First, we get the z-score using formula:
z =( X - μ ) / σ

From the problem, we substitute the given values:
z = (9 - 7.8) / 1.7
z = 0.71

From the z-table (one-tailed), for a z-score of 0.7059, the proportion of numbers that are greater than 9 is  0.76.

School A has 480 students and 16 classrooms. School B has 192 students and 12 classrooms.
boyakko [2]

Answer:96

Step-by-step explanation:

A; 480/16 = 30 students per classroom

B: 192/12 =16 students per classroom

we need x such that \frac{480-x}{16} = \frac{192+x}{12}

which means

(480-x )* 12 should be equal to (192+x) * 16

5,760 - 12x = 3,072+16x

5,760 - 3,072 = 12x + 16x

2,688 = 28x

x = 96

The principal of a middle school claims that test scores of the seventh-graders at his school vary less than the test scores of
AveGali [126]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation is less than 14.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that that the null hypothesis is

       H_o  :  \sigma < 14.7

Now given from the question that this null hypothesis was rejected, it mean, in non technical term that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation is less than 14.7.

Simplify <br> -4x+2x2-x2+5-3x
Serga [27]

Answer:

9 - 7x - x²

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x+2x2-x²+5-3x = -4x-3x+2x2+5-x²

I arranged the like terms together so it is easier to do the calculations.

-4x-3x+2x2+5-x² = -7x+4+5-x²

Simplify.

-7x+4+5-x² = 9-7x-x²
