20 mysteries. Add 20% and 30% to get 50%. Then rewrite 50% as 50/100. Next multiply 50/100 by 40 to get 2,000/100.The last thing to do is simplify to get 20 and subtract 20 from 40 to get 20 mysteries.

A professor at a local university noted that the exam grades of her students were normally distributed with a mean of 73 and a s
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The minimum score of those who received C's is 67.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 73, \sigma = 11

If 69.5 percent of the students received grades of C or better, what is the minimum score of those who received C's?

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.695 = 0.305. So it is X when Z = -0.51.

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

-0.51 = \frac{X - 73}{11}

X - 73 = -0.51*11

X = 67.39

The minimum score of those who received C's is 67.39.
