Answer:

She subtracted 3.4 on the left and added 3.40 on the right

Step-by-step explanation:

3.40 + 0.85 x = 5.27

Subtract 3.40 from each side  

3.40 -3.40+ 0.85 x = 5.27-3.40

.85x = 5.27 - 3.40

.85x =1.87

Divide by .85

.85x/.85 =1.87/.85

x = 2.2

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 3.5 . Suppose 49 golfers p
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62 is 0.3897

Step-by-step explanation:

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 61 and a standard deviation of 3.5

\mu = 61

\sigma = 3.5

We are supposed to find he probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62.

Formula : Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Z=\frac{62-61}{3.5}

Z=0.285

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.6103

P(x>62)=1-P(x<62)=1-0.6103=0.3897

Hence the probability that the average score of the 49 golfers exceeded 62 is 0.3897
