Assume that SAT scores are normally distributed with mean mu equals 1518 and standard deviation sigma equals 325. If 1 SAT score

is randomly selected, find the probability that it is greater than 1600. If 81 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean greater than 1600.

Answer:

P(X>1600)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{1600-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{1600-1518}{325})=P(z>0.252)

And we can find this probability using the z score formula and the complement rule and we got:

P(z>0.252)=1-P(z

z =\frac{1600-1518}{\frac{325}{\sqrt{81}}}= 2.27

And we can find this probability using the z score formula and the complement rule and we got:

P(z>2.27)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the SAT scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(1518,325)  

Where \mu=1518 and \sigma=325

We want to find this probability:

P(X>1600)

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Using this formula we got:

P(X>1600)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{1600-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{1600-1518}{325})=P(z>0.252)

And we can find this probability using the z score formula and the complement rule and we got:

P(z>0.252)=1-P(z

For the other part we need to take in count that the distribution for the sampel mean if the sample size is large (n>30) is given by:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

And we can use the z score formula given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

And replacing we got:

z =\frac{1600-1518}{\frac{325}{\sqrt{81}}}= 2.27

And we can find this probability using the z score formula and the complement rule and we got:

P(z>2.27)=1-P(z

5) Which expression is equivalent to 4(3 + 2)?
kirill [66]
D, because if you distribute 4(3+2) it equals= 4x3
= 12
4x2
=8
and there’s an addition sign so you will add the remaining numbers 12+8

What is the simplest way to explain scale drawings for middle school math?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

The simplest way to teach middle school math scale drawings is to use real pictures to relate to each other to explain the concept. For example, scaling a red ball of 1" to a ball of 2" and so on. This will show how the ball increases by size by adding 1" each time.

aksik [14]
To answer this all we need to do is DIVIDE.

98515 ÷ 85 = <span>1159

CHECK OUR WORK

1159 </span>× 85 = 98515
<span>
So, we were right!! :) 

So, there would be 1159 trees on each acre.

Hope I helped ya!!

This sequence represents the diameters of circles used to create an art project: 2.5 cm, 3.1 cm, 3.7 cm, 4.3 cm Let f(n) represe
vlabodo [156]
The diameters of the circles given are listed as: 2.5 cm, 3.1 cm, 3.7 cm, and 4.3 cm. It can be observed that there is a common difference between the terms of the progression such that the difference between the first two terms is 0.6 cm. The difference between the third and the second is also 0.6, and so on. Thus, the equation that will be able to represent the given is,
                                   <em> f(n) = 2.5 + 0.6(n - 1)</em>
