Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected student’s math score is between 300 and 700 is 0.9544.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that, The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a standard deviation of 100.

To find : What is the probability that a randomly selected student’s math score is between 300 and 700?

Solution :

The mean is \mu=500

The standard deviation is  \sigma=1000

Formula to find z-score is

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Now, we have to find the probability score is between 300 and 700              

For x = 300 substitute in the formula,

z = \frac{300-500}{100}\\\\z =-2

For x = 700 substitute in the formula,

z = \frac{700-500}{100}\\\\z =2

Now, The probability between P(-2<z<2)  is written as

P(-2

Using the z table substitute the values of z

At z<-2 is 0.228 and at z<2 is 0.9772.

P(-2

P(-2

Therefore, The probability that a randomly selected student’s math score is between 300 and 700 is 0.9544.

The manufacturer of hardness testing equipment uses​ steel-ball indenters to penetrate metal that is being tested.​ However, the
kumpel [21]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes steel ball and Y denotes diamond

\bar{x_1} = 1/9( 50+57+......+51+53)

=530/9

=58.89

\bar{x_2}= 1/9( 52+ 56+....+ 51+ 56)

=543/9

=60.33

difference = d =(60.33- 58.89)

=1.44

s^2=1/n\sum xi^2 - n/(n-1)\bar{x}^2

s12 = 1/9( 502+572+......+512+532) -9/8 (58.89)2

=31686/8 - 9/8( 3468.03)

=3960.75 - 3901.53

=59.22

s1 = 7.69

s22 = 1/9( 522+ 562+....+ 512+ 562) -9/8 (60.33)2

=33295/8 - 9/8 (3640.11)

=4161.875 - 4095.12

=66.75

s2 =8.17

sample standard deviation for difference is

s=\sqrt{[(n1-1)s_1^2+ (n2-1)s_2^2]/(n1+n2-2)}

 = \sqrt{[(9-1)*59.22+ (9-1)*66.75]/(9+9-2)}

= \sqrt{1007.76/16}

=7.93

sd = s*\sqrt{(1/n1)+(1/n2)}

=7.93*\sqrt{(1/9)+(1/9)}

=7.93* 0.47

=3.74

For 95% confidence level Z (\alpha /2) =1.96

confidence interval is

d\pm Z(\alpha /2)*s_d

=(1.44 - 1.96* 3.75 , 1.44+1.96* 3.75)

=(1.44 - 7.35 , 1.44 + 7.35)

=(-2.31, 8.79)

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the two indenters produce different hardness readings.

100 PTS!!!!<br><br> A square office has sides that are 8 feet long. What is the office's area?
nalin [4]

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has equal side measurements meaning that each side is 8. To find the area, multiply the length by the width which would be 8 * 8 = 64.

Student to faculty ratio is 17:3 total for bo th h is 740. How many students and how many faculty
svetlana [45]

We can represent 17:3 with 17x and 3x

17x + 3x = 740

20x = 740

x = 37

17(37):3(37)

629 students and 111 school faculty members.
