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.

What is the line of symmetry for the parabola whose equation is y = -x2 + x + 3?
iVinArrow [24]
Alright so if I do remember my math correctly, this is how it goes:

- y = -x^2 + x + 3

- x = -b/2a

- x = -1/2(-1)

- x = -1/-2, which = (1/2)

Not quite sure if this was correct, but if it was, hope this helps and you're welcome! :)
