Answer:

-2.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a normal distribution has a mean of 137 and a standard deviation of 7. We are asked to find the z-score corresponding to data value 121.

We will use z-score formula to solve our given problem.

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

z = Z-score,

x = Sample score,

\mu = Mean,

\sigma = Standard deviation.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

z=\frac{121-137}{7}

z=\frac{-16}{7}

z=-2.2857142857

Upon rounding to two decimal places, we will get:

z\approx -2.29

Therefore, z-score corresponding to data value 121 would be -2.29.

Answer:

The z-score for a data value of 121 is -2.29.

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 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:

\mu = 137, \sigma = 7

Find the z-score for a data value of 121.

This is Z when X = 121. So

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

Z = \frac{121 - 137}{7}

Z = -2.29

The z-score for a data value of 121 is -2.29.

Hello and Good Morning/Afternoon

<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:

<u>To find the solution to a system of equation</u>

  ⇒ <em>must set</em> the equations equal to each other

     ⇒ and solve

<u>Let's put that into action</u>

  x^2-2x+3 = -2x + 12\\x^2-2x+2x+3-12=0\\x^2-9=0\\(x+3)(x-3)=0

  • At this point, to make the whole thing equal zero

          ⇒ either 'x+3' or 'x-3' equals zero

              ⇒ must find 'x' that satisify either equation

                    x-3=0\\x=3\\\\x+3=0\\x=-3

<u>Let's find the corresponding f(x) to each x-value</u>

  f(3) = -2(3)+12=-6+12 = 6\\\\f(-3) = -2(-3) + 12=6+12=18

<u>Therefore the solutions are (3,6) and (-3,18)</u>

<u />

<u>Answer: (3,6), (-3,18)</u>

<u></u>

Hope that helps!

Write an equation for the line that passes through (4,-6) and (-7,-6). Is the line parallel or perpendicular to the y-axis?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y = -6, perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the points to find the slope of the line:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{-6-(-6)}{-7-4} =\frac{-6+6}{-7-4}=\frac{0}{-11}=0

Then, using point-slope form, choose one set of coordinates to use for y1 and x1:

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})

y-(-6)=0(x-4)

y+6=0

y=-6

Since the slope of the line is zero, it's a horizontal line. The y-axis is a vertical line, which means that the line is perpendicular to the y-axis.

Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after his break

<h3>How to calculate the number of miles Andrew walked after the break ? </h3>

Andrew went for a walk

The trail he took is 1 1/4 miles long

He walked for 1/2 miles before stopping for a water break

After the break, he continued the journey

He continued the journey without stopping

The distance Andrew walked after his break can be calculated as follows

5/4 - 1/2

= 5-2/4

= 3/4

Hence Andrew walked for 3/4 miles after taking the break
