Suppose the salaries of university professors are approximately normally distributed with a mean of $65,000 and a standard devia

tion of $7,000. If a random sample of size 25 is taken and the mean is calculated, what is the probability that the mean value will be between $62,500 and $64,000

Answer:

0.2009

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean(μ) = 65000

Standard deviation (σ) = 7000

n = 25

Let X be the random variable which is a measure of salaries of university professors

Z = (μ - x) /σ/√n

Pr(62500 ≤ x ≤ 64000) = ???

Pr((65000 - 62500)/7000/√25 ≤ z ≤ (65000 - 64000) / 7000/√25)

= Pr(2500 / 7000/5 ≤ z ≤ 1000 / 7000/5)

= Pr(2500 / 1400 ≤ z ≤ 1000/1400)

= Pr(1.79 ≤ z ≤ 0.714)

= Pr(0 ≤ z ≤ 1.79) - Pr(0 ≤ z ≤ 0.714)

From the normal distribution table we have

0.4633 - 0.2624

= 0.2009

7(x+3)=-2(x-5) <br> Help pls?
olganol [36]

Answer:

x = -11/9

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x+3)=-2(x-5)

Distribute

7x+21 = -2x+10

Add 2x to each side

7x+21 +2x = -2x+10+2x

9x +21 = 10

Subtract 21 from each side

9x +21-21 = 10-21

9x = -11

Divide each side by 9

9x/9 = -11/9

x = -11/9

If Kevin wants a 90 average in math after 5 tests and his first 4 tests are 76, 92, 89 and 97 what does he need on the fifth tes
Keith_Richards [23]
You need to understand that you're solving for the average, which you already know: 90. Since you know the values of the first three exams, and you know what your final value needs to be, just set up the problem like you would any time you're averaging something.
Solving for the average is simple:
Add up all of the exam scores and divide that number by the number of exams you took.
(87 + 88 + 92) / 3 = your average if you didn't count that fourth exam.
Since you know you have that fourth exam, just substitute it into the total value as an unknown, X:
(87 + 88 + 92 + X) / 4 = 90
Now you need to solve for X, the unknown:
87
+
88
+
92
+
X
4
(4) = 90 (4)
Multiplying for four on each side cancels out the fraction.
So now you have:
87 + 88 + 92 + X = 360
This can be simplified as:
267 + X = 360
Negating the 267 on each side will isolate the X value, and give you your final answer:
X = 93
Now that you have an answer, ask yourself, "does it make sense?"
I say that it does, because there were two tests that were below average, and one that was just slightly above average. So, it makes sense that you'd want to have a higher-ish test score on the fourth exam.

Neporo4naja [7]
61 = 3b + 7

3b + 7 = 61

3b = 61 - 7

3b = 54

b = 54/3

b = 18.

The point B(1, 1) is rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin. What are the co
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Given that the point B is (1,1) is rotate 90° counterclockwise around the origin.

We need to determine the coordinates of the resulting point B'.

<u>Coordinates of the point B':</u>

The general rule to rotate the point 90° counterclockwise around the origin is given by

(x, y) \rightarrow(-y, x)

The new coordinate can be determined by interchanging the coordinates of x and y and changing the sign of y.

Now, we shall determine the coordinates of the point B' by substituting (1,1) in the general rule.

Thus, we have;

Coordinates of B' = (1,1) \rightarrow(-1,1)

Thus, the coordinates of the resulting point B' is (-1,1)
