The gradient is the direction of steepest ascent. 5 is the coefficient of x, <span>y=mx+c,</span> so 5 is the gradient to this algebraic equation.<span />

The SAT Reasoning Test (formerly called the Scholastic Aptitude Test) is perhaps the most widely used standardized test for coll
mihalych1998 [28]

Given Information:  

Mean SAT score = μ = 1500

Standard deviation of SAT score = σ = 3 00

Required Information:  

Minimum score in the top 10% of this test that qualifies for the scholarship = ?

Answer:

\bar{x} = 1884\\

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Normal Distribution?

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.  

We want to find out the minimum score that qualifies for the scholarship by scoring in the top 10% of this test.

P(X > \bar{x} )= P(Z > \bar{x}) = 0.10\\P(X < \bar{x} )= P(Z < \bar{x}) = 1 - 0.10\\P(X < \bar{x} )= P(Z < \bar{x}) = 0.90\\

The z-score corresponding to the probability of 0.90 is 1.28 (from the z-table)

\bar{x} = \mu + z(\sigma) \\\bar{x} = 1500 + 1.28(300)\\\bar{x} = 1500 + 384\\\bar{x} = 1884\\

Therefore, you need to score 1884 in order to  qualify for the scholarship.

How to use z-table?

Step 1:

In the z-table, find the probability value of 0.90 and note down the value of the that row which is 1.2

Step 2:

Then look up at the top of z-table and note down the value of the that column which is 0.08

Step 3:

Finally, note down the intersection of step 1 and step 2 which is 1.28

The function f(x) = x2. The graph of g(x) is f(x) translated to the left 6 units and down 5 units. What is the function rule for
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

g(x) = (x + 6)^2 - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To translate f(x) to the left by 6 units, replace x with x+6.

To translate f(x) down 5 units, replace f(x) with f(x)-5.

Together, these replacements give you ...

... g(x) = f(x+6) -5

... g(x) = (x +6)^2 -5

2. If the diameter of a circle is 2V10, what is the area<br> of the circle.
Sidana [21]
Area is 10pi I think Bc radius is radical 10 Bc 2 radical 10/2 is radical 10. Then we do pi times radical 10 to the second power. Radical 10 to the second power is 10 Bc we remove radical when it is to the second power. Therefore, it becomes 10 times pi or 10pi
