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.

(3.8 x 10 ^ -6) x (2.37 x 10 ^ -3)<br><br> Enter the answer in science notification
Black_prince [1.1K]

Multiply the coefficients and the powers of 10 with each other:

(3.8 \times 10^{-6}) \times (2.37 \times 10^{-3}) = (3.8\times2.37) \times (10^{-6} \times10^{-3})

The numeric part simply yields

3.8\times2.37 = 9.006

As for the powers of 10, you have to add the exponents, using the rule

a^b \times a^c = a^{b+c}

So, we have

10^{-6} \times10^{-3} = 10^{-6-3} = 10^{-9}

So, the final answer is

9.006\times 10^{-9}
