Using the normal distribution, it is found that there are 68 students with scores between 72 and 82.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem, the mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

\mu = 72, \sigma = 10

The proportion of students with scores between 72 and 82 is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 82 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 72</u>.

X = 82:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{82 - 72}{10}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a p-value of 0.84.

X = 72:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{72 - 72}{10}

Z = 0

Z = 0 has a p-value of 0.5.

0.84 - 0.5 = 0.34.

Out of 200 students, the number is given by:

0.34 x 200 = 68 students with scores between 72 and 82.

Answer:

a) 3/100

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 25 total chips

P(Yellow) = 3/25

With no replacement P(Blue) = 6/24 = 1/4

Multiply 3/25* 1/4= 3/100

Given segment AC and point B that lies on AC, if AB = 9 and BC= 49, find AC
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's draw this out (see attachment).

We know that since B lies on AC, we have the points in order from left to right: A, B, C.

AB = 9, which is the left portion. BC = 49, which is the right portion. Then AC is simply the sum:

AC = AB + BC = 9 + 49 = 58

The answer is thus 58.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the points that are on the graph by finding the order pair (x, y) We are given the x value, so substitute x in the given equation f(x) and find y.

The graph is a line
