Answer:

Grade B score:

76 \leq x \leq 89    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73.3

Standard Deviation, σ = 9.7

We are given that the distribution of score on test is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

B: Scores below the top 5% and above the bottom 62%

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62  

= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62  

=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.38  

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 0.305\\\\x = 76.26  

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

P(X < 0.95) = \\\\P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.95

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 1.645\\\\x = 89.26  

Thus, the numerical value of score to achieve grade B is

76 \leq x \leq 89

When using the rational root theorem, which of the following is a possible root of the polynomial function below f(x)=x^3-5x^2-1
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

\Large \boxed{\sf \ \ 7 \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

The polynomial function is

x^3-5x^2-12x+14

The rational root theorem states that each rational solution

   x=\dfrac{p}{q}    

, written in irreducible fraction, satisfies the two following:

   p is a factor of the constant term

   q is a factor of the leading coefficient

In this example, the constant term is 14 and the leading coefficient is 1. It means that p is a factor of 14 and q a factor of 1.

Let's proceed with the prime factorisation of 14:

14 = 2 * 7

Finally, the possible rational roots of this expression are :

   1

   2

   7

   14

and we need to test for negative ones too

   -1

   -2

   -7

   -14

From your list, the correct answer is 7.

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you

Tom buys a shirt for 22.00 plus 7% sales tax. His cousin buys a shirt for 18.00 plus 4% sales tax. How much do Tom and his cousi
Luda [366]

Answer:

$42.26

Tom spent more on tax ($1.54 vs his cousin's $0.72)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tom: $22 x 1.07 = $23.54

tax spent = 22 x 0.07 = $1.54


Cousin: $18 x 1.04 = $18.72

tax spent = 18 x 0.04 = $0.72


Total= $23.54 + $18.72 = $42.26
