Note that a percentile tells us how many percents of numbers that are above the number at the percentile. So the 70th percentile tells us that 70% of the students are taller than Jake. That means 30% of the students are either at the same height or shorter than Jake.

30% of 1100 would be 0.3*1100 = 330.

So there are 330 students that are either at the same height or shorter than Jake.

Suppose a plane has 500 seats. From experience, it's known that 10% of people who have bought the ticket do not show up. Now, 55
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The probability that there will be enough seats for all people who turn up is 0.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A = 500

B = 550

Since it is known from experience that 10% of people who bought tickets don't show up, to find the probability that there will be enough seats for those who show up, we have:

Percentage that will turn up = 100℅ - 10℅ = 90℅

Since 90℅ will turn up, that means the number of passengers will be less than 500.

Therefore for P less than or equal to 500, we use:

P ( X <_ 500) =

= [500 + 0.5 - (550 * 0.9)] / sqrt*(550 * 0. 9 * 0.1)

= 0.78

Therefore, the probability that there will be enough seats for all people who turn up is 0.78

The end point P of a line segment PQ(-3,6) and its mid point is (5,8) Find the coordinates of the end point Q
Georgia [21]

Answer:

  • (13, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Q have coordinates x and y

<u>Using midpoint formula we find the values of x and y</u>

  • (- 3 + x)/2 = 5 ⇒ -3 + x = 10 ⇒ x = 10 + 3 ⇒ x = 13
  • (6 + y)/2 = 8 ⇒ 6 + y = 16 ⇒ y = 16 - 6 ⇒ y = 10
  • Q = (13, 10)
