Direct variation is when $\dfrac{y}{x}$ is the same for each coordinate.

Indirect variation is when x · y is the same for each coordinate.

11. Answer: Direct Variation

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin {array}{c||c|c|c|c|c}x&12&18&23&29&34\\y&132&198&253&319&374\\\\\dfrac{y}{x}&\dfrac{132}{12}=11&\dfrac{198}{18}=11&\dfrac{253}{23}=11&\dfrac{319}{29}=11&\dfrac{374}{34}=11\\\end{array} \\\\\\\text{The coordinates x and y show a direct variation.}$

12. Answer: Indirect Variation

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin {array}{c||c|c|c|c|c}x&4&6&8&8.4&12\\y&21&14&10.5&10&7\\x\cdot y&4\cdot 21=84&6\cdot 14=84&8\cdot 10.5=84&8.4\cdot 10=84&12\cdot 7=84\\\end{array} \\\\\\\text{The coordinates x and y show an indirect variation.}$

A sample of size 126 will be drawn from a population with mean 26 and standard deviation 3. Use the TI-84 calculator.

Answer:

1. The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2. The 55th percentile is 26.38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 26 and standard deviation 3.

This means that $\mu = 26, \sigma = 3$
