Answer:

x = 7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)=-5

Distribute

3x - 12 = -5

Add 12 to each side

3x -12+12 = -5+12

3x = 7

Divide by 3

3x/3 = 7/3

x = 7/3

An art history professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme.A: Top 5% of scoresB: Scores below th

adoni [48]

Answer:

Grade B score:

$76 \leq x \leq 89$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 73.3

Standard Deviation, σ = 9.7

We are given that the distribution of score on test is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

B: Scores below the top 5% and above the bottom 62%

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.62

$P( X > x) = P( z > \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$= 1 -P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.62$

$=P( z \leq \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.38$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 0.305\\\\x = 76.26$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.05

$P(X < 0.95) = \\\\P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7})=0.95$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 73.3}{9.7} = 1.645\\\\x = 89.26$

Thus, the numerical value of score to achieve grade B is

$76 \leq x \leq 89$
