28. The ratio of games they won to total games played = 12: 14 = 6: 7.
29. Max's pay rate is 9.50 dollars per hour.
30. The value of n is 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; Heather's team won 12 games out of 14. To find the ratio of games won to the total number of games we divide the number of games won to the number of games played.
The ratio of games won to games played = 12: 14, dividing both sides by 2 we simplify the ratio. So the simplified ratio is 6: 7.
Step 2; Max earns $380 for working 40 hours. So to find how much he earns an hour we divide the total money earned in n hours divided by n number of hours.
Money earned per hour = = $9.50. So Max's pay rate per hour is $9.50.
Step 3; The given proportion is
=
, to solve this we keep n on the left-hand side while we multiply the 12 on to the other side
n = × 12 =
× 12 =
= 9.
Answer:
The minimum score needed to be in the top 5% of the scores on the test is 172.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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:
What is the minimum score needed to be in the top 5% of the scores on the test?
The 100-5 = 95th percentile, which is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.95. So it is X when Z = 1.645.
The minimum score needed to be in the top 5% of the scores on the test is 172.9.
