Answer:

82.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean score (μ) = 80

Standard deviation (σ) = 5

The 70th percentile of a normal distribution has an equivalent z-score of roughly 0.525.

For any given score, X, the z-score can be determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

For z = 0.525:

0.525=\frac{X-80}{5}\\ X=82.62

A raw score of approximately 82.62 corresponds to the 70th percentile.

Answer: the raw score that corresponds to the 70th percentile is 82.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population of scores in the aptitude test is normally distributed., we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = aptitude test scores.

µ = mean score

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 80

σ = 5

We want to find the raw score that corresponds to the 70th percentile.

70th percentile = 70/100 = 0.7

Looking at the normal distribution table, the z score corresponding to 0.7 is 0.525.

Therefore,

0.525 = (x - 80)/5

5 × 0.525 = x - 80

2.625 = x - 80

x = 2.625 + 80

x = 82.625

katrin2010 [14]
As you know, to get the inverse of any expression, we start off by switching the variables about and then solving for "y",

\bf \stackrel{f(x)}{y}=\cfrac{1}{2}x+4\qquad \qquad \stackrel{inverse}{\underline{x}=\cfrac{1}{2}\underline{y}+4}\implies x-4=\cfrac{1}{2}y
\\\\\\
2x-8=\stackrel{f^{-1}(x)}{y}
\\\\\\
f^{-1}(4)=2(4)-8\implies f^{-1}(4)=0

Please help me in questions 15 and 21 with their inequalities and graph
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

x >= 7 OR x < -8

n <= -3 AND n > -6

Step-by-step explanation:

15) 7x - 6 >= 43 OR 10x + 4 < -76

7x >= 43 + 6 OR 10x < -76 - 4

7x >= 49 OR 10x < -80

x >= 7 OR x < -8

you can draw based on this

for >= it is full dot for < it is like circle on the graph

you have to draw both x>= 7 , x < -8 on the same line because it is OR

so both ranges of x are possible

21) 3 + 2n <= -3 AND 1 - 3n < 19

2n <= -3 -3 AND -3n < 19 - 1

2n <= -6 AND -3n < 18

n <= -3 AND 3n > -18

n <= -3 AND n > -6

so it lies between -6 and -3
