Mr. Mandel gave his class 12 minutes to read. 5 1/2 pages in that time. At what rate, in pages per hour, did Claire read?

1 answer:

8 0

5 1/2 pages in 12 minutes.
11/2 pages in 12 minutes

How many pages in an hour?
well, an hour has 60 minutes

Let's write a proportion
11/2 / 12 = x/60
cross multiply
(11/2 * 60) = 12x
330 = 12x
divide both sides by 12
27.5 or 27 1/2 = x

27.5 pages per hour.

Hope this helps

mylen [45]

Given:Sample mean= 57

Standard Deviation= 9
score of 59

we go to our standard formula:

(score - mean) / sd = z
(59 - 57) / 9 = z

2/9 = z

0.2222 = z
Failing score cutoff would be equal to Mean - 2SD = 67 - 2(9) = 48 is failing score cutoff.
