Answer:

  1. Elanor's standardized score is  1.19
  2. Gerald's standardized score is 0.72
  3. Elanor has higher score

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare Elanor's and Gerald's math scores, we need to standardize them and calculate their z-scores.

z score can be calculated using the formula

z=\frac{X-M}{s} where

  • X is the student's score
  • M is the mean score of the exam
  • s is the standard deviation of the exam

Elanor's standardized score is:

z(e) = \frac{680-554}{106} ≈ 1.19

Gerald's standardized score is:

z(g)= \frac{27-24.7}{3.2} ≈ 0.72

Since z(e) > z(g), Elanor has higher score

(1) Tom took a trip of 1,020 miles. He traveled by train at 55 miles an hour and the same number of hours by plane at 285 mph.
Maurinko [17]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B) 6 hours

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let h represent the total trip time. Then h/2 is the time spent traveling at each speed. The distance covered is ...

... distance = speed · time

The sum of the distances in each mode is the total distance.

... 1020 = 55·h/2 +285·h/2

... 2040 = h·(55+285) . . . . multiply by 2

... 2040/340 = h = 6 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of h

The trip took a total of 6 hours.

Monthly rent at Lake View Apartments has increased annually and is modeled by the exponential equation y = 2,400(1.04)x. What is
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The percent increase per year is 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=2,400(1.04^x)

This is a exponential function of the form

y=a(b^x)

where

y represent the monthly rent at Lake View Apartments

x represent the number of years

a is the initial value (y-intercept)

b is the base

r is the rate or percent increase

b=(1+r)

The percent increase per year is the base of the exponential function decreased by 1.

so

r=b-1

In this problem we have

a=\$2,400 ---> initial value

b=1.04\\r=1.04-1=0.04=4\%

Therefore

The percent increase per year is 4%
