<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Given : A standardized exam's scores are normally distributed. In a recent year, the mean test score was 1530 and the standard deviation was 316.

i.e.  \mu=1530 and \sigma=316 .

Usual values have a z-score between -1.96 and 1.96.

The test scores of four students selected at random are 1930, 1250, 2250, and 1420.

Formula for z : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x= 1930 ,  z=\dfrac{1930-1530}{316}\approx1.27

The z-score for 1930 is 1.27.

For x= 1250 ,  z=\dfrac{1250-1530}{316}\approx-0.89

The z-score for 1250 is -0.89.

For x=2250 ,  z=\dfrac{2250-1530}{316}\approx2.28

The z-score for 1250 is 2.28 .

For x= 1420 ,  z=\dfrac{1420-1530}{316}\approx-0.35

The z-score for 1250 is -0.35 .

Since all the z-values lie between -1.96 and 1.96 except 2.28 corresponding to x=2250.

Thus , the z-score corresponding to x=2250 is unusual.

What is 5/2 divided by 2/5
Len [333]

Answer: 6 and 1/4

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, we first leave 5/2 alone so don't do anything to it.

For our second fraction, we want to switch the numerator and the

denominator which means find the reciprocal of it.

The reciprocal of 2/5 is just the opposite of it when

you flip it and it's going to be 5/2.

Because we did the opposite there, we need to do the opposite

of division and the opposite of division is multiplication.

So now we have 5/2 × 5/2 which is 25/4 or 6 and 1/4.

Suppose you have some wolves and some dogs. Dogs are named and wolves are not. If you call a dog it will run to you. A wolf woul
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

4dogs and no wolves

Step-by-step explanation:

when a dog is taken care of (Trained) it could be let to run free in a definite region.

On a plane with one line we can place two dogs (one dog in each of the regions) and they will not fight as they will be separated by a line, and they will run free.

If we place three lines in general, then we would have four regions where 4 dogs can run free as they are separated by a line so as not to fight.

But for Wolves from the question it is deduced that:  A wolf has to be caged all the time and no matter how well you train a wolve, it wont yield to instructions.

With these two, wolves wont be allowed on the plane at all.
