Mathematics
1 answer:
Dima020 [189]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-3=-2

8x-3+3=-2+3

8x=1

divide both sides by 8

x=1/8

X(x+7)=0 solve whatever this id
Anit [1.1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

x(x + 7) = 0

By Zero Product rule,

either x = 0 or (x + 7) = 0.

=> x = 0 or x = -7.

SAT scores are normed so that, in any year, the mean of the verbal or math test should be 500 and the standard deviation 100. as
vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) P(X>625)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{625-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{625-500}{100})=P(Z>1.25)

P(Z>1.25)=1-P(Z

b) P(400

P(-1

P(-1

c) z=-0.842

And if we solve for a we got

a=500 -0.842*100=415.8

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 415.8.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

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(500,100)  

Where \mu=500 and \sigma=100

We are interested on this probability

P(X>625)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>625)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{625-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{625-500}{100})=P(Z>1.25)

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table or excel:

P(Z>1.25)=1-P(Z

Part b

We are interested on this probability

P(400

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(400

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-1

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

P(-1

Part c

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.8   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.2 of the area on the left and 0.8 of the area on the right it's z=-0.842. On this case P(Z<-0.842)=0.2 and P(Z>-0.842)=0.8

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=-0.842

And if we solve for a we got

a=500 -0.842*100=415.8

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 415.8.

Find the number of terms, n, in the arithmetic series whose first term is 13, the common difference is 7, and the sum is 2613.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the sum of an arithmetic series is given by:

\displaystyle S = \frac{n}{2}\left(a + x_n\right)

Where <em>n</em> is the number of terms, <em>a</em> is the first term, and <em>x</em>_<em>n</em> is the last term.

We know that the initial term <em>a</em> is 13, the common difference is 7, and the total sum is 2613. Since we want to find the number of terms, we want to find <em>n</em>.

First, find the last term. Recall that the direct formula for an arithmetic sequence is given by:

x_n=a+d(n-1)

Since the initial term is 13 and the common difference is 7:

x_n=13+7(n-1)

Substitute:

\displaystyle S = \frac{n}{2}\left(a + (13+7(n-1)\right)

We are given that the initial term is 13 and the sum is 2613. Substitute:

\displaystyle (2613)=\frac{n}{2}((13)+(13+7(n-1)))

Solve for <em>n</em>. Multiply both sides by two and combine like terms:

5226 = n(26+7(n-1))

Distribute:

5226 = n (26+7n-7)

Simplify:

5226 = 7n^2+19n

Isolate the equation:

7n^2+19n-5226=0

We can use the quadratic formula:

\displaystyle x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

In this case, <em>a</em> = 7, <em>b</em> = 19, and <em>c</em> = -5226. Substitute:

\displaystyle x  =\frac{-(19)\pm\sqrt{(19)^2-4(7)(-5226)}}{2(7)}

Evaluate:

\displaystyle x = \frac{-19\pm\sqrt{146689}}{14} = \frac{-19\pm 383}{14}

Evaluate for each case:

\displaystyle x _ 1 = \frac{-19+383}{14} = 26\text{ or } x _ 2 = \frac{-19-383}{14}=-\frac{201}{7}

We can ignore the second solution since it is negative and non-natural.

Therefore, there are 26 terms in the arithmetic series.

Our answer is A.
