Remember
$(x^a)(x^b)=x^{a+b}$
so
$((-19)^5)((-19)^{11})=(-19)^{5+11}=(-19)^{16}$

Reagan scored 1140 on the SAT. The distribution of SAT scores in a reference population is normally distributed with mean 1000 a

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Jessie scored higher than Reagan.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Reagan scored 1140 on the SAT. The distribution of SAT scores in a reference population is normally distributed with mean 1000 and standard deviation 100.

Jessie scored 30 on the ACT. The distribution of ACT scores in a reference population is normally distributed with mean 17 and standard deviation 5.

For finding who performed better on the standardized exams, we have to calculate the z-scores for both people.

1. <u>Finding z-score for Reagan;</u>

Let X = distribution of SAT scores

SO, X ~ Normal( $\mu=1000, \sigma^{2}=100^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean = 1000

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 100

Now, Reagan scored 1140 on the SAT, that is;

z-score = $\frac{1140-1000}{100}$ = 1.4

2. <u>Finding z-score for Jessie;</u>

Let X = distribution of ACT scores

SO, X ~ Normal( $\mu=17, \sigma^{2}=5^{2}$ )

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

Z = $\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\mu$ = population mean = 17

$\sigma$ = standard deviation = 5

Now, Jessie scored 30 on the ACT, that is;

z-score = $\frac{30-17}{5}$ = 2.6

This means that Jessie scored higher than Reagan because Jessie's standardized score was 2.6, which is 2.6 standard deviations above the mean and Reagan's standardized score was 1.4, which is 1.4 standard deviations above the mean.

Please solve the problem.

Deffense [45]

OK. I did it, and I have the solution.
_____________________________________

The length of the deck is (5 + 2x) .
The width of the deck is   (4 + 2x) .

If the deck didn't have that big hole in the middle where the pool is,
then its area would be

   (5 + 2x) · (4 + 2x) .

When you multiply that all out, you get    Area = 4x² + 18x + 20

and the question tells us that the area of the whole big rectangle is 90 yds² .
So we can write

   4x² + 18x + 20 = 90 .

Subtract 90 from each side:    4x² + 18x - 70 = 0
Divide each side by 2 :    2x² + 9x - 35 = 0

You can use the quadratic equation to solve that and find out that
x = 2.5 yards, and that's what the question is asking you.
___________________________________________________

That makes the deck 10 yds high and 9 yds wide.

Total area of the whole big rectangle, (deck + pool ), = 90 yds².
