Why isn’t the maximum ACT score (36) at the 100th percentile?

Answer and Explanations

ACT score percentile help colleges compare students with one another, rather than just looking at everyone’s score. The  score range is between 1 and 36, the highest score that one can receive on the ACT is 36. Moreover, 36 is the perfect score.

The maximum ACT score (36) is that in 2018, only 3,741 students (out of millions of test-takers) scored a perfect 36 on the ACT.  The 99th percentile of test-takers includes those who earn 35 or 34 on the ACT. We can miss up to five questions on the ACT and still earn a 36. That is a reason why the maximum ACT score is 36 at the 100th percentile.

The ACT score report will provide more information about test-taking experience in the form of sub score. The higher the score,  you will get into the colleges of your choice.

Match each graph with the correct equation written in<br> standard form. Explain your reasoning.
My name is Ann [436]

The graphs and their equations are:

  • Line 1: 6x - 2y = -10
  • Line 2: 9x - 9y = -45
  • Line 3: 3x - 12y = -60

<h3>How to determine the equations of the graphs</h3>

The three lines are linear equations, because they are all straight lines.

Also, the lines have the same y-intercept (this is so, because they cross the y-axis at the same point), but they have the same slope

Next, we rewrite the equations in slope-intercept form.

So, we have:

3x - 12y = -60

Divide through by -12

-0.25x +y = 5

Make y the subject

y = 0.25x + 5

6x - 2y = -10

Divide through by 2

3x - y = -5

Make y the subject

y = 3x + 5

9x - 9y = -45

Divide through by -9

-x + y = 5

Make y the subject

y = x + 5

Line 1 has the highest slope, while line 3 has the least slope.

So, we have the following equations:

  • Line 1: 6x - 2y = -10
  • Line 2: 9x - 9y = -45
  • Line 3: 3x - 12y = -60

Differentiating a Logarithmic Function in Exercise, find the derivative of the function. See Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x(1-2lnx)}{x^{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the question we refresh our knowledge of the quotient rule.

For a function f(x) express as a ratio of another functions u(x) and v(x) i.e

f(x)=\frac{u(x)}{v(x)}\\, the derivative is express as

\frac{df(x)}{dx}=\frac{v(x)\frac{du(x)}{dx}-u(x)\frac{dv(x)}{dx}}{v(x)^{2} }

from y=lnx/x^{2}

we assign u(x)=lnx and v(x)=x^2

and the derivatives

\frac{du(x)}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}\\\frac{dv(x)}{dx}=2x\\.

Note the expression used in determining the derivative of the logarithm function.it was obtain from the general expression of logarithm derivative i.e y=lnx\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{x}

If we substitute values into the quotient expression we arrive at

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{(x^{2}*\frac{1}{x})-(2x*lnx)}{x^{4}}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x-2xlnx}{x^{4}}\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x(1-2lnx)}{x^{4}}

In 1 and 2, use the table below that shows information about squares.
frutty [35]

1. The table has a constant of proportionality of 4, therefore, the perimeter and side length of squares are proportional.

2. Equation for the proportion is, y = 4x.

Perimeter = 48 cm.

<h3>What is the Equation of a Proportional Relationship?</h3>

The equation that defines a proportional relationship is, y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality between variables x and y.

1. For the table given:

y = perimeter

x = side length

k = constant of proportionality = 8/2 = 16/4 = 24/6 = 4.

Since k is the same all through, the equation can be modelled as y = 4x, which means the perimeter and side length of squares are proportional.

2. Using the equation, y = 4x,the perimeter (y) of a square when its side length is 12 (x) is:

y = 4(12)

y = 48 cm.

The perimeter (y) of the square is: 48 cm.

Is1/10 and 3/33 epuivalant
sveta [45]
3/33 can be reduced to 1/11 by dividing by 3 on the top and bottom.
1/11 is not equal to 1/10. Although they have the same numerator or number on top, 1, they don't have the same number in the bottom. 
So they are not equivalent.
Hope this helps.
