Answer: u=x^6

Explanation:

A quadratic equation is an equation written in the form

au^2 + bu + c=0 (1)

where a,b,c are coefficients and where u is the variable.

Our original equation is:

4x^{12} - 5x^6 -14=0

If we make the substitution u=x^6, we obtain

4u^2 -5u-14 =0

Which corresponds to eq.(1), with coefficients a=4, b=-5, c=-14.

Scilla [17]

Observe the given data distribution table carefully.

The 5th class interval is given as,

14.0-17.4

The upper limit (UL) and lower limit (LL) of this interval are,

\begin{gathered} UL=17.4 \\ LL=14.0 \end{gathered}

Thus, the upper-class limit of this 5th class is 17.4.

A college requires applicants to have an ACT score in the top 12% of all test scores. The ACT scores are normally distributed, w
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) The lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement is 27.0225.

b) 156 would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement

c) The lowest score that would meet the colleges requirement would be decreased to 26.388.

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 = 21.5, \sigma = 4.7

a. Find the lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement.

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.12 = 0.88. So it is X when Z = 1.175.

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

1.175 = \frac{X - 21.5}{4.7}

X - 21.5 = 1.175*4.7

X = 27.0225

The lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement is 27.0225.

b. If 1300 students are randomly selected, how many would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement?

Top 12%, so 12% of them.

0.12*1300 = 156

156 would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement

c. How does the answer to part (a) change if the college decided to accept the top 15% of all test scores?

It would decrease to the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.15 = 0.85. So X when Z = 1.04.

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

1.04 = \frac{X - 21.5}{4.7}

X - 21.5 = 1.04*4.7

X = 26.388

The lowest score that would meet the colleges requirement would be decreased to 26.388.
