Answer:

The constant of proportionality in the equation is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The equation $y=7x$

To find : What is the constant of proportionality in the equation ?

Solution :

The general form of constant of proportionality is

$y\propto x$

$y=kx$

where, k is the constant of proportionality.

On comparison with general form,

$y=7x$

here, k=7

Therefore, the constant of proportionality in the equation is 7.

What is the P(T,H,T,H) on 4 flips of a coin?<br><br> i need help

Katen [24]

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Each coin flip is an independent event so the probabilities are independent

P(T,H,T,H) = P(T) P(H) P(T) P(H)

= 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2

= 1/16

Answer:

$M = \log(10000)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$M = \log(\frac{I}{I_o})$

$I = 10000I_o$ ---- intensity is 10000 times reference earthquake

Required

The resulting equation

We have:

$M = \log(\frac{I}{I_o})$

Substitute the right values

$M = \log(\frac{10000I_o}{I_o})$

$M = \log(10000)$

The College Boards, which are administered each year to many thousands of high school students, are scored so as to yield a mean

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

a) 15.87% of the scores are expected to be greater than 600.

b) 2.28% of the scores are expected to be greater than 700.

c) 30.85% of the scores are expected to be less than 450.

d) 53.28% of the scores are expected to be between 450 and 600.

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:

$\mu = 500, \sigma = 100$

a. Greater than 600

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 600. So

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

$Z = \frac{600 - 500}{100}$

$Z = 1$

$Z = 1$ has a pvalue of 0.8413.

1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

15.87% of the scores are expected to be greater than 600.

b. Greater than 700

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 700. So

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

$Z = \frac{700 - 500}{100}$

$Z = 2$

$Z = 2$ has a pvalue of 0.9772

1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228

2.28% of the scores are expected to be greater than 700.

c. Less than 450

Pvalue of Z when X = 450. So

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

$Z = \frac{450 - 500}{100}$

$Z = -0.5$

$Z = -0.5$ has a pvalue of 0.3085.

30.85% of the scores are expected to be less than 450.

d. Between 450 and 600

pvalue of Z when X = 600 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 450. So

X = 600

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

$Z = \frac{600 - 500}{100}$

$Z = 1$

$Z = 1$ has a pvalue of 0.8413.

X = 450

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

$Z = \frac{450 - 500}{100}$

$Z = -0.5$

$Z = -0.5$ has a pvalue of 0.3085.

0.8413 - 0.3085 = 0.5328

53.28% of the scores are expected to be between 450 and 600.
