Since we cannot be 100% sure which test Frank did better on, we need to find a way to make the comparison doable. This can be done by converting Frank's score to the standard score (or also known as the z-score).

The z-score is calculated through the following formula:
Z= \frac{X-mean}{deviation} where X is Frank's original score.

Converting Frank's scores to a standard score accounting for both the mean and standard deviation of the population who took the test will make the comparison possible.

We get the following z-scores after conversion:
Z_{Bio}= \frac{55-60}{10} =-0.5
Z_{Chem}= \frac{70-80}{15} =-0.67

If you read up more on the concept of z-score, you may know that this score just means the amount of standard deviations a data falls with respect to the mean. Comparing Frank's two scores, we can see that they are both below the mean. However, it can be seen that Frank's z-score for his chemistry test is lower than his z-score for his biology test.

This suggests that Frank scored relatively poorer in chemistry than he did in biology.

ANSWER: Frank did better in his biology test.

Solution,

Radius(R)= 7 cm

Area of quarter circle:

\frac{\pi \:  {r}^{2} }{4}

=  \frac{3.142 \times 49}{4}

= 38.4895 \:  {cm}^{2}

Hope this helps...

I got 13.7 is that correct
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 10.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

First triangle

height = x

base = 7 in

Second triangle

height = 12 in

base = 8 in

Process

1.- Use proportions to solve this problem, relates the sides of a triangle with the same sides of the other triangle.

                                   \frac{x}{7} = \frac{12}{8}

2.- Multiply both sides by 7

                                7\frac{x}{7} = \frac{7(12)}{8}

3.- Simplify

                                 x = \frac{84}{8}

4.- Result

                                x = 10.5 in
