Answer:
456
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the SATscore scored by the students
Given that X is normal (1000,200)
By converting into standard normal variate we can say that
is N(0,1)
To find the top 10% we consider the 90th percentile for z score
Z 90th percentile = 1.28
i.e. only students who scored 456 or above only should be considered.
$235, I believe. 240-5=235.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
um
The answer would be $3472
Think of the 13-ft length of the ladder as the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Represent the horiz. distance from foot of ladder to base of tree by x, or 5 ft.
Represent the vert. dist. from base of tree to top of ladder by y, which is unknown.
Then (13 ft)^2 = (5 ft)^2 + y^2, or
169 ft^2 = 25 ft^2 + y^2. This simplifies to y^2 = 144. Thus y = + 12 feeet.
Note: Please pay attention to your spelling: "lader i up agenst a tree" should be "the top of a 13-ft ladder is placed against a tree."
