather a relation, etc.Step 3: TestWhen we apply the Vertical Line Test to the graphed inverse function, we can see that every x input has only one specific y output.
∴ we can conclude that the graphed inverse function is indeed a function.
