Answer:

The exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided we know that

Principal amount: $5,870

Interest rate: 12% -> 0.12

Time: 7 months (From June to December)

When you know the principal amount, the rate, and the time, the amount of interest can be calculated by using the formula:

I=P\cdot r\cdot t

where P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the time in years.

We need to convert the 7 months into 1 year.

7 \>months \cdot \frac{1 year}{12 months} = \frac{7}{12} year

Now we can use the above formula

I=P\cdot r\cdot t=5870\cdot 0.12 \cdot \frac{7}{12} \\I = 0.12\cdot \frac{7\cdot \:5870}{12}\\I = 0.12\cdot \frac{20545}{6}\\I = \frac{2465.4}{6}\\I = 410.9

Therefore the exact interest on $5,870 at 12% is $410.9

Suppose that IQ scores have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 95 and a standard deviation of 15. Using the empirical rul
professor190 [17]

Answer:

2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 95

Standard deviation = 15

Using the empirical rule, what percentage of IQ scores are no more than 65?

65 = 95 - 2*15

So 65 is two standard deviations below the mean.

By the Empirical Rule, 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean. Of those 5% which are not, 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations above the mean and 2.5% are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean.

So 2.5% of IQ scores are no more than 65

The graph of a linear relationship is shown. Which equation best represents the relationship between x and y in the graph
Finger [1]

Answer:

B.  y = -3/4x + 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Take two points from the graph, let's use (-2, 4) and (2, 1):

Find slope:

 m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

     = (1 - 4) / (2 - (-2))

     = -3/4

Find y-intercept using slope above and anyone point:

y = mx + b

(1) = -3/4(2) + b

1 = -3/2 + b

b = 1 + 3/2

b = 5/2

Equation of line using m and b above:

y = mx + b

y = -3/4x + 5/2
