Answer:

P(494.6

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.396

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

P(-0.396

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that we have the following info: "The admissiones committees for most masters of business administration (MBA) programs requires the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) as part of the application for new students. It has been shown that the scores on GMAT ar enormally distributed with a mean of 542.3 and a standard deviation of 120.54"

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".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores for GAMT of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(542.3,120.54)  

Where \mu=542.3 and \sigma=120.54

We are interested on this probability

P(494.6

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(494.6

And we can find this probability with this difference:

P(-0.396

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

P(-0.396

A shopper at a local supermarket spent the following amounts in her last eight trips to the store: $32.92 $14.14 $30.80 $28.34 $
alexdok [17]

Answer:

$75.58

The amount spent of $75.58 is most likely an outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

An outliers are unusual values in a dataset, they are data values that are extremely higher or extremely lower when compared to the other values in a data (data points that are far from other data points)

For the case above, give a dataset;

$32.92 $14.14 $30.80 $28.34 $75.58 $36.33 $33.51 $22.94

$75.58 is extremely far from other value. So $75.58 is an outlier in the given dataset.

Answer:  The first option with sss as part of the proof

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of the arcs drawn in the constructions are the same, so when the line is drawn, the lengths of the sides will all be the same.  SSS is proof of congruence.

CPCTC is an acronym for "corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent."
