Among freshman at a certain university, scores on the Math SAT followed the normal curve, with an average of 550 and an SD of 10

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

a) 6.68th percentile

b) 617.5 points

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:

$\mu = 550, \sigma = 100$

a) A student who scored 400 on the Math SAT was at the ______ th percentile of the score distribution.

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

$Z = \frac{400 - 550}{100}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

So this student is in the 6.68th percentile.

b) To be at the 75th percentile of the distribution, a student needed a score of about ______ points on the Math SAT.

He needs a score of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675.

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

$0.675 = \frac{X - 550}{100}$

$X - 550 = 0.675*100$

$X = 617.5$

Marina earns $15 for 1 hour of babysitting $23 for 2 hours of babysitting and $31 for 3 hours of babysitting. Write a function t

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the amount that Marina earns for babysitting.

Let x represent the number of hours of babysitting.

If we plot the graph of y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis of a graph,

the slope which is expressed as

Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis

change in the value of y = y2 - y1

Change in value of x = x2 -x1

Slope = (23 - 15)/(2 - 1) = 8

We would model the function in the slope intercept form which is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where c represents the intercept.

To determine c, we would substitute y = 15, x = 1 and m = 8 into y =mx + c. It becomes

15 = 8 × 1 + c

15 = 8 + c

c = 15 - 8 = 7

The function that describes the sequence would be

y = 8x + 7
