Use z scores to compare the given values.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Effectus [21]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

Z score is used to measure by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by the formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\ \\Where\ \mu=mean, x=raw\ score, \sigma=standard\ deviation

For the male:

μ = 3259.8 g, σ = 869.7 g

Hence for a male who weighs 1600 g, the z score is:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} =\frac{1600-3259.8}{869.7}=-1.91

For the female:

μ = 3000.9 g, σ = 550.8 g

Hence for a female who weighs 1600 g, the z score is:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} =\frac{1600-3000.9}{550.8}=-2.54

Since the z score for the male is z= -1.91 and the z score for the female is z= -2.54 the  male has the weight that is more extreme.

galben [10]
<span>Let us start with the schnauzers, the easiest one to imagine. Let us assume that there were x number of schnauzers. Scottie's are 3 more than schnauzers. So their number is x+3 Wire haired terriers are 5 less than twice the number of schnauzers. So their number is 2x -5 (2x for twice the number of schnauzers) Now add all these numbers. That is x + x+3 + 2x-5 = 4x -2 The total number of dogs, 78, is given in the question Now we know that 4x -2 =78 4x = 78 +2 = 80 Therefore x = 80/4 = 20. So there were 20 schnauzers, 23 Scottie’s and 35 wire haired terriers</span>

The elephants at the zoo eat 3 2/3 buckets of bananas each day. The zookeeper bought 7 1/3 buckets of bananas. How many days wil
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: 2 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:

= 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day

The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:

= 22/3 buckets

To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:

= 22/3 ÷ 11/3

= 22/3 * 3/11

= 66/33

= 2 days

<em>If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </em>
