Let X be the score on an english test which is normally distributed with mean of 31.5 and standard deviation of 7.3
μ = 31.5 and σ =7.3
Here we have to find score that separates the top 59% from the bottom 41%
So basically we have to find here x value such that area above it is 59% and below it is 49%
This is same as finding z score such that probability below z score is 0.49 and above probability is 0.59
P(Z < z) = 0.49
Using excel function to find the z score for probability 0.49 we get
z = NORM.S.INV(0.49)
z = -0.025
It means for z score -0.025 area below it is 41% and above it is 59%
Now we will convert this z score into x value using given mean and standard deviation
x = (z* standard deviation) + mean
x = (-0.025 * 7.3) + 31.5
x = 31.6825 ~ 31.68
The score that separates the top 59% from the bottom 41% is 31.68
The answer is B because the x doesn’t repeat in that one.
Answer:
x = 4, TU = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that TS bisects TU at Q , then
TQ = QU , substitute values
5x - 9 = 15 - x ( add x to both sides )
6x - 9 = 15 ( add 9 to both sides )
6x = 24 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x = 4
Thus
TU = 5x - 9 + 15 - x = 4x + 6 = 4(4) + 6 = 16 + 6 = 22
