Answer:

Z=-2

This value means that the score of Rachel 550 it's 2 deviations below the mean of the population \mu=600

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

\mu=600 represent the population mean for the Graduate Record Exam (GRE)

\sigma=25 represent the population standard deviation for Graduate Record Exam (GRE)

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(600,25)  

Where \mu=600 and \sigma=25

We want to find the z score for a score of 550. And in order to do this we need to apply the formula for the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

z=\frac{550-600}{25}=-2

So the answer for our case would be Z=-2

This value means that the score of Rachel 550 it's 2 deviations below the mean of the population \mu=600

There are eight students in a class. Only one of them has passed Exam P/1 and only one of them has passed Exam FM/2. No student
Svetach [21]

Answer: There is probability of 0.57 chances that exactly three students from a group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 8

Number of student who has passed Exam P/1 = 1

Number of student who has passed Exam FM/2 = 1

No student has passed more than one exam.

According to question, exactly three students from a randomly chose group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.

So, Probability will be

\frac{^6C_3\times ^2C_1}{^8C_4}\\\\=\frac{20\times 2}{70}\\\\=\frac{4}{7}\\\\=0.57

Hence, there is probability of 0.57 chances that exactly three students from a group of four students have not passed Exam P/1 or Exam FM/2.
