A humanities professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 12% of scores B: Scores below t
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The minimum score required for an A grade is 88.

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 = 77.8, \sigma = 8.5

Find the minimum score required for an A grade.

Top 12%, which is at least the 100-12 = 88th percentile, which is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.88. So it is X when Z = 1.175.

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

1.175 = \frac{X - 77.8}{8.5}

X - 77.8 = 1.175*8.5

X = 87.8

Rounding to the nearest whole number

The minimum score required for an A grade is 88.

Fertilizer is sold in 100 pound bags labelled with the amount of nitrogen (N), phosphoric acid ( P205), and potash (K20) present
IgorC [24]

Answer:

200 pounds of Vigoro

300 pounds of Parker

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to solve this problem by a system of equations.

I am going to say that x_{1} is the number of 100 pound bags of Vigoro and x_{2} is the number of 100 pound bags of Parker.

With the problem's statements, we can build the system:

We need to find a mixture containing 112 pounds of nitrogen. A 100 pound bag of Vigoro contains 29 pounds of nitrogen, and a 100 pound bag of Parker has 18 pounds of Nitrogen. So:

29x_{1} + 18x_{2} = 112

We need to find a mixture containing 81 pounds of phosporic acid. A 100 pound bag of Vigoro contains 3 pounds of phosporic acid, and a 100 pound bag of Parker has 25 pounds of phosporic acid. So:

3x_{1} + 25x_{2} = 81

We need to find a mixture containing 26 pounds of potash. A 100 pound bag of Vigoro contains 4 pounds of potash, and a 100 pound bag of Parker has 6 pounds of potash. So:

4x_{1} + 6x_{2} = 26

Solving the system

We have the following system

1)29x_{1} + 18x_{2} = 112

2)3x_{1} + 25x_{2} = 81

3)4x_{1} + 6x_{2} = 26

I am going to solve this system by substitution. I am going to write x_{2} as a function of x_{1} in equation 3) and replace it in equation 1).

So

4x_{1} + 6x_{2} = 26

6x_{2} = 26 - 4x_{1}

x_{2} = \frac{26 - 4x_{1}}{6}

-----------

29x_{1} + 18x_{2} = 112

29x_{1} + 18\frac{26 - 4x_{1}}{6} = 112

29x_{1} + 3(26 - 4x_{1}) = 112

29x_{1} + 78 - 12x_{1} = 112

17x_{1} = 34

x_{1} = 2

We are going to need 2 100 pound bags of Vigoro = 200 pounds of Vigoro

x_{2} = \frac{26 - 4x_{1}}{6} = \frac{26 - 8}{6} = 3

We are going to need 3 100 pound bags of Parker = 300 pounds of Parker

We now replace the values in the equation 2) to verify that the system is consistent.

3x_{1} + 25x_{2} = 81

3(2) + 25(3) = 81

6 + 75 = 81

81 = 81

The system is consistent, so the answer that we found is correct.
