Answer:

93.32% probability that a randomly selected score will be greater than 63.7.

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 = 80.2, \sigma = 11

What is the probability that a randomly selected score will be greater than 63.7.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 63.7. So

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

Z = \frac{63.7 - 80.2}{11}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

93.32% probability that a randomly selected score will be greater than 63.7.

A rectangle has a length that is 5 meters greater than the width. If w represents the width, write an expression, in terms of w,
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Area of rectangle is w^2+5w

Perimeter of Rectangle is 4w+20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let the width of the rectangle be 'w'.

Also Given:

A rectangle has a length that is 5 meters greater than the width.

Length of rectangle = w+5\ meters

We need to write expression for Area of rectangle and Perimeter of rectangle.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Perimeter of rectangle is equal to twice the sum of the length and width.

framing in equation form we get;

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(w+5+w)=2(2w+5) =4w+20

Also We know that;

Area of rectangle is length times width.

framing in equation form we get;

Area of rectangle= w(w+5) = w^2+5w

Hence Area of rectangle is w^2+5w and Perimeter of Rectangle is 4w+20.
