Answer:

a)

Z = -1.58

Z = -1.58 means that a reading speed of 340 wpm is 1.58 standard deviations below the mean reading speed.

b)

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 means that a reading speed of 475 wpm is 0.67 standard deviations above the mean reading speed.

c)

Z = -0.25

Z = -0.25 means that a reading speed of 420 wpm is 0.25 standard deviations below the mean reading speed.

d)

Z = 2.92

Z = 2.92 means that a reading speed of 610 wpm is 2.92 standard deviations above the mean reading speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations a measure X is above or below the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 435, \sigma = 60

a. 340 wpm

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

Z = \frac{340 - 435}{60}

Z = -1.58

Z = -1.58 means that a reading speed of 340 wpm is 1.58 standard deviations below the mean reading speed.

b. 475 wpm

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

Z = \frac{475 - 435}{60}

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 means that a reading speed of 475 wpm is 0.67 standard deviations above the mean reading speed.

c. 420wpm

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

Z = \frac{420 - 435}{60}

Z = -0.25

Z = -0.25 means that a reading speed of 420 wpm is 0.25 standard deviations below the mean reading speed.

d. 610wpm

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

Z = \frac{610 - 435}{60}

Z = 2.92

Z = 2.92 means that a reading speed of 610 wpm is 2.92 standard deviations above the mean reading speed.

A ′ B ′ C ′ triangle, A, prime, B, prime, C, prime is the image of △ A B C △ABCtriangle, A, B, C under a rotation about the orig
erma4kov [3.2K]

The angle of rotation of triangle ABC to A'B'C is 105°

<h3>How to illustrate the information?</h3>

It should be noted that the rotation from ABC to A'B'C is in a clockwise direction.

Point B is also on the x axis and point B' is in the second quadrant.

In this case, the angle that depicts the second quadrant is 105°.

In conclusion, the correct option is D.

The complete question is:

Triangle A’ B’ C’ is the image of A B C under a rotation about the origin, (0,0)

Determine the angle of rotation

A. -105 degrees

B. -75 degrees

C. 75 degrees

D. 105 degrees
