The percentage of the scores that are between 75.8 and 89 is; 95%

<h3>How to find the percentage from z-score?</h3>

We are given;

Population mean; μ

Standard deviation; σ = 3.3

Thus;

z-score for a mean score of 75.8 is;

z = (75.8 - 82.4)/3.3

z = -2

z-score for a mean score of 89 is;

z = (89 - 82.4)/3.3

z = 2

From online p-value from z-score calculator, the p-value between both z-scores is;

p-value = 0.9545 = 95.45%

Approximating to the nearest percent = 95%

A person's metabolic rate is the rate at which the body consumes energy. Metabolic rate is important in studies of weight gain,
cupoosta [38]

Let m be mean

Mean= sum/ n

Mean= (1720+1687+1367+1614+1460+1867+1436) / 7

m= 11151 / 7

M= 1593

Mean= 1593

Standard deviation

|x-m|^2

For 1st: |1720-1593|^2=8836

For 2nd: |1687-1593|^2=10201

For 3rd: |1367-1593|^2=51076

For 4th: |1614-1593|^2=441

For 5th: |1460-1593|^2=1689

For 6th: |1867-1593|^2=75076

For 7th: |1436-1593|^2=24649

Summation of |x-m|^2 = 171968

Standard deviation sample formula is:

S.D = sqrt((summation of |x-m|^2) / n-1)

S.D=sqrt(171968/6)

S.D=sqrt(28661.33)

S.D=169.30

Standard deviation is 169.30

"the sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 12. The difference of the digits is 2. find the number if the units digit is lar
Stells [14]

let the number be xy then

x + y = 12

y - x = 2 ( because y > x)

adding we get 2y = 14 so y = 7

and x = 12 - 7 = 5

So the number is 57.

For what values of a is the value of the binomial 2a−1 smaller than the value of the binomial 7−1.2a by 7?
Nimfa-mama [501]

ANSWER

a =  \frac{5}{16}

EXPLANATION

We want to find the value of a for which the binomial, 2a-1 is smaller than the value of the binomial 7-1.2a by 7.

This means that, when we subtract 2a-1 from 7-1.2a, we should get 7.

7 - 1.2a - (2a - 1) = 7

Expand:

7 - 1.2a - 2a  + 1= 7

Group similar terms:

- 1.2a - 2a = 7 - 7 - 1

- 3.2a =   - 1

Divide both sides by -3.2,

a =  \frac{ - 1}{ - 3.2}

a =  \frac{5}{16}

The University of Montana ski team has thirteen entrants in a men's downhill ski event. The coach would like the first, second,
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

1716 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of entrants = 13

The number of ways of attaining first, second and third position :

The number of ways of attaining first ; only 1 person can be first ;

Using permutation :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

13P1 = 13! ÷ 12! = 13

Second position :

We have 12 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

12P1 = 12! ÷ 11! = 12

Third position :

We have 11 entrants left :

nPr = n! ÷(n-r)!

11P1 = 11! ÷ 10! = 11

Hence, Number of ways = (13 * 12 * 11) = 1716 ways
