Answer:
PQ = 6.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides of similar shapes or figures are proportional to each other. Since ∆LMN ~ ∆OPQ, the ratio of their corresponding sides would therefore be equal. Thus:
LN/OQ = MN/PQ
LN = 5
OQ = 17
MN = 2
PQ = ?
Plug in the values
5/17 = 2/PQ
Cross multiply
5*PQ = 2*17
5*PQ = 34
PQ = 34/5
PQ = 6.8
Answer:
D. a = 60 and b = 58.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
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.
Z-score for data point a is 0.
This means that a is the mean, that is, a = 60.
The z-score for data point b is -0.4.
This means that b must be a value below the mean, that is, a value below 60.
The option that satisfies a = 60 and b < 60 is option D, which is the answer.
