5 0

Answer: 687

Step-by-step explanation:

normally distributed

μ = 498

σ = 108

Top 4%

P(X > a) = 0.04

P(Z > a-498/108) = 0.04

Using the table attached, for the top 4%:

0.50 - 0.04 = 0.46

a-498/108 = 1.75

a-498 = 189

a = 687

The minimum score for the scholarship is 687.

Hence, the possible values of the slope include the set of numbers greater than 0.

Velocity ratio of simple machine is the ratio of distance travelled by effort to the distance travelled by load in the machine.Mechanical advantage MA is the ratio of output (generated by the machine) force to input (applied to the machine) force. So MA = 4 means that for example if you apply 100 N then your machine will multiply that force and generate 400 N.
