Linear means that the variable only is to the first power. Non-linear means that the variable has a power of more than one.

For example, a linear variable could look like x^{1} or x and a non-linear variable could look like x^{2} or x^{3}

Answer:

<em>The word 'linear' means something having to do with a line.On a Cartesian Plane, a linear function is a function where the graph is a straight line. The line can go in any direction, but it's always a straight line. A non-linear function has a shape that is not a straight line.</em>

Using the normal distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a. 0.4602 = 46.02%.

b. 0.281 = 28.1%.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma is given by:

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

  • The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
  • Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
  • By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

The parameters are given as follows:

\mu = 959, \sigma = 263, n = 37, s = \frac{263}{\sqrt{37}} = 43.24

Item a:

The probability is <u>one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 984</u>, hence:

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

Z = \frac{984 - 959}{263}

Z = 0.1

Z = 0.1 has a p-value of 0.5398.

1 - 0.5398 = 0.4602.

Item b:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem:

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

Z = \frac{984 - 959}{43.24}

Z = 0.58

Z = 0.58 has a p-value of 0.7190.

1 - 0.719 = 0.281.

A) get rid of the fraction by finding the common denominator, 4. multiplying by 4 on both sides, I usually have it turned into a fraction, 4/1. The 2x=3/4, is now 8x=12/4 will be set as 8x=3. Divide 8, x=3/8.
B) The common denominator is 15. Multiply on both sides, -2/5 times 15/1 is -30/5 which becomes -6. And m/3 times 15/1 is 15m/3, 5m. divide the 5 and your answer is m=-5/6
