Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of time taken on the SAT for a group of students is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = length of time

u = mean time

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 2.5 hours

s = 0.25 hours

We want to find the probability that the sample mean is between two hours and three hours.. It is expressed as

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

For x = 2,

z = (2 - 2.5)/0.25 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.02275

For x = 3,

z = (3 - 2.5)/0.25 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.97725

P(2 lesser than or equal to x lesser than or equal to 3)

= 0.97725 - 0.02275 = 0.9545

Answer these please tell me <br> 1. What the error was<br> 2. How can U check ur answer
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The first one: the error was that the 3 shouldn’t have been moved but the 5 should have. The correct answer is k=-8

The second one: the error was that they added the 6 and 4, you would only get -10 if the 4 was - the correct answer is -2

You can check your answer by plugging in your answer to the variable and making sure both side equal each other

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one: the 5 should be - from both side so you get k=-8

The second one: the 4 should be + to both sides. And the -6 and +4 should be added together to get n=-2

Remember you always want to get the variables by themselves.

Sorry that was a lot. Hope it helps!
