Answer:
The minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A is 81.29.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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:

The professor curves the grades so that the top 8% of students will receive an A. What is the minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A?
The minimum numeric value is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.08 = 0.92. So it is X when Z = 1.405.
So




The minumum numeric grade you have to earn to obtain an A is 81.29.
Answer:
6 1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions (denominator × whole number + numerator / denominator):
9 2/5 = 47/5
3 3/10 = 33/10
Convert improper fractions to have the same denominator:
47/5 × 2/2 = 94/10
Find the difference by subtracting the numerators:
94/10 - 33/10 = 61/10
Convert the answer into a mixed number:
61/10 = 6 1/10
Answer:
E = 3072i - 5904ohms
Step-by-step explanation:
From ohms law recalled that E = IR given already
E = voltage (volts)
I = Current (amps)
R = resistance (ohms)
Therefore, by substitution
I = 16i and R = (2+4)ohms(32+66i)
= 6(32+66i) ohms
= (192+396i)ohms
E = (16i)×(192+396i)
E = 3072i + 5904i²
Recall that i² = -1 from complex number
E = 3072i +5904(-1)
E = 3072i - 5904ohms

I don't really know how to explain this one but I got: (7m-6n)(7m-6n)
Based on the information given, there are 2 possibilities:
1) the hypotenuse is the base of the triangles, sitting on the rectangular pedestal
2) the right angle touches the pedestal, with the base equalling the pedestal length
In 1) it is pretty straightforward, because the right angle is the apex (top). The base is 61m, because the longest side in a right is always the hypotenuse.
So now we need the height (h), which will split the triangle into two 45-45-90 triangles with base and h = 30.5 (1/2 the initial base)
This will make the height off the ground = 30.5+5 = 35.5 m
2) with right angle touching the pedestal, we can only assume that the base equals the pedestal length, 11. Then we need the missing side (h), which we can derive from Pythagorean Theorem:

So in this triangle the height off ground would be 60+5 = 65 m
