In a recent study on world​ happiness, participants were asked to evaluate their current lives on a scale from 0 to​ 10, where 0

represents the worst possible life and 10 represents the best possible life. The mean response was 5.4, with a standard deviation of 2.3.
(a) What response represents the 86th percentile? (Round to two decimal places as needed).
​(b) What response represents the 55th ​percentile? (Round to two decimal places as needed).
​(c) What response represents the first ​quartile? (Round to two decimal places as needed).

The response that represents the 86th percentile is 7.884

The response that represents the 55th percentile is 5.69

The response that represents the first percentile 3.85

<h3 /><h3>How to solve for the 86th percentile</h3>

mean = 5.4

sd = 2.3

p(X>x) = 0.86

find the value of z using the NORMSINV function in excel with a probability of 0.86

z = 1.080

x = mean + sd*z

= 5.4 + 2.3 * 1.080

= 7.88

<h3>How  to solve for the 55th percentile</h3>

mean = 5.4

sd = 2.3

p(X>x) = 0.55

find the value of z using the NORMSINV function in excel with a probability of 0.55

z = 0.1257

x = mean + sd*z

= 5.4 + 2.3 * 0.1257

= 5.69

c. The first quartile is 25%

z = -0.6745

5.4 + 2.3 * -0.6745

= 5.4-1.551

= 3.85

Whats the next number 2 7 8 3 12 9
fredd [130]
<span>The next number should be 4. If you look at every other number, even and odd alternate. 2 is even, 7 is odd, etc. Since 9 is odd, the next number should be even. To figure out what number specifically, you will want to break up the numbers into three columns. 2 3 __ 7 12 17 8 9 10 From here, you can see that the pattern will be adding 1 for the top row, 5 for the middle row, and 1 for the bottom row. Since the unknown number is on the top right of the first row, you will add 1 to 3, and the answer is 4.</span>

How do you know when to add numbers? what is the sign rule
VARVARA [1.3K]

The most familiar case is that where you see a " + " sign between two numbers; that's an indication to add the two numbers (or terms) together.

Also, the instruction, "sum up the following," is a command to find the sum of all the numbers that follow.

Function help please
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The first table represents a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

For it to be a function, there needs to be 1 unique y value of 1 unique x value.

  • Looking at 2nd table, we see x value of -5 is mapped to 2 different y values of -5 and 5. So this is not a function.
  • Looking at 3rd table, we see x value of -2 is mapped to 2 different y values of 2 and 4. So this is not a function.
  • Looking at 4th table, we see x value of -4 is mapped to 2 different y values of 2 and 0. So this is not a function as well.

Looking at table 1, there are no duplicate x values and each of the 4 x values map to different values. So the first table represents a function.
