Answer:

Insufficient data.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we need to find the percent decrease in the price of the stock during the market decline of March 1, 2001, to March 1, 2002,

i.e \frac{\text{Price of stocks on 1 March 2001 - Price of stock 1 March 2002}}{\text{Price on 2001}}\times 100

(1)

∵ The price of the stock during March 1, 2001 = $56.20,

So, the percentage decrease = \frac{56.20 - \text{Price of stock March 1, 2002}}{\text{Price on 2001}}\times 100

Thus, data is insufficient to find the percentage decrease.

(2) ∵ The price of the stock during January 1, 2002 = 1 quarter of $56.20,

=\frac{1}{4}(56.20)

= $ 14.05

i.e. we have neither price in 1 march 2001 nor price in 1 march 2002.

Thus, data is insufficient to find the percentage decrease.

Even we combined the statements (1) and (2),

The data is insufficient to find the percentage decrease.

A college requires applicants to have an ACT score in the top 12% of all test scores. The ACT scores are normally distributed, w
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) The lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement is 27.0225.

b) 156 would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement

c) The lowest score that would meet the colleges requirement would be decreased to 26.388.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

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 = 21.5, \sigma = 4.7

a. Find the lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement.

This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.12 = 0.88. So it is X when Z = 1.175.

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

1.175 = \frac{X - 21.5}{4.7}

X - 21.5 = 1.175*4.7

X = 27.0225

The lowest test score that a student could get and still meet the colleges requirement is 27.0225.

b. If 1300 students are randomly selected, how many would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement?

Top 12%, so 12% of them.

0.12*1300 = 156

156 would be expected to have a test score that would meet the colleges requirement

c. How does the answer to part (a) change if the college decided to accept the top 15% of all test scores?

It would decrease to the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 1-0.15 = 0.85. So X when Z = 1.04.

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

1.04 = \frac{X - 21.5}{4.7}

X - 21.5 = 1.04*4.7

X = 26.388

The lowest score that would meet the colleges requirement would be decreased to 26.388.
