Answer:
0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this problem, we have that:
Find the probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 64.
By the Central Limit Theorem
has a pvalue of 0.9772
1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228
0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.
Answer:
- ABCD is a rhombus, and a parallelogram
==================================
<h3>Given </h3>- Points A(-6, - 1), B(4, - 6), C(2, 5), D(- 8, 10)
First, plot the points (see attached picture).
Then, connect all the points.
<h3>We see that:</h3>- Opposite sides are parallel,
- Diagonals are perpendicular.
From our observation the figure is rhombus.
Let's confirm it with the following.
1) Find midpoints of diagonals and compare.
- AC → x = (- 6 + 2)/2 = - 2, y = (- 1 + 5)/2 = 2
- BD → x = (4 - 8)/2 = - 2, y = (- 6 + 10)/2 = 2
The midpoint of both diagonals is same (- 2, 2).
2) Find slopes of diagonals and check if their product is -1, this will confirm they are perpendicular.
- m(AC) = (5 - (-1))/(2 - (-6)) = 6/8 = 3/4
- m(BD) = (10 - (-6))/(-8 - 4) = - 16/12 = - 4/3
- m(AC) × m(BD) = 3/4 * (- 4/3) = - 1
<u>Confirmed.</u>
So this is a rhombus and also a parallelogram but <u>not</u> rectangle or square, since opposite angles are not right angles.
