Answer: x = 19.42, y = 18.47, z = 18°

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

This is assumed to be a 90° triangle so you can use Soh Cah Toa to answer the questions. <em>You must use a calculator for the last step.</em>

cos\theta=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\implies cos72^o=\dfrac{6}{x}\implies x=\dfrac{6}{cos72^o}\implies x=19.42\\\\\\tan\theta=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\implies tan72^o=\dfrac{y}{6}\implies y=6\ tan72^o}\implies y=18.47\\\\

Use Triangle Sum Theorem to find the angle measure of z:

90° + 72° + z = 180°

   162°     + z = 180°

                  z = 18°

The mean of Tom’s scores on 5 tests was 77.4%. The scores on his first four tests were 88, 77, 70, and 72. What was Tom’s score
kogti [31]

Answer:

88%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we multiply the mean by 5.

77.4 x 5 = 387

Then we add all of the test scores.

88 + 77 + 70 + 72 = 299

We subtract the total of the scores from 387, which we got from mulitplying the mean by 5.

387 - 299 = 88

Therefore, Tom's score on his fifth test was an 88%.

Hope this helps!

$\mbox{The mean of a set of test scores is 86 and the standard deviation is 3. }$
ziro4ka [17]
For a normally distributed data set, approximately 68.27% of the data is within one standard deviation. i.e. approximately 0.6827 x 200 = 137 test scores is between 86 + or - 3 i.e. from 83 to 89. Hence approximately 137/2 = 68 test score is within the 86 to 89 range.
