The Intelligence Test Scale in a school is composed of a number of subtests. On one subtest, the raw scores have a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 6. Assuming these raw scores form a normal distribution: a) What number represents the 65th percentile (what number separates the lower 65% of the distribution)? b) What number represents the 90th percentile? c) What is the probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38? d) What is the probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44?.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) The 65th percentile is of 37.31.

b) The 90th percentile is of 42.68.

c) There is a 0.5705 = 57.05% probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38.

d) There is a 0.0919 = 9.19% probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44.

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

The mean is of 35, hence [tex]\mu = 35[/tex]The standard deviation is of 6, hence [tex]\sigma = 6[/tex]

Question a:

The 65th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.65, so X when Z = 0.385.

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

[tex]0.385 = \frac{X - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]X - 35 = 0.385(6)[/tex]

[tex]X = 37.31[/tex]

The 65th percentile is of 37.31.

Question b:

The 90th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]X - 35 = 1.28(6)[/tex]

[tex]X = 42.68[/tex]

The 90th percentile is of 42.68.

Question c:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 38 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 28, hence:

X = 38:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{38 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6915.

X = 28:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{28 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.17[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.17[/tex] has a p-value of 0.121.

0.6915 - 0.121 = 0.5705.

There is a 0.5705 = 57.05% probability of getting a raw score between 28 and 38.

Question d:

The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 44 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 41, hence:

X = 44:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{44 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

X = 41:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{41 - 35}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8413.

0.9332 - 0.8413 = 0.0919

There is a 0.0919 = 9.19% probability of getting a raw score between 41 and 44.

lf the volume of a sphere= 4.5π cm³ then the radius length is .....? ​

Answers

Answer:

Radius = 3.232 cm to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere = 4/3πr^3, so:

45π = 4/3πr^3     π is common to both sides, so:

45 = 4/3 r^3

r^3 = 45 * 3/4

r^3 = 33.75

r = 3.232 cm.

Which equations represent circles that have a diameter of 12 units and a center that lies on the y-axis? Select two options.

(x – 4)² + y² = 36
(x + 6)² + y² = 144
x2 + (y + 8)2 = 36

Answers

Answer:

x2 + (y + 8)2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

:) took the test

The equations which represent circles that have a diameter of 12 units and a center that lies on the y-axis are x² + (y – 3)² = 36 and x² + (y + 8)² = 36.

What is the Standard form of a Circle?

Standard form of a circle is given by the equation,

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where, (h, k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

Given that,

A circle has a diameter of 12 units.

So radius = 12 / 2 = 6 units

Center of the circle lies on the Y axis.

So the x coordinate of the center of the circle will be 0.

So, in (h, k), h = 0

So the equation will be of the form,

(x - 0)² + (y - k)² = 6²

x² + (y - k)² = 36

Hence the options are x² + (y – 3)² = 36 and x² + (y + 8)² = 36.

Explain what you would do first to simplify the expression below. Justify why, and then state the result of performing this step.

Answers

First clear the bracket of the inner fraction's numerator. This would allow you to reduce the inner fraction to lowest terms.

Given the expression

[tex](\frac{(2r^2t)^3}{4t^2})^2[/tex]

In order to simplify, note that the numerator and denominator of the fraction

[tex]\frac{(2r^2t)^3}{4t^2}[/tex]

have common factors. So, we would first remove the bracket in the numerator. This would allow us to reduce the fraction to lowest terms.

To clear the numerator's bracket, note that

[tex](2r^2t)^3=(2r^2t)\times(2r^2t)\times(2r^2t)\\=(2\times2\times2)\times(r^2\times r^2\times r^2)\times(t\times t\times t)\\=8\times r^6 \times t^3=8r^6 t^3[/tex]

that was long. The shorter way was to do the following

[tex](2r^2t)^3=2^3\times r^{2\times3}\times t^3=8r^6t^3[/tex]

so back to the original question, to simplify

[tex](\frac{(2r^2t)^3}{4t^2})^2[/tex]

we would do

[tex](\frac{(2r^2t)^3}{4t^2})^2=(\frac{2^3r^{2\times3}t^3}{4t^2})^2\\\\=(\frac{8r^6t^3}{4t^2})^2[/tex]

Now that we have removed the bracket from the numerator, we can now accomplish the step of reducing the fraction to lowest terms

[tex](\frac{8r^6t^3}{4t^2})^2=(\frac{8}{4}\times r^6\times \frac{t^3}{t^2})^2\\=(2\times r^6\times t^{3-2})^2\\=(2\times r^6\times t^1)^2\\=(2r^6t)^2[/tex]
